January 4, 2007 DEWALT is recalling its DG2900 portable generators because of an electric shock hazard. A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) installed on the generator could fail to operate properly, the company said.

No incidents or injuries have been reported.

The recall involves DEWALT DG2900 2900 watt gasoline-powered generators with date codes 200150 through 200635. The generators are black and yellow. “DEWALT” and “DG2900” are printed on the generator. The date code is stamped on the right side of the unit on the black plastic covering the rear of the control panel. Units with an “R” stamped on the name plate are not affected by this recall.

The units were sold by major home center and hardware stores nationwide from December 2001 through November 2006 for between $900 and $1,000.

The article recommends that you contact the Dewalt company for free repair, not the hardware stores.

Here’s the contact info:

Customer Contact: For more information, contact DEWALT toll-free at (888) 742–9108 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm.s Web site at www.DEWALT.com.
