1.3.4 Safety guidelines to prevent fire
Keep all inflammable materials (e.g.: petrol, oil, fabric etc.) out of the way when the generating set is in operation.
The motor should not be operated in areas containing explosive products. There is a risk of sparks forming where
all electrical and mechanical components are not shielded. Never cover the generating set with any materials while
Danger
it is operating or just after it has been switched off (wait for the motor cool down).
1.3.5 Safety guidelines for exhaust gases
Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, which is a highly toxic substance. This substance can cause death if it is
present in excessive concentrations in the air inhaled.
For this reason, always use the generating set in a well ventilated area, where gases will not be able to accumulate.
Danger
Good ventilation is required for your generating set to work properly. Without this, the motor would very quickly run at too high a
temperature, which could lead to accidents or damage to the equipment and to surrounding items. However, if it is necessary to
operate it inside a building, adequate ventilation must be provided, so that people and animals are not affected. It is imperative that
exhaust gases are discharged outside.
1.3.6 Filling with fuel
The fuel is highly flammable and its vapours are combustible.
Smoking, using a naked flame or producing sparks are forbidden while the fuel tank is being filled.
Filling should be carried out with the motor turned off. All traces of fuel should be wiped off with a clean cloth.
Danger
Always place the generating set on a flat, level and horizontal surface to avoid fuel spillage from the tank onto the motor. Storage and
handling of petroleum products must be carried out in accordance with the law. Close the fuel tap (if fitted) each time the tank has
been filled. Fill the tank using a funnel, taking care not to spill any fuel. Then screw the petrol cap back on to the fuel tank as soon as
filling is complete. Never top up fuel when the generating set is in operation or hot.
1.3.7 Safety guidelines against burns
Never touch the motor or the silencer while the generating set is in operation, or when it has just stopped.
Warning
Hot oil burns, avoid contact with the skin. Check that the system is no longer pressurised before carrying out any procedures. Never
start or run the motor when the oil filler cap is off as oil may splash out.
1.3.8 Safety guidelines for handling batteries
Never place the battery close to a flame or fire
Use only insulated tools
Never use sulphuric acid or acid water to top up the electrolyte level.
