Safety Precautions and Instructions
Servicing

power sources before servicing. Open
the main circuit breakers of all transfer
switch power sources and disable all
generator sets as follows: (1) Move all

cables,
Reconnect negative (--) leads last when
reconnecting the battery cables after

servicing. Follow these precautions to
prevent the starting of generator sets
by an automatic transfer switch, remote
start/stop switch, or engine start
command from a remote computer.
Before servicing any components
inside the enclosure: (1) Remove all
jewelry. (2) Stand on a dry, approved

NOTICE
When replacing hardware, do not

hardware.
Screws and nuts are
available in different hardness ratings.
To
indicate
hardness,
Standard hardware uses a series of
markings, and metric hardware uses a
numeric system. Check the markings
on the bolt heads and nuts for
identification.
NOTICE
Electrostatic discharge damage.
Electrostatic
discharge
damages electronic circuit boards.
Prevent
electrostatic
damage by wearing an approved
grounding wrist strap when handling
electronic circuit boards or integrated
circuits. An approved grounding wrist
strap provides a high resistance (about
1 megohm), not a direct short, to
ground.
