WARNING
Toxic Gases
Substances in exhaust gases have been identified by some state and federal
agencies to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity.
Do not breathe in or come into contact with exhaust gases.
WARNING
High Noise Level
Generator sets in operation emit noise, which can cause hearing damage.
Wear appropriate ear protection at all times.
WARNING
Hot Surfaces
Contact with hot surfaces can cause severe burns.
The unit is to be installed so that the risk of hot surface contact by people is
minimized. Wear appropriate PPE when working on hot equipment and avoid
contact with hot surfaces.
WARNING
Combustible Liquid
Ignition of combustible liquids is a fire or explosion hazard which can cause
severe burns or death.
Do not store fuel, cleaners, oil, etc., near the generator set. Do not use
combustible liquids like ether.
WARNING
Combustible Gases
Generator sets in operation have combustible gases under pressure, which
if ignited can cause eye and ear damage.
• Wear appropriate eye and ear protection at all times.
• Do not operate the generator set with any doors open.
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Materials drawn into the generator set, as well as accumulated grease and
oil, are a fire hazard. Fire can cause severe burns or death.
Keep the generator set and the surrounding area clean and free from
obstructions. Make sure the generator set is mounted in a manner to prevent
combustible materials from accumulating under the unit.
