Safety gate

Operate fuel-burning equipment outdoors only, far from occupied structures, openings, and ignition hazards, with working carbon-monoxide monitoring for personnel.

Testing is for qualified personnel using correctly rated load equipment and the manufacturer’s required grounding, bonding, clearance, and protective-device instructions.

Never connect a generator directly to building wiring or bypass overload, temperature, battery, GFCI, or carbon-monoxide shutdown protection.

Stop a run for unstable voltage or frequency, overheating, fuel or electrolyte leakage, abnormal sound, damaged wiring, or any manufacturer fault indication.

Badge rule: this product receives no “FMG Tested” label or score benefit until a real unit, instruments, conditions, valid runs, raw records, and limitations are documented under the public protocol.

CPSC recall 26407 · Apr 16, 2026

Generac Power Systems Recalls Portable Generators Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Burn and Fire Hazards

Hazard: When first filling the recalled generator with gasoline, fuel can leak from the carburetor, posing a risk of serious injury or death from fire or burn hazard. Consumers with generators that have previously been filled with enough gasoline to move the gauge off "E," or have been used without any gasoline leakage, can continue to be used.
