Warning Statements Continued

Burn

WARNING: Parts of this generator are extremely hot during and after operation. To prevent severe burns, do not touch any part of the generator until you have first determined if the part is hot. Wear protective clothing and after use allow sufficient time for parts to cool before touching any part of the generator.

WARNING: Do not touch the hot exhaust parts or the high voltage spark plug or coil terminals of the engine. Although spark plug voltages are not normally lethal, a sudden involuntary jerk of the hand or body part caused by contact with high voltage or a hot surface can result in injury to yourself or others.

Installation

WARNING: Installation and repair procedures requires specialized skills with electrical generating equipment and small engine systems. Any person that installs or performs repairs must have these specialized skills to ensure that the generator set is safe to operate. Contact Baldor for installation or repairs.

WARNING: Be sure all wiring complies with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all regional and local codes or CE Compliance. Improper wiring may cause a hazardous condition and exposure to electrical hazards can cause serious injury or death.

WARNING: Be sure the system is properly grounded before applying power. Do not apply AC power before you ensure that grounds are connected. Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury. NEC requires that the frame and exposed conductive surfaces (metal parts) be connected to an approved earth ground. Local codes may also require proper grounding of generator systems.

WARNING: Place protective covers over all rotating parts such as drive shaft, pulley, belt etc. Rotating parts cause extremely dangerous situations because they can catch loose clothing or extremities and cause serious or fatal injury.

WARNING: Unauthorized modification of a generator set may make the unit unsafe for operation or may impair the operation of the unit. Never start a generator set that has been modified or tampered with. Be sure that all covers and guards are properly installed and that the unit is safe before starting the engine. If you are unsure, contact Baldor before starting the engine.

WARNING: When moving the generator, use reasonable caution. Be careful where you place fingers and toes to prevent injury “Pinch Points”. Never try to lift a generator without a hoist or lift means because they are heavy and bodily injury may result.

WARNING: When transporting a generator (especially if it has wheel option installed) secure the unit to prevent movement during transport.

WARNING: Never connect this generator to any buildings electrical system unless a licensed electrician has installed an approved transfer switch. The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires that connection of a generator to any electrical circuit normally powered by means of an electric utility must be connected by means of approved transfer switch equipment so as to isolate the electrical circuit from the utility distribution system when the generator is operating. Failure to isolate the electrical circuits by such means may result in injury or death to utility power workers due to backfeed of electrical energy onto the utility lines.

WARNING: Circuit overload protection must be provided in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local regulations.

WARNING: Check Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt (GFCI) receptacles monthly by using the “Test” and “Reset” buttons.

WARNING: Only a professional experienced technician should install a fuel supply system. Gasoline and diesel fuel are flammable and can cause fire, explosions, injury or death. Fuel supply lines should be kept away from sharp objects to prevent rupture. Comply with all NFPA regulations and local codes for shut–off valves, regulators, fuel line type etc.

WARNING: Have electrical circuits and wiring installed and checked by licensed electrician or qualified technician. Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury.

WARNING: Incorrect installation of this generator set could result in property damage, injury or death. Connection of the generator to its fuel source must be done by a qualified professional technician or contractor.
