Fuel System | Hazardous Noise |
WARNINGCAUTION
WARNING
Hazardous voltage.
Explosive fuel vapors.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Use extreme care when handling, storing, and using fuels.
The fuel system. Explosive fuel vapors can cause severe injury or death. Vaporized fuels are highly explosive. Use extreme care when handling and storing fuels. Store fuels in a
Gas fuel leaks. Explosive fuel vapors can cause severe injury or death. Fuel leakage can cause an explosion. Check the LP vapor gas or natural gas fuel system for leakage by using a soap and water solution with the fuel system test pressurized to
Hazardous noise.
Can cause hearing loss.
Never operate the generator set without a muffler or with a faulty exhaust system.
Engine noise. Hazardous noise can cause hearing loss. Generator sets not equipped with sound enclosures can produce noise levels greater than
105dBA. Prolonged exposure to noise levels greater than 85 dBA can cause permanent hearing loss. Wear hearing protection when near an operating generator set.
Hazardous Voltage/ Electrical Shock
DANGER
Hazardous voltage.
Will cause severe injury or death.
Disconnect all power sources before opening the enclosure.
WARNING
Hazardous voltage. Moving rotor. Can cause severe injury or death.
Operate the generator set only when all guards and electrical enclosures are in place.
Backfeed to the utility system can cause property damage, severe injury, or death.
If the generator set is used for standby power, install an automatic transfer switch to prevent inadvertent interconnection of standby and normal sources of supply.
CAUTION
Welding the generator set.
Can cause severe electrical equipment damage.
Never weld components of the generator set without first disconnecting the battery, controller wiring harness, and engine electronic control module (ECM).
Grounding electrical equipment. Hazardous voltage can cause severe injury or death. Electrocution is possible whenever electricity is present. Open the main circuit breakers of all power sources before servicing the equipment. Configure the installation to electrically ground the generator set, transfer switch, and related equipment and electrical circuits to comply with applicable codes
and standards. Never contact electrical leads or appliances when standing in water or on wet ground because these conditions increase the risk of electrocution.
