B Electric Wiring
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
Shorting of electric cable or wiring may
cause a fire.
A Check to see if electric cables and
wiring are swollen, hardened or
cracked.
A Keep dust and water away from all
power connections.
Loose wiring and terminal parts
make bad connections, be sure to
repair them before starting the
engine.
Damaged wiring reduces the capacity of electrical parts.
Change or repair damaged wiring immediately.
B Fuse
The electrical system is protected from potential dam-
age by fuses.
A blown fuse indicates that there is an overload or a
short circuit somewhere in the electrical system.
If any of the fuses should blow, replace with a new one
of the same capacity.
A Before replacing a blown fuse, determine why the
fuse blew and make any necessary repairs. Failure
to follow this procedure may result in serious
damage to the generator electrical system. Refer to
the troubleshooting section of this manual or your
local KUBOTA Dealer for specific information.
