These "Safety Alerts" alone cannot eliminate the hazards that they signal. Strict compliance with these spe-
cial Instructions plus "common sense" are major accident prevention measures.
NOTICE TO USERS OF THIS MANUAL
This SERVICE MANUAL has been written and published by Generac to aid our dealers' mechanics and com-
pany service personnel when servicing the products described herein.
It is assumed that these personnel are familiar with the servicing procedures for these products, or like or
similar products manufactured and marketed by Generac. That they have been trained in the recommended
servicing procedures for these products, including the use of common hand tools and any special Generac
tools or tools from other suppliers.
Generac could not possibly know of and advise the service trade of all conceivable procedures by which a
service might be performed and of the possible hazards and/or results of each method. We have not under-
taken any such wide evaluation. Therefore, anyone who uses a procedure or tool not recommended by
Generac must first satisfy himself that neither his nor the products safety will be endangered by the service
procedure selected.
All information, illustrations and specifications in this manual are based on the latest product information
available at the time of publication.
When working on these products, remember that the electrical system and engine ignition system are capa-
ble of violent and damaging short circuits or severe electrical shocks. If you intend to perform work where
electrical terminals could be grounded or touched, the battery cables should be disconnected at the battery.
Any time the intake or exhaust openings of the engine are exposed during service, they should be covered to
prevent accidental entry of foreign material. Entry of such materials will result in extensive damage when the
engine Is started.
During any maintenance procedure, replacement fasteners must have the same measurements and strength
as the fasteners that were removed. Metric bolts and nuts have numbers that indicate their strength.
Customary bolts use radial lines to indicate strength while most customary nuts do not have strength mark-
ings. Mismatched or incorrect fasteners can cause damage, malfunction and possible injury.
REPLACEMENT PARTS
Components on Generac recreational vehicle generators are designed and manufactured to comply with
Recreational Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) Rules and Regulations to minimize the risk of fire or explo-
sion. The use of replacement parts that are not in compliance with such Rules and Regulations could result
in a fire or explosion hazard. When servicing this equipment, It is extremely important that all components be
properly installed and tightened. If Improperly Installed and tightened, sparks could Ignite fuel vapors from
fuel system leaks.
