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.

• 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.

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

openings can pull in generator exhaust.

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.

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.

starting it.

Electrical

safety

To increase electrical safety while operating this machine:

 Do not operate the generator, or tools attached to the generator, with wet

hands.

 Do not use worn electrical cords. Severe electrical shock and equipment

damage may result.

 Do not operate generator in standing water.

 Make certain the machine is well-grounded and securely fastened to a good

earthen ground per national and local regulations.

 Do not overload the generator. The total amperage of the tools and equipment

attached to the generator must not exceed the load rating of the generator.

1.3 Operator Safety while Using Internal Combustion Engines

Generator

placement

 NEVER use this generator inside a home or garage, EVEN IF doors and

windows are open. Only use OUTSIDE and far away from windows, doors, and

vents. Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Generator

exhaust contains carbon monoxide. This is a poison you cannot see or smell.

 NEVER use a generator inside an enclosed area such as a tunnel or a trench.

Refueling

safety

When refueling the engine:

 Do not smoke.

 Do not refuel a hot or running engine.

 Do not refuel the engine near an open flame.

 Refill the fuel tank in a well-ventilated area.

 Replace the fuel tank cap after refueling.

Operating

safety

 Check the fuel lines and the fuel tank for leaks and cracks before starting the

engine.

 Do not run the machine if fuel leaks are present or the fuel lines are loose.

 Do not run the engine near open flames.

 Do not start the engine if fuel has spilled or a fuel odor is present. Move the

generator away from the spill and wipe the generator dry before starting.

 Do not smoke while operating the machine.

WARNING

Internal combustion engines present special hazards during operation and fueling.

Failure to follow the warnings and safety standards could result in severe injury or

death.

f Read and follow the warning instructions in the engine owner’s manual and the

safety guidelines below.

1.4 Towing Safety

Hitch and

coupling

Before towing, follow the instructions below to ensure that the hitch and coupling

are ready for use.

 Check that the hitch and coupling on the vehicle are rated equal to, or greater

than, the trailer's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR).

 Inspect the hitch and coupling for wear or damage. DO NOT tow the trailer

using defective parts.

 Make sure the coupling is securely fastened to the vehicle.

 Connect the safety chains.

 Connect the breakaway cable safety hook to the bumper or rear of the vehicle.

Do not attach to the vehicle hitch.

Tires and

wheels

Before towing, follow the instructions below to ensure that the tires and wheels are

ready for use.

 Check the tires on the trailer for tread wear, inflation, and condition. Replace

worn tires.

 Check that the lug nuts holding the wheels are tight and that none are missing.

Brakes and

lights

Before towing, follow the instructions below to ensure that the brakes and lights are

ready for use.

 Test the surge brakes on the trailer.

1.5 Guidelines for Service Safety

Prerequisites

Before servicing this machine:

 Stop the engine.

 If the engine has an electric starter, isconnect the negative terminal on the

battery.

 Attach a “DO NOT START” sign to the machine. This will notify everyone that

the machine is being serviced and will reduce the chance of someone

inadvertently trying to start the machine.

Ground

connection

 The generator must be connected to a good earthen ground for proper

operating safety!

 Ground the generator in accordance with the standards defined in national,

state, and local regulations.

Personal

injury

avoidance

 Let the engine and muffler cool before transporting or servicing the machine.

 Do not service the machine if your clothing or skin is wet.

 Do not allow untrained personnel to service this machine. Only trained

electrical technicians should be allowed to service the electrical components of

this machine.

Service safety

 Do not modify the machine without the express written approval of the

manufacturer.

 Do not allow water to accumulate around the base of the machine. If water is

present, move the machine and allow the machine to dry before servicing.

electrical components.

..

Replacing

parts and

labels

 Replace worn or damaged components.

 Use only spare parts recommended by Wacker Neuson.

 Keep the fuel lines in serviceable condition. Leaking fuel and flames are

extremely explosive!

 Replace all missing and hard-to-read labels. Labels provide important

operating instructions and warn of dangers and hazards.
