The ground terminal located on the back of the generator frame must always be used
to connect generator to a driven ground rod. Connect the ground terminal to the driven
ground rod with a No 8 AWG (American Wire Gauge) copper wire. The wire connects
to the terminal between the lock washer and nut. Tighten the nut securely to ensure
proper connection. Grounding the generator protects you from electric shock that
results from a build up of static electricity or undetected ground faults.
