Risk of electrocution and fire
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 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 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 fire
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.
