Warning Statements Continued

Maintenance

WARNING: Before cleaning, inspecting, repairing, refueling 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 tanks, supply piping, and their connections monthly for fuel leaks. Gasoline and diesel fuel are flammable and can cause fire, explosions, injury or death. If a leak is found, replace only with approved pipe or components.

WARNING: A battery presents a risk of fire and explosion because they generate hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas is extremely explosive. Never jump start a battery, smoke in the area around the battery or cause any spark to occur in the area around the battery.

WARNING: Do not mutilate the battery or dispose of a battery in a fire. The battery is capable of exploding. If the battery explodes, electrolyte solution will be released in all directions. Battery electrolyte solution is caustic and can cause severe burns and blindness. If electrolyte contacts skin or eyes, immediately flush the area with water and seek medical attention quickly.

WARNING: A battery presents a risk of electrical shock hazard and high short circuit current. Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury. Never wear jewelry, watch or any metal objects when in the area around the battery.

WARNING: The battery electrolyte is a dilute sulfuric acid that is harmful to the skin and eyes. It is electrically conductive and corrosive. If electrolyte contacts the skin, flush the area immediately with water and wash it off using soap and water. If electrolyte contacts the eyes, immediately flush the eye thoroughly with water and seek medical attention quickly.

WARNING: The capacitor used in this generator can store and discharge a high voltage charge. Before working with or in the area of the capacitor, discharge the capacitor by shorting its leads together with a screwdriver with an insulated handle or insulated jumper wire.

WARNING: Be extremely careful when flashing the generator. When the alternator cover is removed rotating parts and high voltage are present. Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury. Rotating parts can present extreme danger if clothing or body extremities are caught by the rotating part and can cause serious or fatal injury.

WARNING: Never store an engine with fuel in its tank indoors or in an enclosed, poorly ventilated area where gasoline fumes could reach an ignition source and cause an explosion.
