Risk of fire
Hazard
What could happen
How to prevent it
Attempting to fill the fuel
tank while the engine is
running.
Fuel and fuel vapours can become ignited
by coming in contact with hot components
such as the muffler, engine exhaust gases,
or from an electrical spark.
Turn engine off and allow it to cool before
adding fuel to the tank. Equip area of
operation with a fire extinguisher certified
to handle gasoline or fuel fires.
Sparks, fire, hot objects
Cigarettes, sparks, fires, or other hot
objects can cause fuel or fuel vapours
to ignite.
Add fuel to tank in well ventilated area.
Make sure there are no sources of ignition
near the generator.
Improper storage of fuel
Improperly stored fuel could lead to
accidental ignition. Fuel improperly secured
could get into the hands of children or other
unqualified persons.
Store fuel in an approved container
designed to hold fuel. Store container in
secure location to prevent use by others.
Tampering with factory set
engine speed settings.
Engine speed has been factory set to
provide safe operation. Tampering with
the engine speed adjustment could result
in overheating of attachments and could
cause a fire.
Never attempt to “speed-up” the engine to
obtain more performance. Both the output
voltage and frequency will be thrown out
of standard by this practice, endangering
attachments and the user.
Inadequate ventilation
for generator
Materials placed against or near the
generator or operating the generator in
areas where the temperature exceeds
40°C. ambient (such as storage rooms
or garages) can interfere with its proper
ventilation features causing overheating
and possible ignition of the materials or
buildings.
Operate generator in a clean, dry,
well ventilated area.
DO NOT OPERATE UNIT INDOORS
OR IN ANY CONFINED AREA.
Overfilling the fuel tank
– fuel spillage.
Spilled fuel and its vapours can become
ignited from hot surfaces or sparks.
Use care in filling the tank to avoid spilling
fuel. Make sure fuel cap is secured tightly
and check engine for fuel leaks before
starting engine. Move generator away
from refuelling area or any spillage before
starting engine. Allow for fuel expansion.
Never refuel with the engine running.
