Risks relating to exhaust gases

 DANGER

RISK OF POISONING
DANGER OF DEATH (if appropriate)

The  carbon  monoxide  present  in  the  exhaust  gas  may  lead  to  death  by  inhalation  if  the 
concentration levels in the atmosphere are too high.
Always use the unit in a well ventilated area where the gases cannot accumulate.

For safety reasons and for correct operation of the unit, correct ventilation is essential (risk of poisoning, engine overheating and 
accidents involving, or damage to, the surrounding equipment and property). If it is necessary to operate it inside a building, the 
exhaust gases must be evacuated outside and adequate ventilation must be provided so that any people or animals present are not 
affected.

2.5

Risk of fire

 DANGER

RISK OF FIRE
DANGER OF DEATH

Never  operate  the  unit  in  areas  containing  flammable  products  (risk  of  sparks).  Keep  all 
flammable  or  explosive  materials  (e.g.  petrol,  oil,  cloth,  etc.)  out  of  the  way  when  unit  is 
running. Never cover the unit with any type of material while it is in operation or just after it has 
been turned off: always wait until the engine cools down (at least 30 minutes).

2.6

Risk of burns

IMPORTANT

Before any intervention, wait for the unit to cool down (at least 30 minutes).

When running and just after stopping, the oil, engine and the exhaust silencer are hot and may cause burns if contact is made.

2.7

Risk of electrocution

 DANGER

RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
DANGER OF DEATH

Units supply electrical current while operating; comply with the applicable legislation as well as 
the  installation  and  usage  recommendations  given  in  this  manual.  If  you  are  in  any  doubt 
regarding installation, please contact your nearest agent.
Do not connect the unit directly to other power sources (such as the mains for example); fit a 
source changeover panel.
Never touch stripped cables or disconnected connectors. Never handle a unit with wet hands 
or feet. Never expose the equipment to liquid splashes or rainfall, and do not place it on wet 
ground.

2.7.1 Temporary or semi-temporary installation (work site, show, fairground, etc.)

A - If the unit is not equipped with an integrated differential protection device at delivery (standard version with insulated neutral on 

the unit's earth terminal):
- Use a differential device calibrated to 30mA at the output of each of the unit's sockets (place each device at least 1 metre from 

the unit, protecting it from weather conditions).

- If one or more mobile or portable devices are used occasionally, the unit does not need to be earthed.

B  -  If  the  unit  is  equipped  with  an  integrated  differential  protection  device  at  delivery  (standard  version  with  alternating  neutral 

connected to the unit's earth terminal - for use with TT or TN systems):
- Connect the unit to the earth: attach a 10 mm2 copper wire to the unit's earth terminal (A1) and to a galvanised steel earthing 

rod set 1 metre into the ground.

2.7.2 Fixed installation or mains failure

When  supplying  a  fixed  installation  (e.g.  as  backup  for  mains  outages),  the  unit  must  be  connected  by  a  qualified  electrician  in 
accordance  with  the  regulations  applicable  at  the  installation  site.  The  units  are  not  designed  to  be  connected  directly  to  an 
installation (risk of electrocution or damage to equipment).
A - If the unit is not equipped with an integrated differential protection device at delivery (standard version with insulated neutral on 

the unit's earth terminal): 

- Use a source inverter.
- The unit does not need to be earthed.

B  -  If  the  unit  is  equipped  with  an  integrated  differential  protection  device  at  delivery  (standard  version  with  alternating  neutral 

connected to the unit's earth terminal - for use with TT or TN systems):

- Use a source inverter.
- Connect  the  unit  to  the  earth:  attach  a  10 mm2  copper  wire  to  the  unit's  earth  terminal  (A1)  and  to  a  galvanised  steel 

earthing rod set 1 metre into the ground.

2.7.3 Mobile application

The units are intended to operate while stationary. They may not be installed on a vehicle or other mobile equipment unless a study 
has been carried out analysing the unit's various installation and usage specifications. It is prohibited to use the unit whilst it is in 
motion. If earthing is not possible, connect the unit's earth terminal (A1) to the vehicle earth.
