SAFETY INFORMATION

 

„

If the battery liquid (dilute sulfuric acid) comes into 

contact with 

clothing or skin

, rinse skin or clothing 

immediately with plenty of water.

 

„

If the battery liquid (dilute sulfuric acid) comes into 

contact with 

eyes

, rinse eyes immediately with plenty 

of water and contact the nearest doctor or hospital to 

seek medical attention.

  CAUTION

 

„

ALWAYS 

disconnect the 

NEGATIVE battery terminal 

before performing service on the generator.

 

„

ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY/DECOMMISSIONING

  NOTICE

Decommissioning is a controlled process used to safely 

retire a piece of equipment that is no longer serviceable.  

If the equipment poses an unacceptable and unrepairable 

safety risk due to wear or damage or is no longer cost 

effective to maintain (beyond life-cycle reliability) and is to 

be decommissioned (demolition and dismantlement),be 

sure to follow rules below.

 

„

DO NOT

 pour waste or oil directly onto the ground, down 

a drain or into any water source.

 

„

Contact your country's Department of 

Public Works or recycling agency in your 

area and arrange for proper disposal of 

any electrical components, waste or oil 

associated with this equipment.

 

„

When the life cycle of this equipment is over, remove 

battery and bring to appropriate facility for lead 

reclamation. Use safety precautions when handling 

batteries that contain sulfuric acid.

 

„

When the life cycle of this equipment is over, it is 

recommended that the frame and all other metal parts 

be sent to a recycling center.
Metal recycling involves the collection of metal from 

discarded products and its transformation into raw 

materials to use in manufacturing a new product.
Recyclers and manufacturers alike promote the process 

of recycling metal. Using a metal recycling center 

promotes energy cost savings.

EMISSIONS INFORMATION

  NOTICE

The diesel engine used in this equipment has been 

designed to reduce harmful levels of carbon monoxide 

(CO), hydrocarbons (HC) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) 

contained in diesel exhaust emissions.
This engine has been certifi ed to meet  US EPA Evaporative 

emissions requirements in the installed confi guration.
Attempting to modify or make adjustments to the engine 

emission system by unauthorized personnel without proper 

training could damage the equipment or create an unsafe 

condition.
Additionally, modifying the fuel system may adversely affect 

evaporative emissions, resulting in fi nes or other penalties.

Emission Control Label

The emission control label is an integral part of the emission 

system and is strictly controlled by regulations.
The label must remain with the engine for its entire life.
If a replacement emission label is needed, please contact 

your authorized engine distributor.
