FIRE AND EXPLOSION PRECAUTIONS

11.Install sound and weather proofing only when it is not raining or snowing to avoid trapping moisture with the Generator’s area.

FIRE AND EXPLOSION PRECAUTIONS

1.Gasoline fuel and fumes are flammable, and potentially explosive. Use proper fuel storage and handling procedures. Always have multiple ABC class fire extinguishers nearby.

2.Keep the Generator and surrounding areas clean at all times.

3.When spills of fuel or oil occur, they must be cleaned up immediately. Dispose of fluids and cleaning materials as per any local, state, or federal codes and regulations. Store oil rags in a covered metal container.

4.Never store fuel or other flammable materials near the Generator.

5.Do not smoke, or allow sparks, flames, or other sources of ignition around the Generator.

6.Keep grounded conductive objects, such as tools, away from exposed, live electrical parts and connections to avoid sparking or arcing. These events could ignite fumes or vapors.

7.Do not refill the Fuel Tank while the Engine is running or while the Engine is still hot. Do not operate the Generator with known leaks in the fuel system.

8.Excessive buildup of unburned fuel gases in the exhaust system can create a potentially explosive condition. This buildup can occur after repeated failed start attempts, valve testing, or hot engine shutdown. If this occurs, open exhaust system drain plugs, if equipped, and allow the gases to dissipate before attempting to restart the Generator.

9.Use only Engine manufacturer recommended fuel and oil.
