Outdoor Installation
Install the generator in a location where it will not be exposed to rain or sunshine. Make sure that the generator is on secure level ground so that it cannot slide or shift around. Also install the generator in a manner so that the exhaust will not be discharged in the direction of nearby homes.
The installation site must be relatively free from moisture and dust. All electrical equipment should be protected from excessive moisture.Failure to do will result in deterioration of the insulation and will result in short circuits and grounding.
Foreign materials such as dust, sand, lint and abrasive materials have a tendency to cause excessive wear, not only to the engine parts, but also to the alternator parts.
GA-6RZ2— INSTALLATION
Indoor Installation
Exhaust gases from gasoline engines are extremely poisonous. Whenever an engine is installed indoors the exhaust fumes must be vented to the outside. The engine should be installed at least two feet from any outside wall. Using an exhaust pipe which is too long or too small can cause excessive back pressure which will cause the engine to heat excessively and possibly burn the valves.
Eliminate the danger of deadly carbon monoxide gas. Remember that exhaust fumes from any gasoline engine are very poisonous if discharged in a closed room, but harmless if allowed to mix with the outside air.If the generator is installed indoors, you must make provisions for venting the engine exhaust to the outside of the building.
CAUTION :CAUTION :
Pay close attention to ventilation when operating the generator inside confined areas. The engine exhaust contains noxious elements.
An electric shock is apt to happen when vibrators are used. Pay close attention to handling when operating vibrators and always use rubber boots and gloves to insulate the body from a short circuit.
