TP-6803 6/15 7 Safety Precautions and Instructions
Fuel System
Explosive fuel vapors.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Use extreme care when handling,
storing, and using fuels.
WARNING
The fuel system. Explosive fuel
vapors can cause severe injury or
death. Vaporized fuels are highly
explosive. Use extreme care when
handling and storing fuels. Store fuels
in a well-ventilated area away from
spark-producing equipment and out of
the reach of children. Never add fuel to
the tank while the engine is running
because spilled fuel may ignite on
contact with hot parts or from sparks.
Do not smoke or permit flames or
sparks to occur near sources of spilled
fuel or fuel vapors. Keep the fuel lines
and connections tight and in good
condition. Do not replace flexible fuel
lines with rigid lines. Use flexible
sections to avoid fuel line breakage
caused by vibration. Do not operate the
generator set in the presence of fuel
leaks, fuel accumulation, or sparks.
Repair fuel systems before resuming
generator set operation.
Gas fuel leaks. Explosive fuel
vapors can cause severe injury or
death. Fuel leakage can cause an
explosion. Check the LPG vapor or
natural gas fuel system for leakage by
using a soap and water solution with
the fuel system test pressurized to
6--8 ounces per square inch
(10--14 inches water column). Do not
use a soap solution containing either
ammonia or chlorine because both
prevent bubble formation. A successful
test depends on the ability of the
solution to bubble.
Explosive fuel vapors can cause
severe injury or death. Take
additional precautions when using the
following fuels:
Propane (LPG) —Adequate ventilation
is mandatory. Because propane is
heavier than air, install propane gas
detectors low in a room. Inspect the
detectors per the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Natural Gas —Adequate ventilation is
mandatory. Because natural gas rises,
install natural gas detectors high in a
room. Inspect the detectors per the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Hazardous Noise
Hazardous noise.
Can cause hearing loss.
Never operate the generator set
without a muffler or with a faulty
exhaust system.
CAUTION
Engine noise. Hazardous noise can
cause hearing loss. Generator sets
not equipped with sound enclosures
can produce noise levels greater than
105 dBA. Prolonged exposure to noise
levels greater than 85 dBA can cause
permanent hearing loss. Wear hearing
protection when near an operating
generator set.
Hazardous Voltage/
Moving Parts
Hazardous voltage.
Will cause severe injury or death.
This equipment must be installed and
serviced by qualified electrical
personnel.
DANGER
Hazardous voltage.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Operate the generator set only when
all guards and electrical enclosures
are in place.
Moving parts.
WARNING
Hazardous voltage.
Backfeed to the utility system can
cause property damage, severe
injury, or death.
If the generator set is used for
standby power, install an automatic
transfer switch to prevent inadvertent
interconnection of standby and
normal sources of supply.
WARNING
Welding the generator set.
Can cause severe electrical
equipment damage.
Never weld components of the
generator set without first
disconnecting the battery, controller
wiring harness, and engine electronic
control module (ECM).
CAUTION
Grounding electrical equipment.
Hazardous voltage can cause
severe injury or death. Electrocution
is possible whenever electricity is
present. Ensure you comply with all
applicable codes and standards.
Electrically ground the generator set,
transfer switch, and related equipment
and electrical circuits. Turn off the main
circuit breakers of all power sources
before servicing the equipment. Never
contact electrical leads or appliances
when standing in water or on wet
ground because these conditions
increase the risk of electrocution.
Welding on the generator set. Can
cause severe electrical equipment
damage. Before welding on the
generator set perform the following
steps: (1) Remove the battery cables,
negative (--) lead first. (2) Disconnect
all engine electronic control module
(ECM) connectors. (3) Disconnect all
generator set controller and voltage
regulator circuit board connectors.
(4) Disconnect the engine battery-
charging alternator connections.
(5) Attach the weld ground connection
close to the weld location.
