Safety Precautions and Instructions V
TP-6334 9/04
Tightening the hardware. Flying
projectiles can cause severe injury
or death. Loose hardware can cause
the hardware or pulley to release from
the generator set engine and can cause
personal injury. Retorque all
crankshaft and rotor hardware after
servicing. Do not loosen the crankshaft
hardware or rotor thrubolt when making
adjustments or servicing the generator
set. Rotate the crankshaft manually in
a clockwise direction only. Turning the
crankshaft bolt or rotor thrubolt
counterclockwise can loosen the
hardware.
Servicing the generator set when it
is operating. Exposed moving parts
can cause severe injury or death.
Keep hands, f eet, hair, clothing, and
test leads away from the belts and
pulleys when the generator set is
running. Replace guards, screens, and
covers before operating the generator
set.
Notice
NOTICE
Voltage reconnection. Affix a notice
to the generator set after reconnecting
the set to a voltage different from the
voltage on the nameplate. Order
voltage reconnection decal 246242
from an authorized service
distributor/dealer.
NOTICE
Hardware damage. The engine and
generator set may use both American
Standard and metric hardware. Use
the correct size tools to prevent
rounding of the bolt heads and nuts.
NOTICE
When replacing hardware, do not
substitute with inferior grade
hardware. Screws and nuts are
available in different hardness ratings.
To indicate hardness, American
Standard hardware uses a series of
markings, and metric hardware uses a
numeric system. Check t he markings
on the bolt heads and nuts for
identification.
NOTICE
Canadian installations only.For
standby service connect the output of
the generator set to a suitably rated
transfer switch in accordance with
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1.
NOTICE
Electrostatic discharge damage.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
damages electronic circuit boards.
Prevent electrostatic discharge
damage by wearing an approved
grounding wrist strap when handling
electronic circuit boards or integrated
circuits. An approved grounding wrist
strap provides a high resistance (about
1 megohm), not a direct short,to
ground.
NOTICE
This generator set does not comply
with United States Coast Guard
(USCG) requirements and must not
be used for marine applications. For
marine installations use only generator
sets specified for marine use. USCG
Regulation 33CFR183 requires that a
generator set must be ignition
protected when used in a
gasoline-fueled environment.
