DANGER
CARBON MONOXIDE
Using a generator indoors WILL KILL YOU IN MINUTES.
This generator is equipped with CO-Seizer™ Carbon Monoxide protecting system which will help
to protect you in safe. Even so, we still strongly suggest you read the warning contents below to
make sure your safety.
Generator exhaust contains high levels of carbon monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see
or smell. If you can smell the generator exhaust, you are breathing CO. But even If you cannot
smell the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.
· NEVER use a generator inside homes, garages, crawlspaces, or other partly enclosed areas.
Deadly levels of carbon monoxide can build up in these areas. Using a fan or opening windows
and doors does NOT supply enough fresh air.
· ONLY use a generator outdoors and far away from open windows, doors, and vents. These
openings can pull in generator exhaust.
Even when you use a generator correctly, CO may leak into the home. ALWAYS use a batterypowered or battery-backup CO alarm in the home.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the generator has been running, move to fresh air
RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You could have carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING! THE EXHAUST CONTAINS POISONOUS CARBON MONOXIDE GAS THAT
CAN CAUSE LOSS OF CONSCIOUSNESS AND MAY LEAD TO DEATH.
Gasoline and Oil
This product requires oil and fuel. Attempting to start the engine without oil will ruin
the engine and void the warranty. Work in well ventilated area. Keep cigarettes,
flames or sparks away from the work area or where gasoline is stored.
WARNING! GASOLINE IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE AND IS EXPLOSIVE UNDER
CERTAIN CONDITIONS. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
• Gasoline fuel and fumes are flammable and potentially explosive. Use proper fuel storage and
8
handling procedures. Always have multiple ABC class fire extinguishers nearby.
• Keep the generator and surrounding area clean at all times.
Owner’s Manual
General Precautions (cont’d)
Gasoline and Oil (cont’d)
• Fuel or oil spills must be cleaned up immediately. Dispose of fluids and cleaning materials as per
any local, state, or federal codes and regulations. Store oily rags in a covered metal container.
• Never store fuel or other flammable materials near the generator.
• Do not smoke, or allow sparks, flames or other sources of ignition around the engine and fuel tank.
Fuel vapors are explosive.
• Keep grounded conductive objects, such as tools, away from exposed, live electrical parts and
connections to avoid sparking or arcing. These events could ignite fumes or vapors.
• Do not refill the fuel tank while the engine is running or while the engine is still hot. Do not operate
the generator with known leaks in the fuel system.
• Excessive buildup of unburned fuel gases in the exhaust system can create a potentially explosive
condition. This buildup can occur after repeated failed start attempts, valve testing, or hot engine
shutdown. If this occurs, open exhaust system drain plugs, if equipped, and allow the gases to
dissipate before attempting to restart the generator.
• Use only engine manufacturer recommended fuel and oil.

12000W/13000W Dual Fuel Generator
General Precautions (cont’d)
Work Area
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases, or dust. Generators create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a generator. Provide barriers or
shields as needed.
Electrical Safety
• Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the
grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs.
• Grounding provides a low-resistance path to carry electricity away from the
user in the event of an electrical malfunction.
• Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug where one blade is wider than the other.
This plug fits in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not
change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three-wire grounded
power cord and grounded power supply system.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
• Do not expose generator to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a generator will increase the
risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the power cord. Keep power cords away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts.
Replace damaged power cords immediately. Damaged power cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
• When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These
extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the risk of electric shock.
10
Owner’s Manual
General Precautions (cont’d)
Electrical Safety (cont’d)
• All connections and conduits from the generator to the load must only be installed by trained and
licensed electricians, and in compliance with all relevant local, state, and federal electrical codes
and standards, and other regulations where applicable.
• The generator must be earth-grounded for fixed installations in accordance with all relevant
electrical codes and standards before operation.
• Do not attempt to connect or disconnect load connections while standing in water, or on wet or
soggy ground.
• Do not touch electrically energized parts of the generator and interconnecting cables or conductors
with any part of the body, or with any non-insulated conductive object.
• Connect the generator only to a load or electrical system (120 volt) that is compatible with the
electrical characteristics and rated capacities of the generator.
• Before servicing equipment powered by the generator, disconnect the equipment from its power
input.
