1.4.2 Exhaust Requirements
Hot engine and exhaust system.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Do not work on the generator set until
it cools.
WARNING
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.
Figure 1-2 gives the exhaust temperature at rated load.
Mount the generator set so that the hot exhaust does not
blow on plants or other combustible materials. Maintain
the clearances shown in the dimension drawing in
Section 3.

Figure 1-2 Exhaust Flow and Temperature
The generator set r equires correct air flow for cooling
and combustion. The inlet and outlet openings in the
sound enclosure provide the cooling and combustion
air. Figure 1-3 shows the locations of the cooling air
intake and exhaust vents. Inspect the air inlet and outlet
openings inside and outside the housing to ensure that
the air flow is not blocked.
