2 Study these SAFETY RULES carefully before install- ing, operating or servicing this equipment. Become familiar with this manual and with the unit. The gen- erator can operate safely , efficiently and reliably only if it is properly installed, operated and maintained. Many accidents are caused by failing to follow simple and fundamental rules or p[...]

3 Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling and ven- tilating air is critical to correct generator opera- tion and is required to expel toxic fumes and fuel vapors from the generator compartment. W ithout sufficient cooling airflow , the engine/generator quickly overheats, which causes serious damage to the generator . Do not alter the installation or[...]
