Maintenance

WARNING: Before cleaning, inspecting, repairing or performing any maintenance to the generator set, always be sure the engine has stopped and that all rotating parts have also stopped. After stopping, certain components are still extremely hot so be careful not to get burned. Before servicing the generator set, be sure to disconnect the spark plug wires and the battery terminals to prevent accidental engine rotation or starting.

WARNING: Engine coolant is under pressure and is near the boiling point of water when engine is hot. Do not open the coolant system until the engine has completely cooled. Hot coolant can cause severe burns and other injuries. When engine is cool, coolant level can be checked.

WARNING: Before servicing the generator set, be sure to disconnect the spark plug wires and the battery terminals to prevent accidental engine rotation or starting.

WARNING: Inspect all wiring frequently and replace any damaged, broken or frayed wiring or wires with damaged insulation immediately. Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury.

WARNING: Disconnect all electrical wires and load devices from generator power outlets before servicing the generator. Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury. Always treat electrical circuits as if they are energized.

WARNING: Check all fuel supply piping, and their connections monthly for fuel leaks. LPG and natural gas fuels are flammable and can cause fire, explosions, injury or death. If a leak is found, replace only with approved pipe or components.

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 return the generator for repair.

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.
