Study these SAFETY RULES carefully before install-
ing, operating or servicing this equipment. Become
familiar with this manual and with the unit. The gen-
erator 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 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 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
during operation. Exercise care near running
generators.
GENERAL HAZARDS
For safety reasons, the manufacturer recommends •
that the installation, initial start-up and main-
tenance of this equipment is carried out by an
Authorized Service Dealer.
The generator engine releases DEADLY carbon •
monoxide gas through its exhaust system. This
dangerous gas, if breathed in sufficient concentra-
tions, can cause unconsciousness or even death.
Never operate the generator set with the vehicle
inside any garage or other enclosed area. DO NOT
OPERATE THE GENERATOR IF THE EXHAUST
SYSTEM IS LEAKING OR HAS BEEN DAMAGED.
SYMPTOMS OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING
ARE (a) inability to think coherently, (b) nausea,
(c) vomiting, (d) twitching muscles, (e) throbbing
temples, (f) dizziness, (g) headaches, (h) weak-
ness, and (i) sleepiness. IF EXPERIENCING ANY
OF THESE SYMPTOMS, MOVE INTO FRESH AIR
IMMEDIATELY. IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST, GET
MEDICAL HELP. Shut down the generator and
do not operate it until it has been inspected and
repaired.
Never sleep in the vehicle while the genset is run-•
ning unless the vehicle has a working carbon
monoxide detector. The exhaust system must be
installed in accordance with the genset installation
manual. Make sure there is ample fresh air when
operating the genset in a confined area.
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. The generator com-
partment must be completely vapor sealed from
the vehicle interior. There must be no possibility of
exhaust fumes entering the vehicle interior. Never
operate this equipment with a leaking or defective
exhaust system.
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 ven-•
tilating air is critical to correct generator opera-
tion and is required to expel toxic fumes and fuel
vapors from the generator compartment. Without
sufficient cooling airflow, the engine/generator
quickly overheats, which causes serious damage
to the generator. Do not alter the installation or
permit even partial blockage of ventilation provi-
sions, as this can seriously affect safe operation of
the generator.
