Connection and choice of cables
For all connections, use flexible, strong rubber-sheathed cables which comply with standard IEC 60245-4 or equivalent cables, and
ensure that these are kept in perfect condition. Only use one item of class I electrical equipment per socket and connect up
equipment using a cable equipped with a PE protective conductor (green/yellow); this protective conductor is not required for
class II equipment. Adhere to the cross sections and lengths recommended in this table during installation or when using electrical
extensions.

Risks during welding operations
2.10.1
Compulsory protective measures
Before any welding operation:
1.
Ensure the work zone is safe and secure: check it is clean, ensure that the welding zone is well ventilated by fresh air, and
check that the cables are not trip hazards.
2.
Protect others: install protective screens or curtains to protect against radiation, glare and sparks and warn everyone in the
area against looking straight at the arc.
3.
Protect yourself: wear safety goggles with side shields, an approved welding helmet with tinted glass to protect the face
and eyes when welding, clothing made from resistant, flame-proof materials (leather, heavy cotton or wool) and protective
boots.

RISK OF HEARING LOSS
Suitable hearing protection must be worn at all times when the unit is running.
RISK OF POISONING OR EXPLOSION
Respect the local regulations in force concerning the handling of petroleum products. Fill up when the
unit is switched off and the engine cold. Smoking, using a naked flame, producing sparks and making
telephone calls are forbidden when filling the tank. After filling, always check that the tank's filler cap is
properly tightened. Clean any traces of fuel with a clean cloth and wait until the vapors have dispersed
before starting the unit. If the fuel is exposed to high temperatures for a period of several hours
(containers or generating set stored in a vehicle parked in the sun, for example), harmful vapors could
be released causing a risk of poisoning or of feeling unwell.
The fluids used by the units, such as oils and fuels, are dangerous products. Never inhale or ingest;
avoid prolonged or repeated contact with the skin.
RISK OF POISONING OR EXPLOSION
Follow the battery manufacturer's recommendations. Only use insulated tools. Keep away from fire or
naked flames. Always ensure adequate ventilation during charging.
