Study these SAFETY RULES carefully before installing,
operating or servicing this equipment. Become familiar
with this Owner’s Manual and with the unit. The generator
can operate safely, efficiently and reliably only if it is prop-
erly installed, operated and maintained. Many accidents
are caused by failing to follow simple and fundamental
rules or precautions.
The manufacturer cannot anticipate every possible cir-
cumstance that might involve a hazard. The warnings in
this manual, and on tags and decals affixed to the unit
are, therefore, not all-inclusive. If using a procedure, work
method or operating technique that the manufacturer does
not specifically recommend, ensure that it is safe for others.
Also make sure the procedure, work method or operating
technique chosen does not render the generator unsafe.
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 install, 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 dur-
ing operation. Exercise care near running genera-
tors.
GENERAL HAZARDS
• For safety reasons, the manufacturer recommends that
this equipment be installed, serviced and repaired by an
Authorized Service Dealer or other competent, qualified
electrician or installation technician who is familiar with
applicable codes, standards and regulations. The operator
also must comply with all such codes, standards and regu-
lations.
• Installation, operation, servicing and repair of this (and
related) equipment must always comply with applicable
codes, standards, laws and regulations. Adhere strict-
ly to local, state and national electrical and building
codes. Comply with regulations the Occupational Safety
and Health Administration (OSHA) has established. Also,
ensure that the generator is installed, operated and ser-
viced in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions
and recommendations. Following installation, do nothing
that might render the unit unsafe or in noncompliance
with the aforementioned codes, standards, laws and regula-
tions.
• The engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide gas,
which can be DEADLY. This dangerous gas, if breathed in
sufficient concentrations, can cause unconsciousness or
even death. For that reason, adequate ventilation must be
provided.
• 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 ventilating air is
critical to prevent buildup of explosive gases and to ensure
correct generator operation. Do not alter the installation or
permit even partial blockage of ventilation provisions, as
this can seriously affect safe operation of the generator.
• Keep the area around the generator clean and uncluttered.
Remove any materials that could become hazardous.
• When working on this equipment, remain alert at all times.
Never work on the equipment when physically or mentally
fatigued.
• Inspect the generator regularly, and promptly repair or
replace all worn, damaged or defective parts using only fac-
tory-approved parts.
• Before performing any maintenance on the generator, dis-
connect 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 conditions from leaking
exhaust gases, fuel leakage, oil leakage, etc.
ELECTRICAL HAZARDS
• All generators covered by this manual produce dangerous
electrical voltages and can cause fatal electrical shock.
Utility power delivers extremely high and dangerous volt-
ages to the transfer switch as well as the standby generator.
Avoid contact with bare wires, terminals, connections, etc.,
on the generator as well as the transfer switch, if appli-
cable. Ensure all appropriate covers, guards and barriers
are in place before operating the generator. If work must be
done around an operating unit, stand on an insulated, dry
surface to reduce shock hazard.
