PREVENTION OF ELECTROCUTION AND FIRE
HAZARD
WHAT COULD HAPPEN
PREVENTION
Improper storage of
extension cord.
Extension cord can come
into contact with hot engine
parts resulting in damage.
Using a damaged
extension cord can result
in electrocution or death.
Remove extension cord
from the inverter
generator and store
separately away from the
inverter generator.
Operation of the inverter
generator in heavy rain,
wet, icy, or flooded
conditions.
Water is an excellent
conductor of electricity!
Water which comes in
contact with electrically
charged components can
transmit electricity to the
frame and other surfaces,
resulting in electrical shock
to anyone contacting them.
Operate the inverter
generator in a clean, dry,
well ventilated area.
Make sure hands are dry
before touching unit.
Placing the inverter
generator on or against
highly conductive surface,
such as a steel walkway or
metal roof.
Accidental leakage of
electrical current could
charge conductive surfaces
in contact with the
generator.
Place the inverter
generator on low
conductivity surface such
as a concrete slab.
ALWAYS operate inverter
generator a minimum of 2
meters from any
conductive surface.
Operation of unit when
damaged, or with guards
or panels removed.
Attempting to use the unit
when it has been damaged,
or when it is not functioning
normally could result in fire
or electrocution. Removal of
guarding could expose
electrically charged
components and result in
electrocution.
Do not operate the
inverter generator with
mechanical or electrical
problem. Have unit
repaired by an Authorized
Service Centre. Do not
operate generator with
protective guarding
removed.
HAZARD
WHAT COULD HAPPEN
PREVENTION
Filling petrol while engine
is still running.
Fuel and fuel vapors can
become ignited by coming in
contact with hot
components such as the
muffler, engine exhaust
Turn engine off and allow
it to cool before adding
fuel to the tank. Equip
area of operation with a
