Battery

CAUTION:

Never over fill the battery with water above the upper limit.

The battery contains acids that can cause injury to the eyes and skin. To avoid eye irritation, always wear safety glasses. Use well insulated gloves when picking up the battery. Use the following guidelines when handling the battery:

1.DO NOT drop the battery. There is the possibility of risk that the battery may explode.

2.DO NOT expose the battery to open flames, sparks, cigarettes etc. The battery contains combustible gases and liquids. If these gases and liquids come in contact with a flame or spark, an explosion could occur.

3.Always keep the battery charged. If the battery is not charged a buildup of combustible gas will occur.

4.Always keep battery charging and booster cables in good working condition. Repair or replace all worn cables.

5.Always recharge the battery in an open air environment, to avoid risk of a dangerous concentration of combustible gases.

6.In case the battery liquid (dilute sulfuric acid) comes in contact with clothing or skin, rinse skin or clothing immediately with plenty of water.

7.In case the battery liquid (dilute sulfuric acid) comes in contact with your eyes, rinse eyes immediately with plenty of water, then contact the nearest doctor or hospital, and seek medical attention.

RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

NEVER Run engine without air filter. Severe engine damage may occur.

Always service air cleaner frequently to prevent carburetor malfunction.

Always disconnect the battery before performing service on the generator.

Always be sure the operator is familiar with proper safety precautions and operations techniques before using generator.

Always store equipment properly when not in use. Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location out of the reach of children.

DO NOT leave the generator running in the manual mode unattended.

DO NOT allow unauthorized people to operate this equipment.

Always read, understand, and follow procedures in Operator’s Manual before attempting to operate equipment.

Refer to the Komatsu Engine Owner's Manual for engine technical questions or information.

Loading and Unloading (Crane)

Before lifting, make sure the generator's lifting hook is secure and that there is no apparent damage to the generator itself (loose screws, nuts and bolts). If any part is loose or damaged, please take corrective action before lifting.

Always drain fuel prior to lifting.

Make sure the crane or lifting device has been properly secured to the hook of guard frame on generator.

NEVER lift the machine while the engine is running.

Use adequate lifting cable (wire or straps) of sufficient strength.

When lifting the generator, always use the balanced center-point suspension hook and lift straight upwards.

NEVER allow any person or animal to stand underneath the machine while lifting.

When loading the generator on a truck, be sure to use the front and back frame bars as a means to secure the generator during transport.
