Introduction

The sound shield quiets operation of generator sets

used in marine applications. When installing the sound

shield, follow the installation procedure and observe the

safety precautions listed below.

Read the entire installation procedure before beginning

installation. Perform the steps in the order shown.

Take into consideration the minimum clearance for

vibration and cooling during operation. For sound

shielded units, allow 305 mm (12 inches) minimum

clearance for the left-rear door and front door (intake

and discharge openings).

Safety Precautions

Accidental starting.

Can cause severe injury or death.

Disconnect the battery cables before

working on the generator set.

Remove the negative (--) lead first

when disconnecting the battery.

Reconnect the negative (--) lead last

when reconnecting the battery.

WARNING

Disabling the generator set. Accidental starting can

cause severe injury or death.

Before working on the

generator set or equipment connected to the set, disable the

generator set as follows: (1) Move the generator set master

switch to the OFF position. (2) Disconnect the power to the

battery charger. (3) Remove the battery cables, negative (--)

lead first.

Reconnect the negative (--) lead last when

reconnecting the battery. Follow these precautions to prevent

starting of the generator set by an automatic transfer switch,

remote start/stop switch, or engine start command from a

remote computer.

Risk of fire.

Can cause severe injury or death.

Do not smoke or permit flames or

sparks near fuels or the fuel system.

WARNING

Servicing the fuel system. A flash fire can cause severe

injury or death.

Do not smoke or permit flames or sparks near

the carburetor, fuel line, fuel filter, fuel pump, or other potential

sources of spilled fuels or fuel vapors. Catch fuels in an

approved container when removing the fuel line or carburetor.

Carbon monoxide.

Can

cause

severe

nausea,

fainting, or death.

The exhaust system must be

leakproof and routinely inspected.

WARNING

Operating the generator set. Carbon monoxide can cause

severe nausea, fainting, or death.

Be especially careful if

operating the generator set when moored or anchored under

calm conditions because gases may accumulate. If operating

the generator set dockside, moor the craft so that the exhaust

discharges on the lee side (the side sheltered from the wind).

Always be aware of others, making sure your exhaust is

directed away from other boats and buildings.
