All specific cautions and warnings contained in this manual shall be strictly adhered to. Otherwise, severe injury, death and/or damage to the equipment may result. HIGH VOLTAGE is produced when this generator set is in operation. DEATH or severe burns may result if personnel fail to observe safety precautions. Do not operate this generator set until the ground terminal stud has been connected to a suitable ground. Disconnect the battery ground cable before removing and installing components on the engine or in the electrical control panel system. Do not attempt to service or otherwise make any adjustments, connections or reconnections of wires or cables until generator set is shut-down and completely de-energized. DANGEROUS GASES Batteries generate explosive gas during charging; therefore, utilize extreme caution, do not smoke, or use open flame in vicinity when servicing batteries. Use only Slave Receptacle (SR1) when extra cranking power is required, as incorrect method of slaving could cause arcing at battery terminals. Exhaust discharge contains noxious and deadly fumes. Do not operate generator sets in endosed areas unless exhaust discharge is properly vented to the outside. When filling fuel tank, maintain metal-to-metal contact between filler nozzle and fuel tank. Do not smoke or use an open flame in the vicinity. Use extreme care, should a selenium rectifier malfunction, to avoid inhalation of poisonous fumes. LIQUIDS UNDER PRESSURE are generated as a result of the generator set. Do not expose any part of the body to a high pressure leak in the fuel or hydraulic system of the generator set. Relieve pressure from radiator before removing radiator cap. NOISE operating level of this generator can cause hearing damage. Ear protectors, as recommended by the medical or safety officer, must be worn when working near this set.

DAMAGE to the equipment may result if personnel fail to observe the cautions contained in this manual. If generator set is shut down by the operation of a safety device, do not attempt to operate the unit until the cause has been determined and eliminated. HEAT If acoustic suppression kit is installed, do not allow personnel to open or close exhaust discharge door when unit is hot. Serious burns or personnel injury may result.

Hot refueling of generators while they are operating poses a safety hazard and should not be attempted. Hot engine surfaces and sparks produced from the engine and generator circuitry are possible sources of ignition. Severe Injury, death to personnel and/or damage to the equipment may result. ROTATING PARTS Severe injury may result from contact with moving or rotating components such as fan blades, pulleys, and belts. Do not attempt to service or make any adjustments in the vicinity of such components while generator set is in operation. Do not operate without all guards in place.
