else who will be using or maintaining the generator, review this SurgeMaster Operators manual and

read and understand the Safety, Operation, Maintenance and Trouble Shooting information contained

within this Manual.

All SurgeMaster generators are CSA certied and are "neutral bonded to frame" this is a safety feature

that means that the neutral line of the electrical circuit has been bonded to the frame of the generator. The

purpose is to make fulll advantage of the overcurrent protection device to prevent shocks & electrocution

due to a short circuit from a defective cord or device. In effect this will cause the current from a short circuit

to travel back to the generator and activate the breaker, instead of through a person to ground

The

SurgeMaster Backup Power Series generator

is designed to be a

reliable source of continuous power for the home owner, or

recreational use.

Utilizing robust gas powered engines to provide a steady and dependable

source of power,

in case of power outage,

or when the need arises.

The Backup Power series is intended to be connected directly to the

appliance/equipment requiring electrical power. It is not recommended to

connect these generators to a home electrical system without appropriate

equipment and a qualied electrician to make the connections.

The

SurgeMaster Jobsite Rated Series generator

are designed with the

contractor in mind. Equipped with GFCI protected outlets, these generators

are a safe and dependable source of continuous power on the job site. Small

and portable,

the gas powered engines produce a steady and dependable

source of power,

for all your power tools.

As well having the neutral

conductor bonded to the frame, Jobsite Rated generators feature GFCI

outlet protection, an OSHA requirement when using portable electrical

equipment on job sites.

From home owners, recreational use campers, hunters, snowmobilers, to jobsite contractors, decks,

docks, & fence builders, rugged roll-cage frame to stand-up to jobsite demands, the SurgeMaster

line-up of generators will get you up and running.

Use the Table of Contents or Index as a guide to locate required information. Keep this manual handy for

frequent reference and to pass on to new operators or owners.

7000 series generators require a U1 Lawn & Garden style battery available from your dealer.

Z94216

2.3 SAFETY TRAINING

1. Train all new personnel and review instructions

frequently with existing workers. Safety is a

primary concern in the design and manufacture

of our products. Unfortunately, our efforts to

provide safe equipment can be wiped out by a

single careless act of an operator or bystander.

2. In addition to the design and conguration

of equipment, hazard control and accident

prevention are dependent upon the awareness,

concern, prudence and proper training of

personnel involved in the operation, transport,

maintenance and storage of this equipment.

3. It has been said, "The best safety feature is an

informed, careful operator."

We ask you to be that kind

of an operator. It is the

operator's responsibility to

read and understand ALL

2.7 REFUELING SAFETY

1. Allow the engine to cool if the generator has

been in operation.

2. Refuel only outdoors in a well-ventilated area

with the engine off.

3. Never smoke near fuel, and keep other ames

and sparks away.

4. Do not overll the fuel tank.

5. Always store fuel in an approved

container. Make sure that any

spilled fuel has been wiped up

before starting the engine.

2.11 ELECTRICAL SAFETY

1. The generator produces enough

electric power to cause a serious

shock or electrocution if misused.

2. Using a generator or electrical

appliance in wet conditions

(rain or snow), or near a pool

or sprinkler system, or when

your hands are wet, could

result in electrocution. Keep the

generator and the immediate

area dry.

3. If the generator has been outdoors, unprotected

from the weather, check all of the electrical

components on the control panel before

each use. Moisture can cause a short circuit

in electrical components that could result in

electrocution.

4. Do not connect to a building’s electrical system

unless an transfer / isolation switch has been

installed by a qualied electrician.

5. NEVER tamper with the factory settings of

the engine or engine governor. Engine speed

controls the frequency portion of the electrical

output (60hZ). Personal injury or damage to the

engine or equipment can result if operating in

speed ranges above the maximum or below the

minimum allowable.

2.10 STORAGE SAFETY

1. Store the unit in a well vented area away from

human activity.

2. If possible, store in a dry area, avoid storage

areas with high humidity, because that promotes

rust and corrosion.

3. Avoid any area where power tools are operated

or spark-producing electric motors.

4. Do not allow children to play on or around the

stored machine.

5. Place the generator on a level surface. Tilting or

laying it on its side can cause fuel or oil leakage.

engine running.

4. Inspect all access panels and guards to ensure

they are secured.

5. If the generator has been running, allow the

engine to cool for at least 15 minutes before

loading the generator on the transport vehicle.

A hot engine and exhaust system can burn you

and may ignite some materials.

6. Ensure the fuel tank cap is on tight and keep the

generator level when transporting to reduce the

possibility of fuel leakage.

7. Move the fuel valve lever to the OFF position.

8. When using ropes or tie-down straps to secure

the generator for transportation, be sure to only

use the frame bars as attachment points. Do

not fasten ropes or straps to any portions of the

generator body.

9. Do not drink and drive.

10. Just before transport, perform a circle check to

ensure everything is safe and secure.
