Stephill generators must not be used in a flammable environment.
Operation of the machine in a saline environment will require additional corrosion protection.
All Stephill generators comply with current EEC directives including:
2016/1628/EU Non-Road Mobile Machinery (NRMM).
2014/30/EU The Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive.
2006/42/EC The Machinery Directive.
2000/14/EC Noise emission in the environment by equipment for use outdoors.
2011/65/EU The Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive.
EC 1907/2006 REACH.

Saline Environment
Operating Environment
A temperature range between -15
⁰C and +45⁰C are the normal limits of operation. Operating outside the
range will require additional modifications.
The standard reference condition for relative humidity is 30%. Above this value the rated power must be
reduced.
The standard reference condition for total barometric pressure is 1 bar. This corresponds to an altitude of
approximately 100m. Above 100m the rated power must be reduced.

Safety Considerations
Lubricating Oil
New oil presents no hazard following short term exposure. Lubricants in particular used engine oil, are
potentially carcinogenic. Direct contact should always be avoided by wearing suitable rubber gloves when
handling them. Used oil should not be allowed to contact the skin. If this does occur, wash off quickly with a
proprietary hand cleanser.
Fuels and lubricants are a potential source of fire. Be careful not to spill fuel, clean up any spillages.
Inhalation or swallowing of diesel should be avoided. If in doubt seek medical advice. All other forms of
contact are an irritant and therefore should also be avoided. If skin contact is made wash with soap and
water.
The generator should always be operated on level ground and be able to bear its weight. Ensure the
generator canopy is not obstructed to allow cool air to enter the set and hot expelled air to escape.
