2.1 The importance of proper servicing
Proper servicing is essential to the safety of the operator and the reliability of the generator.
Any error or oversight made by the technician while servicing can easily result in faulty
operation and/or damage to the equipment or injury to the operator.
WARNING
* Improper servicing can cause an unsafe condition that can lead to serious injury or death.
* Follow the procedures and precautions in this shop manual carefully.
Some of the most important precautions are stated below.

2.2 Important safety precautions

Be sure you have a clear understanding of all basic shop safety practices and that you are
wearing appropriate clothing and safety equipment. When performing maintenance or repairs,
be especially careful of the following:
*Read the instructions before you begin, and be sure you have the tools and skills required
to perform the tasks safely.
*Be sure that the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or repairs. This will reduce
the possibility of several hazards:
- Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust.
- Burns from hot parts.
- Injury from moving parts.
*Do not run the engine unless the instructions tell you to do so. Keep your hands and clothing
away from rotating parts.
*To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, exercise extreme caution when working around
gasoline. Use only a nonflammable solvent, not gasoline, to clean parts. Keep cigarettes,
sparks and flames away from all fuel-related parts.
