If connected devices overheat, turn them off and

disconnect them from the generator.

DO NOT use the generator if:

– Electrical output is lost

– Equipment sparks, smokes or emits ﬂames

– Equipment vibrates excessively

CAUTION

Rapid retraction of the starter cord will pull hand and

arm towards the engine faster than you can let go.

Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,

traumatic amputation or laceration.

Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could result.

When starting engine, pull the starter cord slowly

until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid

kickback.

CAUTION

Medical and Life Support Uses.

In case of emergency, call 911 immediately.

NEVER use this product to power life support

devices or life support appliances.

NEVER use this product to power medical devices

or medical appliances.

Inform your electricity provider immediately if you

or anyone in your household depends on electrical

equipment to live.

Inform your electrical provider immediately if a

loss of power would cause you or anyone in your

household to experience a medical emergency.

WARNING

For the GFCI receptacles to work properly the

neutral wire must be bonded to ground or to

the generator frame. Your Champion generator

comes with the neutral wire already bonded to

the frame. If the bonding wire is removed then

the GFCI receptacles will no longer function as

designed. If the neutral bonding wire is removed

to accommodate a transfer switch installation for

connection to a house or building, then the transfer

switch must not switch off the neutral connection

to ground within the building. Champion Power

Equipment recommends that you consult with

a licensed, local electrician. Due to the variety

of local codes, we cannot speciﬁcally advise

you regarding modiﬁcations to the wiring of your

portable generator.

WARNING

Operation of this equipment may create sparks that

can start ﬁres around dry vegetation.

A spark arrestor may be required. The operator

should contact local ﬁre agencies for laws or

regulations relating to ﬁre prevention requirements.

WARNING

ENGLISH 100155

Gasoline and Gasoline Vapors (Gas):

– GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AND

EXPLOSIVE.

– Gasoline can cause a ﬁre or explosion if ignited.

– Gasoline is a liquid fuel but it’s vapors can ignite.

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

immediately if spilled on skin or clothes.

– Gas has a distinctive odor, this will help detect

potential leaks quickly.

– In any 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.

– Gas expands or contracts with ambient temperatures.

Never ﬁll the gas tank to full capacity, as gas needs

room to expand if temperatures rise.

Liqueﬁed Petroleum Gas (LPG):

– LPG IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE.

– Flammable gas under pressure can cause a ﬁre or

explosion if ignited.

– LPG is heavier than air and can settle in low places

while dissipating.

– LPG has a distinctive odor added to 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.

– When exchanging LPG cylinders, be sure the cylinder

valve is of the same type.

– Always keep the LPG cylinder in an upright position.

– LPG will burn skin if it comes in contact with it.

Keep any and all LPG away from skin at all times.

SAFETY RULES

Fuel Safety

GASOLINE, GASOLINE VAPORS AND LIQUID

PETROLEUM GAS (LPG) ARE HIGHLY

FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE.

Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,

traumatic amputation or laceration.

DANGER

When adding or removing Gasoline:

Turn the generator off and let it cool for at least two

minutes before removing the fuel cap. Loosen the cap

slowly to relieve pressure in the tank.

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

DO NOT pump gas directly into the generator at the gas

station. Use an approved container to transfer the fuel to

the generator.

DO NOT overﬁll the fuel tank.

Always keep fuel away from sparks, open ﬂames, pilot

lights, heat and other sources of ignition.

DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.

When starting the generator:

DO NOT attempt to start a damaged generator.

Make certain that the gas cap, air ﬁlter, spark plug, fuel

lines and exhaust system are properly in place.

Allow spilled fuel to evaporate fully before attempting to

start the engine.

Make certain that the generator is resting ﬁrmly on level

ground.

When operating the generator:

DO NOT move or tip the generator during operation.

DO NOT tip the generator or allow fuel or oil to spill.

When transporting or servicing the generator:

Make certain that the fuel shutoff valve is in the off

position and the fuel tank is empty.

Make certain that a LPG cylinder is not attached to

generator and is securely stowed away.

Disconnect the spark plug wire.

When storing the generator:

Store away from sparks, open ﬂames, pilot lights, heat

and other sources of ignition.

Do not store generator, gas or LPG cylinder near

furnances, water heaters, or any other appliances that
