Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter Protection - Mi-T-M GEN-3600-0MM0 Manual Del Usuario

SAFETY WARNING WHEN REFUELING
Gasoline is extremely flammable and its vapors can explode if ignited.
Observe all safety regulations for the safe handling of fuel. Handle fuel in
safety containers. If the container does not have a spout, use a funnel.
Do not overfill the fuel tank, leave room for the fuel to expand.
Do not refill fuel tank while the engine is running. Before refueling the
generator, turn it off and let it cool down. Gasoline spilled on hot engine
parts could ignite.
Fill the tank only on an area of bare ground. While fueling the tank, keep
heat, sparks and open flame away. Carefully clean up any spilled fuel
before starting engine.
Always fill fuel tank in an area with plenty of ventilation to avoid inhaling
dangerous fumes.
NEVER store fuel for your generator in the home. Gasoline, propane,
kerosene, and other flammable liquids should be stored outside of living
areas in properly-labeled, non-glass safety containers. Do not store them
near a fuel-burning appliance, such as a natural gas water heater in a ga-
rage. If the fuel is spilled or the container is not sealed properly, invisible
vapors from the fuel can travel along the ground and can be ignited by
the appliance's pilot light or by arcs from electric switches in the appli-
ance.

GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION

These generators are equipped with two GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupters) 120V duplex receptacles for protection against the hazards
of electrical shock from defective attachments such as, tools, cords, and
cables.
WARNING: THE GFCIS MAY NOT FUNCTION UNLESS THE
GENERATOR IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. FOLLOW THE
CORRECT PROCEDURE
LABELED "GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS"
A GFCI is a device that interrupts electricity from either the utility or gen-
erator by means of a special type of circuit breaker if a fault current flow
to the ground occurs.
WARNING: ONLY THE 120V DUPLEX RECEPTACLES ARE
PROTECTED BY THE GFCI.
A GFCI can be used only with generators that have the neutral wire
internally bonded to the frame, and the frame properly grounded to the
earth. A GFCI will not work on generators that do not have the neutral
wire bonded to the frame, or on generators which have not been properly
grounded. All Mi-T-M generators have internally bonded ground wires. A
GFCI will not work if the unit is not properly grounded.
A GFCI may be required by OSHA regulations, the National Electric Code
and/or local and federal codes when operating a generator.
For additional protections against shock hazards due to defective equip-
ment attached to the twist-lock receptacles, consider the use of a GFCI
on each of these receptacles as well.
GFCIs and GFCI protected cord sets and cables may be purchased from
local electrical supply houses.
