Risk of electrocution and fire
Hazard
What could happen
How to prevent it
Improper storage of extension cord.
Extension cord can come into contact
with hot engine parts resulting in
damage. Using a damaged extension
cord can result in electrocution or
death.
Remove extension cord from the
generator and store separately away
from generator.
Operation of generator in rain, wet,
icy, or flooded conditions.
Water is an excellent conductor of
electricity! Water which comes in
contact with electrically charged
components can transmit electricity
to the frame and other surfaces,
resulting in electrical shock to anyone
contacting them.
Operate generator in a clean, dry, well
ventilated area. Make sure hands are
dry before touching unit.
Placing generator on or against
highly conductive surface, such as a
steel walkway or metal roof.
Accidental leakage of electrical current
could charge conductive surfaces in
contact with the generator.
Place generator on low conductivity
surface such as a concrete slab.
ALWAYS
operate generator a
minimum of 2 meters from any
conductive surface.
Use of worn, damaged or
ungrounded extension cords.
Contact with worn or damaged
extension cords could result in
electrocution.
Use of ungrounded cordsets could
prevent operation of circuit breakers
and result in electrical shock.
Inspect extension cords before use and
replace with new cord if required.
Always use a cordset having a
grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug. DO NOT use an
ungrounded plug.
Operation of unit when damaged,
or with guards or panels removed.
Attempting to use the unit when it
has been damaged, or when it is not
functioning normally could result in fire
or electrocution.
Removal of guarding could expose
electrically charged components and
result in electrocution.
Do not operate generator with
mechanical or electrical problem.
Have unit repaired by an Authorised
Service Centre.
Do not operate generator with
protective guarding removed.
Risk of fire
Hazard
What could happen
How to prevent it
Attempting to fill the fuel
tank while the engine is
running.
Fuel and fuel vapours can become ignited
by coming in contact with hot components
such as the muffler, engine exhaust gases,
or from an electrical spark.
Turn engine off and allow it to cool before
adding fuel to the tank. Equip area of
operation with a fire extinguisher certified
to handle fuel fires.
Sparks, fire, hot objects
Cigarettes, sparks, fires, or other hot
objects can cause fuel or fuel vapours
to ignite.
Add fuel to tank in well ventilated area.
Make sure there are no sources of ignition
near the generator.
Improper storage of fuel
Improperly stored fuel could lead to
accidental ignition. Fuel improperly secured
could get into the hands of children or other
unqualified persons.
Store fuel in an approved container
designed to hold fuel. Store container in
secure location to prevent use by others.
Tampering with factory set
engine speed settings.
Engine speed has been factory set to
provide safe operation. Tampering with
the engine speed adjustment could result
in overheating of attachments and could
cause a fire.
Never attempt to “speed-up” the engine to
obtain more performance. The output of
this generator is electronically controlled
and the change to the speed setting will not
alter the electrical output.
Inadequate ventilation
for generator
Materials placed against or near the
generator or operating the generator in
areas where the temperature exceeds 40°C.
ambient (such as storage rooms or garages)
can interfere with its proper ventilation
features causing overheating and possible
ignition of the materials or buildings.
Operate generator in a clean, dry,
well ventilated area.
DO NOT OPERATE UNIT INDOORS
OR IN ANY CONFINED AREA.
Overfilling the fuel tank
– fuel spillage.
Spilled fuel and its vapours can become
ignited from hot surfaces or sparks.
Use care in filling the tank to avoid spilling
fuel. Make sure fuel cap is secured tightly
and check engine for fuel leaks before
starting engine. Move generator away
from refuelling area or any spillage before
starting engine. Allow for fuel expansion.
Never refuel with the engine running.
Safety Risk
Safety Risk
Safety Risk
Risk of injury and property damage when transporting generator
Hazard
What could happen
How to prevent it
Fire, inhalation, damage
to vehicle surfaces
Fuel or oil can leak or spill and
could result in fire or breathing
hazard, serious injury or death
can result. Fuel or oil leaks can
damage carpet, paint or other
surfaces in vehicles or trailers.
The generator is equipped with a fuel drain valve,
turn the valve to the off position before transporting to
avoid fuel leaks. Transport fuel only in an approved fuel
container. Always place generator on a protective mat
when transporting to protect against damage to vehicle
from leaks. Remove generator from vehicle immediately
upon arrival at your destination.
Risk of breathing – inhalation hazard
Hazard
What could happen
How to prevent it
Fuel engines produce
toxic carbon monoxide
exhaust fumes.
Breathing exhaust fumes will
cause serious injury or death.
Operate generator in clean, dry, well ventilated area.
Never operate unit in enclosed areas such as garages,
basements, storage, sheds, or in any location occupied
by humans or animals. Keep children, pets and others
away from area of operating unit.
