Safety Information G 25

1.6 Safety Guidelines for Mobile Generators

Installing as

backup power

Special hazards exist when installing this machine as a backup power supply.

Improper connection of generator to a building’s electrical system can allow

electrical current from the generator to backfeed into utility lines. This may result in

electrocution of utility workers, fire, or explosion.

If connected to a building’s electrical system, the generator must meet the power,

voltage, and frequency requirements of the equipment in the building. Differences

in power, voltage, and frequency requirements may exist and improper connection

may lead to equipment damage, fire, and personal injury or death.

DANGER

Carbon monoxide. Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES.

Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO). This is a poison you cannot

see or smell. If you can smell the generator exhaust, you are breathing CO. But

even if you cannot smell the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.

f NEVER use a generator inside homes, garages, crawlspaces, or other partly

enclosed areas. Deadly levels of carbon monoxide can build up in these areas.

Using a fan or opening windows and doors does NOT supply enough fresh air.

f ONLY use a generator outside and far away from windows, doors, and vents.

These openings can pull in generator exhaust.

f Even when you use a generator correctly, CO may leak into the home. ALWAYS

use a battery-powered or battery-backup CO alarm in the home.

f If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the generator has been running,

move to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You could have carbon monoxide

poison.

WARNING

Electrocution hazard. Machines that generate electric power present special

hazards while the engine is running. These include the risk of electrocution or

severe electrical shock.

f Read and follow the instructions in this Operator’s Manual.

WARNING

Backfeed from the generator into the public power distribution system can cause

serious injury or death to utility workers!

f Connections to a building’s electrical system must be made by a qualified elec-

trician and comply with all applicable laws and electrical codes.

If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation; and if it finds

that a safety defect exists in a group of trailers, it may order a recall and remedy

campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved in individual problems

between you, your dealer, or Wacker Neuson.

To contact NHTSA, you may either contact the Vehicle Safety Hotline toll-free at

1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153), go to http://www.safercar.gov; or write to:

Administrator

NHTSA
