GA-4.5R/GA-4.5RA Rules for Safe Operation

GA-4.5R/GA-4.5RA — RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

■ALWAYS be sure the operator is familiar with proper safety precautions and operation techniques before using generator.

■NEVER leave the generator unattended, turn off engine when unattended.

■Unauthorized equipment modifications will void all warranties.

■ALWAYS ensure generator is on level ground before use.

■DO NOT place hands or fingers inside generator engine compartment when engine is running.

■NEVER run engine without air cleaner. Severe engine damage may occur.

■NEVER change or adjust the engine speed which has been set at the factory prior to shipping.

Power Cord Safety

■NEVER let power cables or cords lay in water.

■NEVER stand in water while AC power from the generator is being transfer to a load.

■NEVER use a defective or frayed power cable. Check the cable for cuts in the insulation.

■NEVER use a extension cord that is frayed or damaged where the insulation has been cut.

■ALWAYS make certain that proper power or extension cord has been selected for the job See Table 3.

Grounding Safety

■ALWAYS make sure that electrical circuits are properly grounded per the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local codes before operating generator. Severe injury or death! by electrocution can result from operating an ungrounded generator.

■ALWAYS make sure generator is properly grounded to a suitable earth ground (GROUND ROD). See installation section in this manual.

■NEVER use gas piping as an electrical ground.

Maintenance Safety

■NEVER lubricate components or attempt service on a running machine.

■HighTemperatures – Always stop engine and allow the engine to cool before adding fuel, oil or performing service and maintenance functions. Contact with hot! components can cause serious burns.

■Keep the machinery in proper running condition.

■Fix damage to the machine immediately and replace any broken parts immediately.

■ALWAYS replace any worn or damaged warning decals.

■ALWAYS store equipment properly when it is not being used. Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location out of the reach of children and un-authorized personnel.

■The electrical voltage required to operate the generator can cause severe injury or even death through physical contact with live circuits. Turn all circuit breakers OFF before performing maintenance on the generator.

■Dispose of hazardous waste properly.Examples of potentially hazardous waste are used motor oil, fuel and fuel filters.

■DO NOT use food or plastic containers to dispose of hazardous waste.

■DO NOT pour waste, oil or fuel directly onto the ground, down a drain or into any water source.

■Removing the engine oil drain plug while the engine is hot will result in hot oil to gush out of the oil drain plug, therefore causing severescaldingtoanypersonsinthegeneral area of the generator.
