WARNING
Exhaust gas presents the hazard of
severe personal injury or death. Do not termi-
nate exhaust gas under vehicle. Do not termi-
nate exhaust system directly under any vent,
window, or opening that can be opened and that
is not permanently sealed from the vehicle liv-
ing space. Keep all openings closed when the
generator set is running.
CAUTION
Excessive exhaust back pressure
can cause engine damage. If tailpipe deflector is
used, make sure it is large enough to prevent
back pressure.
CAUTION
Water vapor can cause engine dam-
age. Do not connect the generator set exhaust
to the vehicle exhaust system, because water
vapor from one engine can damage the other.
