TP-5936 7/04 II Safety Precautions and Instructions
Battery short circuits. Explosion
can cause severe injury or death.
Short circuits can cause bodily injury
and/or
equipment damage.
Disconnect the battery before
generator set installation or
maintenance. Remove all jewelry
before servicing the equipment. Use
tools with insulated handles. Remove
the negative (--) lead first when
disconnecting the battery. Reconnect
the negative (--) lead last when
reconnecting
the battery. Never
connect the negative (--) battery cable
to the positive (+) connection terminal
of the starter solenoid. Do not test the
battery
condition by shorting the
terminals together.
Engine Backfire/Flash
Fire
Fire.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Do not smoke or permit flames or
sparks near fuels or the fuel system.
WARNING
Servicing the air cleaner. A sudden
backfire can cause severe injury or
death.
Do not operate the generator
set with the air cleaner/silencer
removed.
Combustible materials. A sudden
flash fire can cause severe injury or
death.
Do not smoke or permit flames
or sparks near the fuel system. Keep
the compartment and the generator set
clean and free of debris to minimize the
risk of fire. Wipe up spilled fuels and
engine oil.
Combustible materials. A fire can
cause
severe injury or death.
Generator set engine fuels and fuel
vapors are flammable and explosive.
Handle these materials carefully to
minimize the risk of fire or explosion.
Equip the compartment or nearby area
with a fully charged fire extinguisher.
Select a fire extinguisher rated ABC or
BC
for electrical fires or as
recommended by the local fire code or
an authorized agency.
Train all
personnel on fire extinguisher
operation and fire prevention
procedures.
Exhaust System
Carbon monoxide.
Can
cause severe nausea,
fainting, or death.
The exhaust system must be
leakproof and routinely inspected.
WARNING
Carbon monoxide symptoms.
Carbon monoxide can cause severe
nausea, fainting, or death.
Carbon
monoxide is a poisonous gas present in
exhaust gases.
Carbon monoxide
poisoning symptoms include but are
not limited to the following:
D
Light-headedness, dizziness
D
Physical fatigue, weakness in
joints and muscles
D
Sleepiness, mental fatigue,
inability to concentrate
or speak clearly, blurred vision
D
Stomachache, vomiting, nausea
If experiencing any of these symptoms
and carbon monoxide poisoning is
possible, seek fresh air immediately
and remain active. Do not sit, lie down,
or fall asleep.
Alert others to the
possibility of carbon monoxide
poisoning. Seek medical attention if
the condition of affected persons does
not improve within minutes of breathing
fresh air.
Copper tubing exhaust systems.
Carbon monoxide can cause severe
nausea, fainting, or death.
Do not
use copper tubing in diesel exhaust
systems.
Sulfur in diesel exhaust
causes rapid deterioration of copper
tubing exhaust systems, resulting in
exhaust/water leakage.
Inspecting the exhaust system.
Carbon monoxide can cause severe
nausea, fainting, or death.
For the
safety of the craft’s occupants, install a
carbon monoxide detector. Consult the
boat builder or dealer for approved
detector
location and installation.
Inspect the detector before each
generator set use. In addition to routine
exhaust system inspection, test the
carbon monoxide detector per the
manufacturer’s instructions and keep
the detector operational at all times.
Operating the generator set. Carbon
monoxide can cause severe nausea,
fainting, or death.
Carbon monoxide
is an odorless, colorless, tasteless,
nonirritating gas that can cause death if
inhaled for even a short time. Use the
following precautions when installing
and operating the generator set. Do not
install the exhaust outlet where exhaust
can be drawn in through portholes,
vents, or air conditioners.
If the
generator set exhaust discharge outlet
is near the waterline, water could enter
the exhaust discharge outlet and close
or restrict the flow of exhaust. Never
operate the generator set without a
functioning carbon monoxide detector.
Be especially careful if operating the
generator
set when moored or
anchored under calm conditions
because gases may accumulate. If
operating the generator set dockside,
moor the craft so that the exhaust
discharges on the lee side (the side
sheltered from the wind). Always be
aware of others, making sure your
exhaust is directed away from other
boats and buildings. Avoid overloading
the craft.
