201230 - 2000W DUAL FUEL INVERTER GENERATOR IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Spark from removed spark plug wire can result in ﬁre or

electrical shock.

When servicing the generator:

Disconnect the spark plug wire and place it where it cannot

contact the plug or any other metal object.

DO NOT check for spark with the plug removed.

Use only approved spark plug testers.

WARNING

Running engines produce heat. Severe burns can occur on

contact. Combustible material can catch ﬁre on contact.

DO NOT touch hot surfaces.

Avoid contact with hot exhaust gases.

Allow equipment to cool before touching.

Maintain at least 3 ft. (91.4 cm) of clearance on all sides to

ensure adequate cooling.

Maintain at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) of clearance from combustible

materials.

WARNING

Rapid retraction of the recoil cord will pull hand and arm

towards the engine faster than you can let go. Broken bones,

fractures, bruises or sprains could result. Unintentional

startup can result in entanglement, traumatic amputation or

laceration.

When starting engine, pull the recoil cord slowly until

resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.

DO NOT start or stop the engine with electrical devices

plugged in and turned on.

WARNING

Although the generator contains a spark arrester, maintain

a minimum distance of 5 ft. (1.5 m) from dry vegetation to

prevent ﬁres.

CAUTION

Exceeding the generator’s running capacity can damage the

generator and/or electrical devices connected to it.

DO NOT overload the generator.

DO NOT tamper with the governed speed.

DO NOT modify the generator in any way.

201230 - 2000W DUAL FUEL INVERTER GENERATOR IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Fuel Safety

DANGER

GASOLINE, GASOLINE VAPORS, AND PROPANE ARE HIGHLY

FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE

Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

Gasoline and gasoline vapors:

–Gasoline vapors are highly ﬂammable and explosive.

–Gasoline vapors can cause a ﬁre or explosion if ignited.

–Gasoline is a liquid fuel and the resulting gasoline vapors can

ignite and cause a ﬁre or explosion.

–Gasoline is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned up

immediately if spilled on skin or clothes.

–Gasoline has a distinctive odor, this will help detect potential

leaks quickly.

–In any petroleum gas ﬁre, ﬂames should not be extinguished

unless by doing so the fuel supply valve can be turned OFF.

This is because if a ﬁre is extinguished and a supply of fuel is

not turned OFF, then an explosion hazard could be created.

–Gasoline vapors expand and contract with ambient

temperatures. Never ﬁll the gasoline tank past the red FULL

indicator on the fuel ﬁlter, as gasoline vapors needs room to

expand if temperatures rise.

WARNING

Propane/LPG (liquiﬁed petroleum gas) and LPG Vapors:

–LPG is a hydrocarbon gas that exists in a liquiﬁed form and

it’s vapors are highly ﬂammable and explosive.

–LPG and it’s vapors are under pressure and can cause a

ﬁre or explosion if ignited.

–LPG vapors are heavier than air and will settle in low

places while dissipating.

–LPG itself is odorless and tasteless. For safety, a chemical

is added to give it an odor to help detect leaks quickly.

–If a leak is detected, IMMEDIATELY turn OFF the gas

supply.

–In the event of an LPG ﬁre and only when safe to do so,

ﬁrst close the regulator valve OFF and then use a dry

powder extinguisher to put out the ﬁre. This is because if

a ﬁre is extinguished before the regulator valve is closed

OFF, then an explosion hazard condition could be created.

–Always keep the LPG cylinder in an upright position.

–LPG is a skin irritant and can cause severe cold burns

similar to frostbite.

–Always wear proper protective gloves when connecting to

and disconnecting from a propane bottle.

–Always keep LPG away from sparks, open ﬂames, pilot

lights, heat and other sources of ignition.

WARNING

When adding or removing gasoline:

DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.

Always stop the engine and allow to cool for a minimum of two

minutes before refueling.

Always loosen gasoline cap slowly to release vapor pressure

and to keep fuel from escaping around the gasoline cap.

Always replace and tighten the gasoline cap securely after

fueling.

Never remove the gasoline cap or add gasoline while the

engine is running or when the engine is hot.

Only ﬁll or drain gasoline outdoors in a well-ventilated area.

DO NOT pump gasoline directly into the generator at the gas

station.

Always store gasoline in an EPA/CARB compliant container or

to transfer the gasoline to the generator.

DO NOT overﬁll the gasoline tank.

Always keep gasoline, propane and natural gas vapors away

from sparks, open ﬂames, pilot lights, heat and other sources

of ignition.

201230 - 2000W DUAL FUEL INVERTER GENERATOR IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

When starting the generator:

DO NOT attempt to start a damaged generator.

Always check that the gasoline cap, air ﬁlter, spark plug, fuel

lines and exhaust system are properly in place.

Always allow spilled gasoline to evaporate fully before

attempting to start the engine.

Always check the connections of the supply hose for leaks

before using LPG fuel.

Always be certain that the generator is resting ﬁrmly on level

ground.

WARNING

When operating the generator:

DO NOT move or tip the generator during operation.

WARNING

When transporting or servicing the generator:

Always check that the fuel valve is in the OFF position and the

gasoline tank is empty.

Always check that the LPG supply hose is disconnected and

stored securely away from the generator after use.

Disconnect the spark plug wire.

WARNING

When storing the generator:

Always store away from sparks, open ﬂames, pilot lights, heat

and other sources of ignition.

Never store generator, gasoline or LPG cylinders near

furnaces, water heaters, or any other appliances that produce

heat or have automatic ignitions.

DANGER

NEVER place a gasoline container, gasoline tank, LPG cylinder

or any combustible material in the path of the exhaust stream

during operation of the engine.

WARNING

Never use a gasoline container, gasoline tank, LPG connector

hose, LPG cylinder or any other fuel item that is broken, cut,

torn or damaged.
