Surge Protection

There is a remote chance that voltage fluctuations may impair the proper functioning of some
sensitive electronic equipment. Electronic devices, including computers and many programmable
appliances may use components that are designed to operate within a narrow voltage range and
may be affected by the portable generator's momentary voltage fluctuations. While there is no
way to prevent all voltage fluctuations, you can take steps to protect your sensitive electronic
equipment. Install a plug-in surge suppressor on the receptacles feeding your sensitive equipment.
Surge suppressors come in single or multi-outlet styles. They are designed to protect against short
duration voltage fluctuations.

7. Stopping the generator

1. Turn off and remove all electrical loads.
Never stop the generator with electrical devices plugged in and turned on.
Never stop the engine by moving the choke to the start position.
Let the generator run at no-load for one minute to stabilize internal temperatures of the engine
and generator.
