2. Fuel System - Fuel Vapors are highly explosive and can cause severe injury or death. Use extreme care
when handling and storing fuels. Store fuels in a well-ventilated area away from spark-producing
equipment, gas hot water heaters and out of the reach of children. Never add fuel while the engine is
running or hot, fuel spills may ignite on contact with hot parts and muffler. Do not operate under the
influence of drugs and alcohol or smoke. when operating around sparks or open flames. Keep fuel lines
and connections tight and in good working condition.
3. Servicing the exhaust system. Hot parts can cause severe injury. Do not touch hot engine parts. The
engine and exhaust system components become extremely hot during operation.
4. Servicing the engine. Hot parts can cause personal injury or property damage. Keep the generator at
least 2m (6ft) distance from other devices.
5. Grounding electrical equipment. Hazardous voltage can cause severe injury or
032-5095-1A-EN
death. Electrocution is possible whenever electricity is present. Ensure you comply with
all applicable state and local codes and standards. Electrically ground the generator set,
transfer switch, and related equipment and electrical circuits. Turn off the main circuit
breakers of all power sources before servicing the equipment. Never contact electrical
leads or appliances when standing in water or on wet ground because these conditions
increase the risk of electrocution. It is highly recommended that a barrier exists between
you and the ground surface at all times. We recommend using a wooden pallet with
rubber mat on top to stand on while working or servicing the standby generator.
Grounding is required of all AC circuits, use terminal (identify terminal) for bonding this
circuit to the enclosure with a grounding rod (Not provided with unit). Ground the
enclosure to a grounding electrode in accordance with state and local code
requirements.
