Study these SAFETY RULES carefully before install-
ing, operating or servicing this equipment. Become
familiar with this Owner’s Manual and with the unit.
The generator(s) can operate safely, efficiently and
reliably only if it is properly installed, operated and
maintained. Many accidents are caused by failing to
follow simple and fundamental rules or precautions.
The manufacturer cannot anticipate every possible
circumstance that might involve a hazard. The warn-
ings 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
the manufacturer does not specifically recommend,
ensure that it is safe for others. Also make sure the
procedure, work method or operating technique uti-
lized does not render the generator(s) unsafe.
DANGER
Despite the safe design of the generator(s),
operating this equipment imprudently, neglect-
ing its maintenance or being careless can cause
possible injury or death. Permit only responsible
and capable persons to 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(s).
Parts of the generator(s) are rotating and/or hot
during operation. Exercise care near running
generators.
GENERAL HAZARDS
For safety reasons, the manufacturer requires that
the installation, initial start-up and maintenance
of this equipment is carried out by an Authorized
Dealer.
The engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monox-
ide, which can be DEADLY. This dangerous gas, if
breathed in sufficient concentrations, can cause
unconsciousness or even death. This exhaust
system must be installed properly, in strict com-
pliance with applicable codes and standards.
Following installation, do nothing that might ren-
der the system unsafe or in noncompliance with
such codes and standards.
Keep hands, feet, clothing, etc., away from drive
belts, fans, and other moving or hot parts. Never
operate the unit with any drive belt or fan guard
removed.
Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling and ventilat-
ing air is critical to correct generator(s) operation.
Do not alter the installation or permit even partial
blockage of ventilation provisions, as this can seri-
ously affect safe operation of the generator(s).
When working on this equipment, remain alert
at all times. Never work on the equipment when
physically or mentally fatigued.
Inspect the generator(s) regularly, and repair or
replace all damaged or defective parts immedi-
ately. Always use factory-authorized parts.
Turn off the AC power to the battery charger before
disconnecting the battery to minimize the chance
of equipment damage.
Before performing any maintenance on the
generator(s), disconnect its battery cables to pre-
vent accidental start-up. Remove control panel
fuse, then disconnect the cable from the battery
post indicated by a NEGATIVE, NEG or (–) first.
Reconnect that cable last, then reinstall control
panel fuse.
Never use the generator(s) or any of its parts as a
step. Stepping on the unit can stress and break
parts, and may result in dangerous operating con-
ditions from leaking exhaust gases, fuel leakage,
oil leakage, etc.
