NOTICE TO INSTALLER
These Installation Instructions have been published
by the manufacturer to aid in the installation of the
products described in this manual. The manufac-
turer assumes that installation personnel are familiar
with the procedures for installing such products, or
similar products manufactured. The manufacturer
also assumes that personnel have been trained in
the recommended installation procedures for these
products and that such training includes (a) use of
common hand tools, (b) use of special tools, and (c)
use of any tools and/or equipment from other sup-
pliers.
The manufacturer cannot possibly know of and
advise the recreational vehicle trade of all conceiv-
able methods, procedures or techniques by which to
perform an installation. Nor can we anticipate every
possible hazard that might result from each installa-
tion method, procedure or technique. The manufac-
turer has not undertaken any such wide evaluation.
Therefore, people who use a method, procedure or
technique that the manufacturer does not specifically
recommend must first completely satisfy themselves
that their safety, the safety of the vehicle's occupants
and the product's safety is not endangered by the
method, procedure or technique selected.
Information, illustrations, specifications, etc., con-
tained in these
Installation Instructions are based on
the latest information available at the time of publica-
tion. Every effort has been expended to be sure that
such data is both accurate and current. However, the
manufacturer reserves the right to change, alter or
otherwise improve this product at any time without
prior notice.
DANGER

Despite the safe design of this generator,
operating this equipment imprudently, neglecting
its maintenance or being careless can cause
possible injury or death. Permit only responsible
and capable persons to operate or maintain this
equipment.

Potentially lethal voltages are generated by
these machines. Ensure all steps are taken to
render the machine safe before attempting to
work on the generator.

Parts of the generator are rotating and/or hot
during operation. Exercise care near running
generators.

GENERAL HAZARDS

For safety reasons, the manufacturer recommends •
that the installation, initial start-up and main-
tenance of this equipment is carried out by an
Authorized Service Dealer.
The engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monox- •
ide, which can be DEADLY. This dangerous gas, if
breathed in sufficient concentrations, can cause
unconsciousness or even death. This exhaust
system must be installed properly, in strict com-
pliance with applicable codes and standards.
Following installation, do nothing that might ren-
der the system unsafe or in noncompliance with
such codes and standards. The generator com-
partment must be completely vapor sealed from
the vehicle interior. There must be no possibility of
exhaust fumes entering the vehicle interior. Never
operate this equipment with a leaking or defective
exhaust system.
Keep hands, feet, clothing, etc., away from drive •
belts, fans, and other moving or hot parts. Never
remove any drive belt or fan guard while the unit
is operating.
Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling and ven- •
tilating air is critical to correct generator opera-
tion and is required to expel toxic fumes and fuel
vapors from the generator compartment. Without
sufficient cooling airflow, the engine/generator
quickly overheats, which causes serious damage
to the generator. Do not alter the installation or
permit even partial blockage of ventilation provi-
sions, as this can seriously affect safe operation of
the generator.
When working on this equipment, remain alert •
at all times. Never work on the equipment when
physically or mentally fatigued.
Before performing any maintenance on the gen- •
erator, disconnect its battery cables to prevent
accidental start up. Disconnect the cable from the
battery post indicated by a NEGATIVE, NEG or (–)
first. Reconnect that cable last.
Never use the generator or any of its parts as a •
step. Stepping on the unit can stress and break
parts, and may result in dangerous operating con-
ditions from leaking exhaust gases, fuel leakage,
oil leakage, etc.
Never insert any tool or other object through open- •
ings in the generator interior, even if the unit is not
running. Serious injury or damage to the equip-
ment may occur.
Safety Rules
Recreational Vehicle Generator

DANGER: For fire safety, installation of a generator into a recreational vehicle must comply
strictly with article 551, NFPA 70; ANSI C1-1975; AND, ANSI A119.2-1975/NFPA 501C “Standard
for Recreational Vehicles” (Part 3, “Installation of Electrical Systems”). In addition, installation
must comply with the manufacturer’s instructions and recommendations.
