Fire and Burn Hazards
l The exhaust system gets hot enough to ignite some materials.
-Keep the generator at least 1 meter (3 feet) away from buildings
and other equipment during operation.
-Do not enclose the generator in any structure.
-Keep flammable materials away from the generator.
l The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for
awhile after stopping the engine. Be careful not to touch the muffler
while it is hot. Let the engine cool before storing the generator indoors.
l Diesel fuel is flammable, and fuel vapor can explode. Refuel in a well
ventilated area with the engine stopped. Keep flames and sparks away,
and do not smoke in the area.
l Diesel fuel may spill and ignite if the generator is tilted or overturned.
Place the generator on a firm, level surface. Avoid loose sand or snow.
Carbon Monoxide Hazards
l Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, a colorless and
odorless gas. Breathing exhaust can cause loss of consciousness and
may lead to death.
l If you run the generator in an area that is confined, or even partially
enclosed, the air you breathe could contain a dangerous amount of
exhaust gas. To keep exhaust gas from building up, provide adequate
ventilation.
