Study these SAFETY RULES carefully before installing, operating 
or servicing this equipment. Become familiar with this manual and 
with the unit. The generator can operate safely, efficiently and reli-
ably only if it is properly installed, operated and maintained. Many 
accidents are caused by failing to follow simple and fundamental 
rules or precautions.
The manufacturer cannot anticipate every possible circumstance 
that might involve a hazard. The warnings in this manual, and on 
tags and decals affixed to the unit, are, therefore, not all-inclusive. 
If using a procedure, work method or operating technique the 
manufacturer does not specifically recommend, ensure that it is 
safe for others. Also make sure the procedure, work method or 
operating technique that chosen does not render the generator 
unsafe.

 Despite the safe design of this generator, 
operating this equipment imprudently, 
neglecting its maintenance or being careless 
can cause 
possible injury or death. Permit only respon-
sible and capable persons to operate or 
maintain this equipment.
 
 Potentially lethal voltages are generated by 
these machines. Ensure all steps are taken to 
render the machine safe before attempting to 
work on the generator.

 Parts of the generator are rotating and/or hot 
during operation. Exercise care near running 
generators. 
GENERAL HAZARDS
For safety reasons, the manufacturer recommends that the 
• 
installation, initial start-up and maintenance of this equipment 
is carried out by an Authorized Service Dealer.
The generator engine releases DEADLY carbon monoxide gas 
• 
through its exhaust system. This dangerous gas, if breathed 
in sufficient concentrations, can cause unconsciousness or 
even death. Never operate the generator set with the vehicle 
inside any garage or other enclosed area. Shut down the 
generator and do not operate it until it has been inspected 
and repaired.
DO NOT OPERATE THE GENERATOR IF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM 
• 
IS LEAKING OR HAS BEEN DAMAGED.
SYMPTOMS OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING ARE (a) 
• 
inability to think coherently, (b) nausea, (c) vomiting, 
(d) twitching muscles, (e) throbbing temples, (f) dizzi-
ness, (g) headaches, (h) weakness, and (i) sleepiness. IF 
EXPERIENCING ANY OF THESE SYMPTOMS, MOVE INTO 
FRESH AIR IMMEDIATELY. IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST, GET 
MEDICAL HELP. 
Never sleep in the vehicle while the genset is running unless 
• 
the vehicle has a working carbon monoxide detector. The 
exhaust system must be installed in accordance with the 
genset installation manual. Make sure there is ample fresh 
air when operating the genset in a confined area.
Keep hands, feet, clothing, etc., away from drive belts, fans, 
• 
and other moving or hot parts. Never remove any drive belt or 
fan guard while the unit is operating.
Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling and ventilating air is 
• 
critical to correct generator operation and is required to expel 
toxic fumes and fuel vapors from the generator compartment. 
Without sufficient cooling airflow, the engine/generator quickly 
overheats, which causes serious damage to the generator. Do 
not alter the installation or permit even partial blockage of ven-
tilation provisions, as this can seriously affect safe operation of 
the generator.
When working on this equipment, remain alert at all times. 
• 
Never work on the equipment when physically or mentally 
fatigued.
Inspect the generator regularly, and contact the nearest 
• 
Authorized Service Dealer immediately for parts needing repair 
or replacement.
Before performing any maintenance on the generator, discon-
• 
nect its battery cables to prevent accidental start up. Disconnect 
the cable from the battery post indicated by a NEGATIVE, NEG 
or (–) first. Reconnect that cable last.
Never use the generator or any of its parts as a step. Stepping 
• 
on the unit can stress and break parts, and may result in dan-
gerous operating conditions from leaking exhaust gases, fuel 
leakage, oil leakage, etc.

 SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS – The manufacturer suggests that these rules for safe operation be 
copied and posted in potential hazard areas of the recreational vehicle. Safety should be stressed to 
all operators and potential operators of this equipment.
