could charge conductive surfaces in con-

tact with the generator.

Exceeding the load capacity of the gen-

erator 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 func-

tioning normally could result in fire or

electrocution.

Removal of guarding could expose elec-

trically charged components and result

in electrocution.

Operate generator in a clean, dry, well

ventilated area. Make sure hands are

dry before touching unit.

Inspect extension cords before use

and replace with new if required.
