Operation Safety
Do not refuel while the engine is still hot. Allow the
engine to cool down for several minutes before
refueling.
Do not spill fuel inside the engine compartment. If
fuel has leaked, wipe it up and have the leak
repaired before the next use.
Toxic Gas and Burn Hazard
The exhaust manifold, tail pipe
and other parts of the engine get
hot. Do not touch hot parts.
Hot exhaust can contain toxic
gases like carbon monoxide
that, if inhaled, will result in
death or serious injury. Do not
breath exhaust gas.
Use protective gloves when
handling hot parts.
Never remove the radiator cap
while the engine is running or
while the engine is hot.
Do not use indoors unless the
area is properly ventilated or an
exhaust scrubber is used.
Check the exhaust system
regularly for leaks and ensure
that the exhaust manifolds are
secure and not warped. Make
sure that the machine is well
ventilated.
Welding Hazard
Do not weld on any structural
member. Unauthorized welding
or repair procedure can result in
structural failure or personal
injury and will void the warranty.
Bodily Injury and Component
Damage Hazards
Loose jackets, shirts, sleeves, jewelry and neck
ties should not be worn while working on or
operating the generator.
Never remove the fan guards while the unit is
operating. Turn the generator off before removing
the fan guards or other protective devices from
the generator to gain temporary access for
maintenance. Replace the fan guards and other
protective devices immediately after servicing.
Keep your hands away from moving parts,
particularly clear of the radiator fan and alternator
belts when the engine is running.
Do not shut the unit down with the main generator
circuit breaker in the on position. Shutting the unit
down with the breaker in the on position can cause
damage to the generator and/or connected
apparatus.
Do not change the position of the voltage selector
switch while the generator is running. This will
result in immediate damage to the switch, the
generator or the conected equipment. It may result
in serious injury to the operator.
Improper Use Hazard
When leaving the generator set unattended,
secure the machine from unauthorized use.
Unauthorized personnel may attempt to operate
the machine without proper instructions, creating
an unsafe condition.
