1. Important Safety Instructions 9-2015
1.6 Electrical Shocks and Arc Flashes Can Cause
Severe Personal Injury or Death
• Only qualified service personnel certified and authorized to work on power
circuits should work on exposed energized power circuits.
• All relevant service material must be available for any electrical work performed
by certified service personnel.
• Exposure to energized power circuits with potentials of 50 VAC or 75 VDC or
higher poses a significant risk of electrical shock and electrical arc flash.
• Refer to standard NFPA 70E, or equivalent safety standards in corresponding
regions, for details of the dangers involved and for safety requirements.
1.7 Fuel and Fumes Are Flammable
Fire, explosion, and personal injury or death can result from improper practices.
• Do not fill fuel tanks while the engine is running unless the tanks are outside
the engine compartment. Fuel contact with hot engine or exhaust is a potential
fire hazard.
• Do not permit any flame, cigarette, pilot light, spark, arcing equipment, or other
ignition source near the generator set or fuel tank.
• Fuel lines must be adequately secured and free of leaks. Fuel connection at the
engine should be made with an approved flexible line. Do not use copper piping
on flexible lines as copper will become brittle if continuously vibrated or
repeatedly bent.
• Make sure all fuel supplies have a positive shutoff valve.
• Make sure the battery area has been well-ventilated prior to servicing near it.
Lead-acid batteries emit a highly explosive hydrogen gas that can be ignited by
arcing, sparking, smoking, etc.
Do Not Operate in Flammable and Explosive Environments
Flammable vapor can cause an engine to over speed and become difficult to stop,
resulting in possible fire, explosion, severe personal injury, and death. Do not
operate a generator set where a flammable vapor environment can be created,
unless the generator set is equipped with an automatic safety device to block the air
intake and stop the engine. The owners and operators of the generator set are
solely responsible for operating the generator set safely. Contact your authorized
Cummins Power Generation distributor for more information.
Spillage
Any spillage that occurs during fueling or during oil top-off or oil change must be
cleaned up before starting the generator set.
