Safety
1.3 — Electrical Hazards
• All generators produce dangerous electrical voltages
that can cause fatal electrical shock. Utility power deliv-
ers extremely high and dangerous voltages to the trans-
fer switch, as does the standby generator when it is in
operation. Avoid contact with bare wires, terminals, con-
nections, etc. while the unit is running. Ensure all appro-
priate covers, guards and barriers are in place, secured
and/or locked before operating the generator. If work
must be done around an operating unit, stand on an
insulated, dry surface to reduce potential shock hazard.
• Do not handle any kind of electrical device while stand-
ing in water, while barefoot or while hands or feet are
wet.
DANGEROUS
RESULT.
• This is an Automatic Standby Generator. The generator
may crank and start at any time when utility is lost. When
this occurs, load circuits are transferred to the STANDBY
(generator) power source. Before working on this gener-
ator (for inspection, service or maintenance), to prevent
possible injury, always set the generator to the OFF
mode and remove the 7.5A fuse from the generator con-
trol panel.
• In case of an accident caused by electric shock, immedi-
ately shut down the source of electrical power. If this is
not possible, attempt to free the victim from the live con-
ductor. AVOID DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM.
Use a nonconducting implement, such as a dry rope or
board, to free the victim from the live conductor. If the
victim is unconscious, apply first aid and get immediate
medical help.
• Never wear jewelry when working on this equipment.
Jewelry can conduct electricity resulting in electric shock
or may get caught in moving components resulting in
injury.
WARNING
Moving Parts. Do not wear jewelry when starting
or operating this product. Wearing jewelry while
starting or operating this product could result
in death or serious injury.

1.4 — Explosion Hazards
• Do not smoke around the generator. Wipe up any fuel or
oil spills immediately. Ensure that no combustible materi-
als are left in the generator compartment or on or near
the generator as FIRE or EXPLOSION may result. Keep
the area surrounding the generator clean and free from
debris.
• Gaseous fluids, such as natural gas and liquid propane
(LP) gas, are extremely EXPLOSIVE. Install the fuel sup-
ply system according to applicable fuel-gas codes.
Before placing the home standby electric system into
service, fuel system lines must be properly purged and
leak tested according to applicable code. Inspect the fuel
MAY
system periodically for leaks. No leakage can be permit-
ted.
