Installation Notes

Portable generators must be operated outdoors and away from windows, doors, and vents to prevent carbon monoxide accumulation — never run indoors or in enclosed spaces. Connection to building wiring requires a transfer switch installed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 702. Refuel only when the unit is cool and the engine is off. Follow all applicable local codes and manufacturer guidelines for grounding.
