Safety
•If the load placed on unit exceeds its maximumoutput the unit will automatically shut down toavoid damage
–In the event this happens let the unit sit for a fewminutes, re-evaluate the load and restart
•While in operation keep light on to maintainvisibility when necessary
•Try to avoid use in enclosed areas
–Monitor air quality for CO build up if used in enclosedarea
•Avoid running electrical cords down walk ways
