6.SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1.Use extreme caution near fuel. A constant danger of explosion or fire exists.

Do not fill the fuel tank while the engine is running. Do not smoke or use open flame near the fuel tank. Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. If spilt, wipe it and let dry before starting the engine.

2.Do not place inflammable materials near the generator.

Be careful not to put fuel, matches, gunpowder, oily cloth, straw, and any other inflammables near the generator.

3.Do not operate the generator in a room, cave or tunnel. Always operate in a well-ventilated area.

Otherwise the engine may overheat and also, the poisonous carbon monoxide contained in the ex- haust gases will endanger human lives. Keep the generator at least 1 m (4 feet) away from structures or facilities during use.

4.Operate the generator on a level surface.

If the generator is tilted or moved during use, there is a danger of fuel spillage and a chance that the generator may tip over.

5.Do not operate with wet hands or in the rain.

Severe electric shock may occur. If the generator is wet by rain or snow, wipe it and thoroughly dry it before starting. Don’ t pour water over the generator directly nor wash it with water. If the generator is wet with water, the insulations will be adversely affected and may cause current leakage and electric shock.

6.Do not connect the generator to the commercial power lines.

This may cause a short-circuit or damage to the generator. Use a transfer switch (Optional parts) for connecting with indoor wiring.

NOTE : The parts numbers of the transfer switches and of the plastic box to store them are as shown in Table 6-1.

Part No.	Part Name	Q'ty	Phase	Allowable Current

365-45604-08	Transfer Switch	1	1	15 A

367-45605-08	Transfer Switch	1	1	30 A

340-45606-08	Transfer Switch	1	1	60 A

367-43008-08	Plastic Box	1	1	30 A

348-43009-08	Plastic Box	1	1	60 A

	Table. 6-1

7. Be sure to check and remedy the cause of circuit breaker tripping before resetting it on.

CAUTION : If the circuit breaker tripped off as a result of using an electrical appliance, the cause can be an overload or a short-circuit. In such a case, stop operation immediately and carefully check the electrical appliance and AC plugs for faulty wiring.
