1.3 AC Safety Guidelines

• Before connecting the generator to an electrical device or power cord.
• Make sure that everything is in proper working order. Faulty devices or power cords can lead to
electrical shock.
• Turn off the generator immediately if the device begins to operate abnormally. Then disconnect the
device and investigate the problem.
• Make sure that the electrical rating of the device does not exceed that of the generator. If the power
level of the device is between the maximum output power and the running power of the generator,
the generator should not be used for more than 30 minutes.
• The connection from the generator to the household power supply should be done by professional
electrical technicians. Improper connections may lead to a fire hazard or damage to the generator
set.

1.4 Maintenance safety

• After any maintenance is performed, wash your body immediately using soap and clean water
because repeated exposure to lubricant may cause skin irritation.
• Do not clean the filter sponge with flammable fluids like gasoline because explosion may occur.
• Turn off the generator set before performing any maintenance. Otherwise it can cause severe
personal injury or death.
• Allow the generator set to cool down before performing any maintenance.
• Always wear safety glasses when cleaning the generator set with air.
• Do not clean the generator set with a pressure washer because it can cause damage to the genera-
tor set.
• Before working with batteries, ventilate the area, wear safety glasses, do not smoke, and always
disconnect the negative cable first and reconnect it last.
• Use rubber gloves when coming into contact with engine oil.
• Always stop the generator set before removing the oil filter cap.
• Only qualified maintenance personnel with knowledge of fuels, electricity, and machinery hazards
should perform maintenance procedures.

1.5 Other safety hazards

• To avoid breathing in poisonous carbon monoxide from the exhaust gases, adequate ventilation
should be provided if the generator set is running in a partially enclosed space.
• If the generator set is stored outdoors, check all the electrical components on the control panel
before each use. Moisture can damage the generator and can lead to electric shock.
