DCA-220SSJ/SSJU — RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

Towing &Transporting Safety

To reduce the possibility of an accident while transporting the generator on public roads, always make sure the trailer that supports the generator and the towing vehicle are in good operating condition and both units are mechanically sound.

The following list of safety precautions should be followed when towing your generator:

CAUTION - FOLLOWTOWING REGULATIONS

Check with your local county or state safety towing regulations, in addition to meeting Department of Transportation (DOT) SafetyTowing Regulations, before towing your generator.

ALWAYS shutdown engine before transporting.

Tighten both fuel tank caps securely.

If generator is mounted on a trailer, make sure trailer complies with all local and state safety transportation laws. Follow the listed Towing & Transporting Safety guidelines for basic towing techniques.

Make sure the hitch and coupling of the towing vehicle are rated equal to, or greater than the trailer "gross vehicle weight rating.”

ALWAYS inspect the hitch and coupling for wear. NEVER tow a trailer with defective hitches, couplings, chains etc.

Check the tire air pressure on both towing vehicle and trailer. Trailer tires should be inflated to 50 psi cold. Also check the tire tread wear on both vehicles.

ALWAYS make sure the trailer is equipped with a "Safety Chain".

ALWAYS attach trailer’s safety chains to towing vehicle properly.

ALWAYS make sure the vehicle and trailer directional, backup, brake, and trailer lights are connected and working properly.

DOT Requirements include the following:

Connect and test electric brake operation.

Secure portable power cables in cable tray with tie wraps.

The maximum speed for highway towing is 55 MPH unless posted otherwise. Recommended off-road towing is not to exceed 15 MPH or less depending on type of terrain.

Place chock blocks underneath wheel to prevent rolling, while parked.

Use the trailer’s swivel jack to adjust the trailer height to a level position while parked.

Avoid sudden stops and starts. This can cause skidding, or jack-knifing. Smooth, gradual starts and stops will improve towing.

Avoid sharp turns.

Trailer should be adjusted to a level position at all times when towing.

Raise and lock trailer wheel stand in up position when transporting.

The maximum speed for highway towing is 55 MPH unless posted otherwise. Recommended off-road towing is not to exceed 15 MPH or less depending on type of terrain.

Place support blocks underneath the trailer’s bumper to prevent tipping, while parked.

Avoid sharp turns to prevent rolling.

DO NOT transport generator with fuel in tank.

Emergencies

ALWAYS know the location of the nearest fire extinguisher.

ALWAYS know the location of the nearest and first aid kit.

ALWAYS know the location of the nearest phone or keep a phone on the job site, in case of emergencies.

ALWAYS have easy access to the phone numbers of the nearest Ambulance, Doctor and Fire Department. This information will be invaluable in the case of an emergency.
