DCA10SPX4/DCA10SPXU4 — RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

WARNING - BURN HAZARDS

To prevent burns, DO NOT touch or open any of the below mentioned components while the engine is

running or immediately after operations. Always allow sufficient time for the engine and generator to cool before performing maintenance.

Radiator Cap - Removing the radiator cap while the engine is hot will result in high pressurized, boiling water to gush out of the radiator, causing severe scalding to any persons in the general area of the generator.

Coolant Drain Plug - Removing the coolant drain plug while the engine is hot will result in hot coolant gushing out of the coolant drain plug, therefore causing severe scalding to any persons in the general area of the generator.

Engine Oil Drain Plug - Removing the engine oil drain plug while the engine is hot will result in hot oil gushing out of the oil drain plug, therefore causing severe scalding to any persons in the general area of the generator.

DO NOT drop the battery.There is the possibility of risk that the battery may explode.

DO NOT expose the battery to open flames, sparks, cigarettes

etc.The battery contains combustible gases and liquids. If these gases and liquids come in contact with a flame or spark, an explosion could occur.

ALWAYS keep the battery charged. If the battery is not charged a buildup of combustible gas will occur.

ALWAYS keep battery charging and cables in good working condition. Repair or replace all worn cables.

ALWAYS recharge the battery in an vented air environment, to avoid risk of a dangerous concentration of combustible gases.

In case the battery liquid (dilute sulfuric acid) comes in contact with clothing or skin, rinse skin or clothing immediately with plenty of water.

In case the battery liquid (dilute sulfuric acid) comes in contact with your EYES, rinse eyes immediately with plenty of water and contact the nearest doctor or hospital to seek medical attention.
