DCA-20SPX — RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

DANGER-Electrocution Hazards

During operation of this generation, there exists the possibility of electrocution, electrical shock or burn, which can cause severe bodily harm or even

DEATH!

To avoid these hazards:

NEVER use damaged or worn cables when connecting equipment to the generator.Make sure power connecting cables are securely connected to the generator’s output receptacles, incorrect connections may cause damage to the generators and electrical shock.

NEVER grab or touch a live power cord with wet hands, the possibility exist of electrical shock, electrocution, and even death!

NEVER insert any objects into the output receptacles during operation. This is extremely dangerous. ALWAYS turn-off

the generators and place all circuit breakers in the “OFF” position when contact with the output receptacles is required. There exist the possibility of electrocution, electrical shock or burn, which can cause severe bodily harm or even death!

Backfeed to a utility system can cause electrocution and or property damage. NEVER connect the generators to a building's electrical system without a transfer switch or other approved device. All installations should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with all applicable laws and electrical codes. Failure to do so could result in electrical shock or burn causing serious injury or even death!

DANGER-Lethal Exhaust Gas Hazards

Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide. This gas is colorless and odorless, and can cause death if inhaled. NEVER operate this equipment in a confined area or enclosed structure that does not provide ample free flow air.

DANGER

Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES.

Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide. This is a posion you cannot see or smell
