WARNING

All specific cautions and warnings contained in this manual shall be strictly adhered to. Othewise, severe injury,

death and/or damage to the equipment may result.

WARNING

Hot refueling of generators while they are operating, poses a safety hazard and should not be attempted. Hot engine

surfaces and sparks produced from the engine and generator circuitry are possible sources of ignition. Severe

injury, death and/or damage to the equipment may result.

HIGH VOLTAGE

is produced when this generator set is in operation.

DEATH

or severe burns may result if personnel fail to observe safety precautions. Do not operate this generator set until the

ground terminal stud has been connected to a suitable ground. Disconnect the battery ground cable before

removing and installing components on the engine or in the electrical control panel system. Do not attempt to

service or otherwise make any adjustments, connections or reconnection of wires or cables until generator set is

shut-down and completely deenergized.

DANGEROUS GASES

Batteries generate explosive gas during charging therefore, utilize extreme caution, do not smoke, or use open

flame in vicinity when servicing batteries. Use only Slave Receptacle (SR1) when extra cranking power is required;

Incorrect method of slaving could cause arcing at battery terminals. Exhaust discharge contains noxious and

deadly fumes. Do not operate generator sets in enclosed areas unless exhaust discharge is properly vented to the

outside. When filling fuel tank, maintain metal-to-metal contact between filler nozzle and fuel tank. Do not smoke

or use an open flame between filler nozzle and fuel tank. Do not smoke or use an open flame in the vicinity. Use

extreme care, should a selenium rectifier malfunction, to avoid inhalation of poisonous fumes.

LIQUIDS UNDER PRESSURE

are generated as a result of operation of the generator set. Do not expose any part of the body to a high pressure leak

in the fuel or hydraulic system of the generator set. Relieve pressure from radiator before removing radiator cap.

NOISE

operating level of this generator can cause hearing damage. Ear protectors, as recommended by the medical or

safety officer, must be worn when working near this set.

BATTERY ACID

Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid which can cause severe burns. Always dilute electrolyte with water. Never

pour water into electrolyte: spattering of the electrolyte may result. If electrolyte comes in contact with skin or

clothing, rinse immediately with clean water.

If acoustic suppression kit is installed, do not allow personnel to open or close exhaust discharge door when unit is

hot. Serious burns or personal injury may result.
