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 properly installed, operated
and maintained.
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. Any personal
injury or property damage resulting from the use of a
procedure, work method or operating technique not
specifically recommended by the manufacturer, shall
be the sole responsibility of the operator. Operators
who deviate from manufacturer recommended safety
procedures and operating techniques, or fail to take
the necessary precautions, do so at their own risk.
DANGER
Despite the safe design of this generator, oper-
ating this equipment imprudently, neglecting its
maintenance or being careless can cause pos-
sible 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 mainte-
nance of this equipment is carried out by a deal-
er.
• 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
remove any drive belt or fan guard while the unit
is operating.
• Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling and venti-
lating air is critical to correct generator 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. The
generator MUST be installed outdoors.
• 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 contact the
nearest dealer for parts needing repair or replace-
ment.
• Before performing any maintenance on the gen-
erator, disconnect 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 con-
ditions 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 voltages to the transfer switch
as does the standby generator when it is in opera-
tion. Avoid contact with bare wires, terminals,
connections, etc., while the unit is running. Ensure
all appropriate covers, guards and barriers are in
place before operating the generator. If work must
