2.7.4 BATTERY
COMPARTMENT
Install the generator battery in its own, vented compartment. Place
the battery compartment away from any source of heat, sparks,
or flame.
Provide ventilation openings in the battery compartment. The
minimum size of openings should be 2 square inches at the top
of the compartment. Mount the battery on a strong, rigid support-
ing structure, where leaks and spills of battery fluid will not cause
damage.
DO NOT dispose of the battery in a fire. The
battery is capable of exploding. Storage bat-
teries give off explosive hydrogen gas. This
gas can form an explosive mixture around
the battery for several hours after charging.
The slightest spark can ignite the gas and
cause an explosion. Such an explosion can
shatter the battery and cause blindness or
other injury. Any area that houses a storage
battery must be properly ventilated. DO NOT
allow smoking, open flame, sparks, or any
spark-producing tool or equipment near the
battery. Discharge static electricity from body
before touching the battery by first touching
a grounded metal surface.
A battery presents a risk of electrical shock
and high short-circuit current. The following
precautions are to be observed when work-
ing on batteries:
• Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects;
• Use tools with insulated handles;
• Wear rubber gloves and boots;
• Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of the
battery;
• Disconnect any charging source prior to connect-
ing or disconnecting battery terminals; and
• Do not use any jumper cables or booster battery
to crank and start the generator engine. If any
battery has discharged, remove it for recharging.
DO NOT open or mutilate the battery.
Released electrolyte is known to be harmful
to the skin and eyes, and to be toxic.
The electrolyte is a dilute sulfuric acid that is
harmful to the skin and eyes. It is electrically
conductive and corrosive. The following
procedures are to be observed:
• Wear full eye protection and protective clothing;
• Where electrolyte contacts the skin, wash it off
immediately with water.
• If the electrolyte contacts the eyes, immediately
flush eyes thoroughly with water, and seek
medical attention.
• Spilled electrolyte is to be washed down with
an acid-neutralizing agent. A common practice
is to use a solution of 1 pound (500 grams)
bicarbonate of soda to 1 gallon (4 liters) of
water. The bicarbonate of soda solution is to
be added until the evidence of reaction (foam-
ing) has ceased. The resulting liquid is to be
flushed with water and the area dried.
2.8 OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
A plug-in connector (Figure 2.20) is provided on the generator set,
below the control panel. Use this to connect an optional remote-
mounted start/stop panel to the generator. Installation of such a
panel will permit starting and stopping the generator engine from
any convenient location inside the vehicle.

2.8.1 REMOTE START/STOP CONNECTIONS
The following steps are necessary to connect the remote start/
stop option:
1. If the six-wire remote connector is visible below the control
panel, as shown in Figure 2.20, skip to step 5. Otherwise,
proceed with step 2.
2. Remove the electrical access panel located just below the
knock-out labeled “REMOTE.” The remote connector will be
located inside the electrical enclosure, along the right side.
3. Remove the “REMOTE” knock-out, taking care not to damage
the wiring behind it.
4. Feed the remote connector through the hole, and fit the sup-
plied grommet into position.
5. Wire the remote harness (Part # 0D2021C, supplied as an
accessory with the generator) to the vehicle’s remote start
panel. Refer to Figure 2.20 for a wiring legend.
6. Plug the remote harness into the mating remote connector on
the generator.
