2. If applicable, turn off and disconnect the battery charger from the AC
source before disconnecting the battery cables.

• Use caution when making adjustments when the generator set is running, hot,
or when parts are electrically live, as all situations may cause personal injury or
death.

causing cancer or reproductive toxicity. Do not ingest, inhale, or come into
contact with used oil or its vapors.
• Do not work on the generator set when mentally or physically fatigued or after
consuming alcohol or drugs.
NOTICE
Only trained and authorized personnel shall maintain or service the

The installation of the generator set shall provide enough ventilation to
ensure that gases generated by vented batteries during charging, or caused
by equipment malfunction, are removed.
