This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights, which vary from PROVINCE TO PROVINCE. Sold by Sears Canada, Inc., Toronto, Ont. 2 - ENG SAFETY GUIDELINES - DEFINITIONS This manual contains information that is important for you to know and understand. This information relates to protecting YOUR SAFETY and PREVENTING EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS. To help you recognize this information, we use the symbols to the right. Please read the manual and pay attention to these sections. A DANGER URGENT SAFETY INFORMATION - A HAZARD THAT WILL CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE. AWARNING IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION - A HAZARD THAT MIGHT CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE. ACAUTION Information for preventing damage to equipment. NOTE Information that you should pay special attention to. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS • AWARNING When using this product basic precautions should always be followed including the following: ADANGER RISK OF ELECTROCUTION AND FIRE HAZARD WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOWTO PREVENT IT Attempting to connect generator directly to the electrical system of any building structure. Back feeding electricity through a building's electrical system to the outside utility feed lines could endanger repair persons attempting to restore service. Attempting to connect to the incoming utility service could result in electrocution. Restoration of electrical service while the generator is connected to the incoming utility could result in a fire or serious damage if a isolator switch is not installed. Never back feed electricity through a structure's electrical system. To connect to a structure's electrical system in a safe manner and always have a Double-Throw Transfer Switch installed by a qualified electrician, in compliance with local ordinances. (When installing a Double-Throw Transfer Switch, a minimum of 10 gauge wiring must be used.) Inadequate electrical grounding of generator. The failure of one of the generator’s electrical devices, a broken wire, wet surfaces, etc. could result in the entire unit becoming electrically charged. Contact with electrically charged surfaces could result in electrocution. Make sure that the unit is connected to an appropriate electrical ground, in accordance with the requirement of the National Electric Code. See page 8 for grounding instructions. 3 - ENG READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE GENERATOR. ADANGER RISK OF ELECTROCUTION AND FIRE fcont’dl HAZARD WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOWTO PREVENT IT Operation of generator in rain, wet, icy, or flooded conditions. Water is an excellent conductor of electricity! Water which comes in contact with electricity charged components can transmit electricity to the frame and other surfaces, resulting in electrical shock to anyone contacting them. Operate generator in a clean, dry, well ventilated area. Make sure hands are dry before touching unit. Use of worn damaged, undersized or ungrounded extension cords. Contact with worn or damaged extension cords could result in electrocution. Use of undersize extension cords could result in overheating of the wires or attached items, resulting in fire. Use of ungrounded cordsets could prevent operation of circuit breakers and result in electrical shock. Inspect extension cords before use and replace with new if required. Use proper size (wire gauge) cordset for application. Always use electrically grounded cordset. Placing generator on or against highly conductive surface, such as a steel walkway or metal roof. Improper connection of items to generator. Operation of unit when damaged, or with guards or panels removed. Accidental leakage of electrical current could charge conductive surfaces in contact with the generator. Exceeding the load capacity of the generator by attaching too many items, or items with very high load ratings to it could result in overheating of some items or their attachment wiring resulting in fire or electrical shock. Attempting to use the unit when it has been damaged, or when it is not functioning normally could result in fire or electrocution. Removal of guarding could expose electrically charged components and result in electrocution. Place generator on low conductivity surface such as a concrete slab. Read the load rating chart and instructions on page 9,10 and 11. Make sure that the summation of electrical loads for all attachments does not exceed the load rating of the generator. Do not operate generator with mechanical or electrical problem. Have unit repaired by an Authorized Service Center. Do not operate generator with protective guarding removed. 4 - ENG READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE GENERATOR. AWARNING RISK OF FIRE HAZARD WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT Attempting to fill the fuel tank while the engine is running. Sparks, fire, hot objects Gasoline and gasoline vapors can become ignited by coming in contact with hot comp...
