The operator (driver) is responsible for proper and
safe use of the vehicle, equipment on the vehicle, and
the safety of all vehicle occupants. We strongly rec­
ommend that the operator read this Owner's Manual
and thoroughly understand all instructions before
using this equipment. We also strongly recommend
instructing other occupants in the vehicle to properly
start and operate the generator. This prepares them if
they need to operate the equipment in an emergency.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
It is the operator's responsibility to perform all safety
checks; to make sure that all maintenance for safe
operation is performed promptly; and to have the
equipment checked by an Authorized Dealer periodi­
cally. Normal maintenance service and replacement
of parts are the responsibility of the Owner/Operator
and, as such, are not considered defects in materials
or workmanship within the terms of the warranty.
Individual operating habits and usage contribute to
the need for maintenance service.
Proper maintenance and care of your recreational
vehicle generator assures a minimum number of
problems and keeps your operating expenses at a
minimum. See your authorized Dealer/Distributor for
service aids and accessories.
