Safety Precautions and Instructions
Electrical backfeed to the utility.
Hazardous backfeed voltage can
cause
severe
injury
or
death.
Connect the generator set to the
building/marina electrical system only
through an approved device and after
the building/marina main switch is
opened.
Backfeed connections can
cause severe injury or death to utility
personnel working on power lines
and/or personnel near the work area.
Some states and localities prohibit
unauthorized connection to the utility
electrical
system.
Install
a
ship-to-shore transfer switch to prevent
interconnection of the generator set
power and shore power.
Testing
live
electrical
circuits.
Hazardous voltage or current can
cause severe injury or death.
Have
trained and qualified personnel take
diagnostic
measurements
of
live
circuits.
Use adequately rated test
equipment with electrically insulated
probes and follow the instructions of the
test equipment manufacturer when
performing voltage tests. Observe the
following precautions when performing
voltage tests: (1) Remove all jewelry.
(2) Stand on a dry, approved electrically
insulated mat. (3) Do not touch the
enclosure or components inside the
enclosure.
(4) Be prepared for the
system to operate automatically.
(600 volts and under)
Hot Parts
Hot coolant and steam.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Before removing the pressure cap,
stop the generator set and allow it to
cool. Then loosen the pressure cap
to relieve pressure.
WARNING
Hot engine and exhaust system.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Do not work on the generator set until
it cools.
WARNING
Hot engine oil.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Avoid skin contact with hot oil. Do not
start or operate the generator set with
the engine oil filler cap removed, as
hot oil can spray out. Ensure that the
lubrication system is not under
pressure when servicing.
Do not
work on the generator set until it
cools.
WARNING
Checking the coolant level.
Hot
coolant can cause severe injury or
death.
Allow the engine to cool.
Release pressure from the cooling
system before removing the pressure
cap. To release pressure, cover the
pressure cap with a thick cloth and then
slowly turn the cap counterclockwise to
the first stop. Remove the cap after
pressure
has
been
completely
released and the engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level at the tank if the
generator set has a coolant recovery
tank.
Servicing the exhaust system. Hot
parts can cause severe injury or
death.
Do not touch hot engine parts.
The
engine
and
exhaust
system
components become extremely hot
during operation.
Moving Parts
Hazardous voltage.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Operate the generator set only when
all guards and electrical enclosures
are in place.
Moving rotor.
WARNING
Rotating parts.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Operate the generator set only when
all guards, screens, and covers are in
place.
WARNING
Airborne particles.
Can
cause
severe
injury
or
blindness.
Wear protective goggles and clothing
when using power tools, hand tools,
or compressed air.
