Despite the safe design of this generator,
operating this equipment imprudently, neglect-
ing its maintenance or being careless can
cause possible injury or death. Permit only
responsible and capable persons to install,
operate and maintain this equipment.
Potentially lethal voltages are generated by
these machines. Ensure all steps are taken to
render the machine safe before attempting to
work on the generator.
n
Parts of the generator are rotating and/or
hot during operation. Exercise care near run-
ning generators.
n
Installation must always comply with appli-
cable codes, standards, laws and regula-
tions.
n
A running generator gives off carbon mon-
oxide, and odorless, colorless poison gas.
Breathing in carbon monoxide can cause
headaches, fatigue, diziness, nausea, vomit-
ting, confusion, fainting, siezures or death.
