This engine generator set has been designed and manufactured to allow safe, reliable performance. Poor maintenance, improper or careless use can result in potential deadly hazards; from electrical shock, exhaust gas asphyxiation, or fire. Please read all safety instructions carefully before installation or use. Keep these instructions handy for future reference. Take special note and follow all warnings on the unit labels and in the manuals.

ANSI SAFETY DEFINITIONS

______________________________________________________ DANGER:

DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. This signal word is to be limited to the most extreme situations.

______________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________ WARNING:

WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

______________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________ CAUTION:

CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.

______________________________________________________ NOTE:

CAUTION is also used on the unit labels and in this manual to indicate a situation that could result in serious damage or destruction of the equipment and possible personal injury.

______________________________________________________

1.ELECTRIC SHOCK- The output voltage present in this equipment can cause a fatal electric shock. This equipment must be operated by a responsible person.

a. Do not allow anyone to operate the generator without

proper instruction.

b. Guard against electric shock.

c. Avoid contact with live terminals or receptacles.

d. Use extreme care if operating this unit in rain or snow.

e. Use only three-prong grounded plugs and extension

cords.

f. Be sure the unit is properly grounded to an external

ground rod driven into the earth.

2.FIRE HAZARD- Gasoline and other fuels always present a hazard of possible explosion and/or fire.

3.DEADLY EXHAUST GAS - Exhaust fumes from any gasoline engine contain carbon monoxide, an invisible, odorless and deadly gas that must be mixed with fresh air.

a. Operate only in well ventilated areas. b. Never operate indoors. c. Never operate the unit in such a way as to allow exhaust gases to seep back into closed rooms (i.e. through windows, walls or floors).

4.NOISE HAZARD - Excessive noise is not only tiring, but continual exposure can lead to loss of hearing.

a. Use hearing protection equipment when working around this equipment for long periods of time. b. Keep your neighbors in mind when permanently installing this equipment.

5.CLEANLINESS- Keep the generator and surrounding area clean.

a. Remove all grease, ice, snow or materials that create slippery conditions around the unit. b. Remove any rags or other material that could create potential fire hazards. c. Carefully wipe up any gas or oil spills before starting the unit. d. Never allow leaves or other flammable material to build up around the engine exhaust area.

6.SERVICING EQUIPMENT- All service, including the installation or replacement of service parts, should be performed only by a qualified technician.

a. Use only factory approved repair parts. b. Do not work on this equipment when fatigued. c. Never remove the protective guards, cover, or receptacle panels while the engine is running. d. Use extreme caution when working on electrical components. High output voltages from this equipment can cause serious injury or death. e. Always avoid hot mufflers, exhaust manifolds, and engine parts. They all can cause severe burns instantly. f. Installing a home-standby generator is not a “do-ityourself” project. Consult a qualified, licensed electrician or contractor. The installation must comply with all national, state, and local codes.

a. Do not refuel when the engine is running or hot. Allow

the engine to cool at least two minutes before refueling.

b. Keep fuel containers out of reach of children.

c. Do not smoke or use open flame near the generator set

or fuel tank.

d. Keep a fire extinguisher nearby and know its proper

use. Fire extinguishers rated ABC by NFPA are

appropriate.

e. Store fuel only in an approved container, and only in a

well-ventilated area.
