2.4
Risks relating to exhaust gases
DANGER
For safety reasons and for correct operation of the unit, correct ventilation and complete evacuation of the exhaust gases is
essential. When running, the engine consumes oxygen and emits carbon monoxide: failure to renew the air or evacuate the exhaust
gases can result in serious material damage and cause illness or death in anyone exposed to these gases. If it is necessary to
operate it inside a building, all the exhaust gases must be evacuated outside and adequate ventilation must be provided so that any
people or animals present are not affected.
2.5
Risk of fire
DANGER
2.6
Risk of burns
IMPORTANT
When running and just after stopping, the oil, engine and the exhaust silencer are hot and may cause burns if contact is made.
2.7
Risks of Cardiac Interference
DANGER
Before any operation on the electrical generating set, seek medical advice.
2.8
Risk of electrocution
DANGER
2.8.1
Temporary or semi-temporary installation (work site, show, fairground, etc.)
A - If the unit is not equipped with an integrated differential protection device at delivery (standard version with insulated neutral on
the unit's earth terminal):
- Use a differential device calibrated to 30mA at the output of each of the unit's sockets (place each device at least 1 metre from
the unit, protecting it from weather conditions).
- If one or more mobile or portable devices are used occasionally, the unit does not need to be earthed.
B - If the unit is equipped with an integrated differential protection device at delivery (standard version with alternating neutral
connected to the unit's earth terminal - for use with TT or TN systems):
- Connect the unit to the earth: attach a 10 mm2 copper wire to the unit's earth terminal (A1) and to a galvanised steel earthing
rod set 1 metre into the ground.

RISK OF POISONING
DANGER OF DEATH
The carbon monoxide present in the exhaust gas may lead to death by inhalation if the concentration
levels in the atmosphere are too high.
Always use the unit in a well ventilated area where the gases cannot accumulate.
RISK OF FIRE
DANGER OF DEATH
Never operate the unit in areas containing flammable products (risk of sparks). Keep all flammable or
explosive materials (e.g. petrol, oil, cloth, etc.) out of the way when unit is running. Never cover the unit
with any type of material while it is in operation or just after it has been turned off: always wait until the
engine cools down (at least 30 minutes).
Before any intervention, wait for the unit to cool down (at least 30 minutes).
RISK OF ADVERSE EFFECTS: WEARERS OF A PACEMAKER
DANGER OF DEATH
The electromagnetic fields generated when the electrical generating set is running could affect
the operation of pacemakers.
Failure to observe the safety instructions could result in serious injuries or the death of those
concerned.
RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
DANGER OF DEATH
Units supply electrical current while operating; comply with the applicable legislation as well as the
installation and usage recommendations given in this manual. If you are in any doubt regarding
installation, please contact your nearest agent.
Do not connect the unit directly to other power sources (such as the mains for example); fit a source
changeover panel.
Never touch stripped cables or disconnected connectors. Never handle a unit with wet hands or feet.
Never expose the equipment to liquid splashes or rainfall, and do not place it on wet ground.
