0 Place the generator on a firm, level surface: avoid loose sand or snow. If the generator is tilted or overturned, fuel spillage may result. Also, if the gen- erator is overturned or sinks into a soft surface, sand, dirt, or water may enter the generator. 0 To prevent fire hazards and to provide adequate ventilation, keep the generator at least 1 meter (3 feet) away from buildings and other equip- ment during operation. Do not place flammable objects close to the gen- erator. 0 Know how

2. Fuel Check the fuel meter and refill the tank if the fuel level is low. Your engine is designed to use any gasoline that has a pump octane number (y 1 of 86 or higher, or that has a research octane number of 91 or higher. Gasoline pumps at service station normally display the pump oc- tane number. We recommend that you use unleaded fuel because it produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits and extends the life of exhaust system components. Never use stale or contaminated gasoline o

5. GENERATOR USE l To prevent electrical shock from faulty appliances, the generator should be grounded. Connect a length of heavy wire between the ground terminal and the ground source. l Connections for standby power to a building’s electrical system must be made by a qualified electrician and must comply with all applicable laws and electrical codes. Improper connections can allow electrical current from the generator to backfeed into the utility lines. Such backfeed may electrocute u

Oil Alert System The Oil Alert system is designed to prevent engine damage caused by an in- sufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. Before the oil level in the crankcase falls below a safe limit, the Oil Alert system will automatically shut down the engine (the engine switch will remain in the ON position). If the Oil Alert system shuts down the engine, the Oil Alert lamp will flash when you operate the starter, and the engine will not run. If this occurs, add engine oil (P. 8). OIL A
