Short circuits. Hazardous voltage/current will cause severe injury or death. Short circuits can cause bodily injury and/or
equipment damage. Do not contact electrical connections with tools or jewelry while making adjustments or repairs. Remove all
jewelry before servicing the equipment.
Electrical backfeed to the utility. Hazardous backfeed voltage can cause severe injury or death. Connect the generator
set to the building/marina electrical system only through an approved device and after the building/marina main switch is turned
off. Backfeed connections can cause severe injury or death to utility personnel working on power lines and/or personnel near
the work area. Some states and localities prohibit unauthorized connection to the utility electrical system. Install a ship-to-shore
transfer switch to prevent interconnection of the generator set power and shore power.
Testing live electrical circuits. Hazardous voltage or current will cause severe injury or death. Have trained and qualified
personnel take diagnostic measurements of live circuits. Use adequately rated test equipment with electrically insulated probes
and follow the instructions of the test equipment manufacturer when performing voltage tests. Observe the following precautions
when performing voltage tests: (1) Remove all jewelry. (2) Stand on a dry, approved electrically insulated mat. (3) Do not touch
the enclosure or components inside the enclosure. (4) Be prepared for the system to operate automatically. (600 volts and under)
Hot Parts
Hot coolant and steam.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Before removing the pressure cap, stop the engine and allow it to cool. Then loosen the
pressure cap to relieve pressure.
Hot engine and exhaust system.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Do not work on the generator set until it cools.
Servicing the exhaust system. Hot parts can cause severe injury or death. Do not touch hot engine parts. The engine and
exhaust system components become extremely hot during operation.
Notice
NOTICE
Fuse replacement. Replace fuses with fuses of the same ampere rating and type (for example: 3AB or 314, ceramic). Do not
substitute clear glass-type fuses for ceramic fuses. Refer to the wiring diagram when the ampere rating is unknown or
questionable.
NOTICE
Saltwater damage. Saltwater quickly deteriorates metals. Wipe up saltwater on and around the generator set and remove salt
deposits from metal surfaces.
