Caution Statements
Caution: Avoid installing the generator set beside heat generating equipment, or directly below water or steam pipes or in the vicinity of corrosive substances or vapors, metal particles and dust. Heat can cause engine problems to develop and unwanted substances can cause rust or generator failure over time.
Caution: Do not apply high voltage to windings (do not start the generator) in a moisture−saturated condition. Moisture can cause insulation breakdown, making it necessary to repair the generator and consequent expense and loss of time.
Caution: Use only original equipment or authorized replacement parts. Using the correct parts will assure continued safe operation as designed.
Caution: Do not support the generator from the top of the frame or enclosure.
Caution: Do not tamper with or change the engine speed. Engine speed is factory set to produce the correct voltage and output frequency.
Caution: Never operate the engine without a muffler. The engine is designed to have the correct exhaust components installed and operating without these components can present a fire hazard, cause excessive exhaust gases and cause damage to engine. Inspect muffler periodically and replace if necessary.
Caution: The Programmable Output Contacts selection must agree with the external control wiring prior to energizing the controller. Failure to do so may cause severe equipment damage.
Caution: If a dead battery is suspected, remove the controller fuse, charge battery (or replace), and then attempting starting. Damage to engine control may result from jump starting.
Caution: This generator must have a battery installed for operation. The battery is used during starting and during operation. If engine operation is attempted while the battery is removed, damage to the engine’s electrical components may result.
Caution: Large “Engine Compartment Doors” on each side of enclosure must remain closed during operation. If doors remain open, engine will overheat due to insufficient air flow around engine.
