Risk of electrocution and re
Hazard What could happen How to prevent it
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
generator and store separately
away from generator.
Operation of generator in rain,
wet, icy, or ooded 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 generator in a clean,
dry, well ventilated area. Make
sure hands are dry before
touching unit.
Placing 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 generator on low
conductivity surface such as a
concrete slab.
ALWAYS operate generator a
minimum of 2 meters from any
conductive surface.
Use of worn, damaged or
ungrounded extension cords.
Contact with worn or damaged
extension cords could result in
electrocution.
Use of ungrounded cordsets
could prevent operation of
circuit breakers and result in
electrical shock.
Inspect extension cords before
use and replace with new cord if
required.
Always use a cordset having a
grounding wire with an
appropriate grounding plug. DO
NOT use an ungrounded plug.
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reorelectrocution.
Removal of guarding could
expose electrically charged
components and result in
electrocution.
Do not operate generator with
mechanical or electrical problem.
Have unit repaired by an
Authorised Service Centre.
Do not operate generator with
protective guarding removed.
