AND FBRE ={cont'd}
HAZARD
Operation of generator in rain, wet, icy,
or flooded conditions.
Use of worn damaged, undersized or un-
grounded extension cords.
Placing generator on or against highly
conductive
surface,
such as a steel
walkway or metal roof.
Improper connection of items to gen-
erator.
Operation of unit when damaged, or with
guards or panels removed.
WHAT COULD HAPPEN
Water is an excellent conductor of
electricity! Water which comes in
contact with electricity charged
components can transmit electricity to
the frame and other surfaces, resulting
in electrical shock to anyone contact-
ing them.
Contact with worn or damaged exten-
sion cords could result in electrocution.
Use of undersize extension cords could
result in overheating of the wires or at-
tached items, resulting in fire.
Use of ungrounded cordsets could pre-
vent operation of circuit breakers and
result in electrical shock.
Accidental leakage of electrical current
could charge conductive
surfaces in
contact with the generator.
Exceeding the load capacity of the gen-
erator by attaching too many items, or
items with very high load ratings to it
could result in overheating
of some
items or their attachment wiring result-
ing in fire or electrical shock.
Attempting to use the unit when it has
been damaged, or when it is not func-
tioning normally could result in fire or
electrocution.
Removal of guarding could expose elec=
trically charged components and result
in electrocution.
HOW TO PRI:VENT iT
Operate generator in a clean, dry,
well ventilated
area.
Make sure
hands are dry before touching unit.
Inspect extension cords before use
and replace with new if required.
Use proper size (wire gauge) cordset
for application.
Always
use electrically
grounded
cordset.
Place generator on low conductivity
surface such as a concrete slab.
Read the load rating chart and in-
structions
on page 9, 10 and 11.
Make sure that the summation
of
electrical loads for all attachments
does not exceed the load rating of
the generator.
Do not operate generator with me-
chanical or electrical problem. Have
unit repaired by an Authorized Ser-
vice Center.
Do not operate generator with pro-
tective guarding removed.
