Generator Location

NEVER operate the generator inside any building,

including garages, basements, crawlspaces and sheds,

enclosure or compartment, including the generator

compartment of a recreational vehicle. 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.

Please consult your local authority. In some areas,

generators must be registered with the local utility.

Generators used at construction sites may be subject to

additional rules and regulations.

This generator must have at least ﬁve feet of clearance

from combustible material. Leave at least three feet

of clearance on all sides of the generator to allow for

adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing.

Place the generator in a well-ventilated area far

away from windows door, and vents. DO NOT place

the generator near vents or intakes where exhaust

fumes could be drawn into occupied or conﬁned

spaces. Carefully consider wind and air currents when

positioning generator.

Even when using a generator correctly, carbon monoxide

may leak into the home. ALWAYS use a battery-powered

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.
