Electrical safety
Before each use ensure that the load to be connected does not exceed the
power of the current produced by the generator.
To avoid electric shock, you must follow the following instructions:
Do not touch the generator with wet hands.
Do not run the generator under rain or snow.
Do not run the generator near water.
Connect the generator to earth. Use a sufficiently thick
conductor for the earth wire.
Do not operate the generator in parallel with another
generator.
If using electrical extensions, make sure that they are
sufficiently thick to transport the current and that they are used
correctly.
The connection of a generator used for auxiliary power to the
electrical installation of a building must be performed by a qualified
electrician, and in conformity to the provisions of the applicable laws and
norms in the field of electricity. Incorrect connections will cause leakage of
the current from the generator into the lines of the public electricity
company. Such leakage could electrocute the workers of the public
electricity company working on the network or other persons in contact
with the line during a power cut. Also, when the public power supply is
re-established, the generator can explode, catch fire or generate fires in
the building's electrical installation.
