SAFETY RULES
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - This manual

contains important instructions that should
be followed during installation and mainte-
nance of the generator and batteries.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS! Read the fol-

lowing information carefully before attempt-
ing to install, operate or service this equip-
ment. Also read the instructions and infor-
mation on tags, decals, and labels that may
be affixed to the transfer switch. Replace any
decal or label that is no longer legible.
DANGER! Connection of a generator to an

electrical system normally supplied by an
electric utility shall be by means of suitable
transfer equipment so as to isolate the elec-
tric system from utility distribution system
when the generator is operating (Article 701
Legally Required Standby Systems or Article
702 Optional Standby Systems, as appli-
cable). Failure to isolate electric system by
these means may result in damage to gen-
erator and may result in injury or death to
utility workers due to backfeed of electrical
energy.
The manufacturer cannot anticipate every possible circumstance
that might involve a hazard. The warnings in this manual, and on
tags and decals affixed to the unit are, therefore, not all-inclusive. If
using a procedure, work method or operating technique the manu-
facturer does not specifically recommend, ensure that it is safe for
others. Also make sure the procedure, work method or operating
technique chosen does not render the transfer switch unsafe.
