MOVING PARTS CAN CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH
• Before starting work on the generator set, disconnect negative (-) cable at the battery. This
will prevent accidental arcing or starting.
• Keep your hands away from moving parts.
• Make sure that fasteners on the generator set are secure. Tighten supports and clamps, keep
guards in position over fans, etc.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry while working on generator sets, because they can
become caught in moving parts. Jewelry can short out electrical contacts and cause shock or
burning.
• If adjustment must be made while the unit is running, use extreme caution around hot
manifolds, moving parts, etc.
General Safety Precautions
• Wear safety glasses and protective clothing when servicing batteries. DO NOT SMOKE
while servicing batteries. Lead-acid batteries emit a highly explosive hydrogen gas that can be
ignited by electrical arcing or by smoking.
• Have a fire extinguisher rated ABC near by. Maintain the extinguisher properly and become
familiar with its use.
• Benzene and lead, found in some gasoline, have been identified by some state and federal
agencies as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity. When checking, draining or adding
gasoline, take care not to ingest, breathe the fumes, or contact gasoline.
• Used engine oils have been identified by some state or federal agencies as causing cancer or
reproductive toxicity. When checking or changing engine oil, take care not to ingest, breathe
the fumes, or contact used oil.
• Remove all necessary grease and oil from the unit. Accumulated grease and oil can cause
overheating and engine damage, which presents a potential fire hazard.
• Do not store anything in the generator set compartment such as oil or gas cans, oily rags,
chains, wooden blocks, portable propane cylinders, etc. A fire could result or the generator set
operation (cooling, noise and vibration) may be adversely affected. Keep the compartment
floor clean and dry.
• Do not work on this equipment when mentally or physically fatigued, or after consuming any
alcohol or drug that makes the operation of equipment unsafe.
Fuel Recommendations
y
WARNING: Gasoline and LP Gas are highly flammable fuels and can cause severe
personal injury or death. Do not smoke if you smell gas or gasoline or are near fuel
tanks or fuel-burning equipment or are in an area sharing ventilation with such
equipment. Keep flames, sparks, pilot lights, electrical arcs and arc-producing
equipment and all other sources of ignition well away. Keep a type ABC fire
extinguisher in the vehicle.
GASOLINE MODELS
Use clean, fresh unleaded gasoline having a minimum octane rating (anti-knock index) of 87.
During some times of the year only mandated “oxygentated” gasolines may be available. These
are acceptable for use, but not preferable. Leaded gasoline may be used but will result in the extra
maintenance required for removing combustion chamber and spark plug deposits. Do not use
