Resumen del manual
DO NOT connect the bonding conductor to any generator part that might be removed or disassembled during routine maintenance. If the grounding conductor must be replaced, use only a flexible conductor that is of No. 8 American Wire Gauge (AWG) copper wire minimum. • If the vehicle electrical circuits can be powered by any other source of electricity (such as a “dockside” power receptacle), there must be no possibility of connecting the different power sources to the vehicle circuits at the same time. The dockside (utility) power source must be positively isolated from the vehicle circuits whenever the generator is operating. Failure to isolate the vehicle circuits from the dockside power supply when the generator is running may result in damage to the generator or serious injury or death to dockside (utility) power workers due to backfeed of electrical energy. • In case of accident caused by electric shock, immediately shut down the source of electrical power. If this is not possible, attempt to free the victim from the live conductor. AVOID DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM. Use a nonconducting implement, such as a rope or board, to free the victim from the live conductor. If the victim is unconscious, apply first aid and get immediate medical help. • Never wear jewelry when working on this equipment. Jewelry can conduct electricity resulting in electric shock, or may get caught in moving components causing injury. . FIRE HAZARDS . • For fire safety, the generator must be installed and maintained properly. Installation always must comply with applicable codes, standards, laws and regulations. Adhere strictly to local, state and national electrical and building codes. Comply with regulations the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has established. Also, ensure that the generator is installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and recommendations. Following proper installation, do nothing that might alter a safe installation and render the unit in noncompliance with the aforementioned codes, standards, laws and regulations. • Keep a fire extinguisher in the vehicle at all times. Extinguishers rated “ABC” by the National Fire Protection Association are appropriate for use on the recreational vehicle generator electrical system. Keep the extinguisher properly charged and be familiar with its use. If ther are any questions pertaining to fire extinguishers, consult the local fire department. . EXPLOSION HAZARDS . • Do not smoke around the generator. Wipe up any fuel or oil spills immediately. Ensure that no combustible materials are left in the generator compartment, or on or near the generator, as FIRE or EXPLOSION may result. Keep the area surrounding the generator clean and free from debris. • Gasoline is extremely FLAMMABLE and its vapors are EXPLOSIVE. Do not permit smoking, open flame, sparks or any source of heat in the vicinity while handling gasoline. Comply with all laws governing the storage and handling of gasoline. • Fuel lines must be properly installed and fastened, and free of leaks. There must be no possibility of gasoline vapors entering the vehicle interior. • It is required that an approved, flexible, nonconductive fuel line be installed between the generator fuel connection point and rigid fuel lines. Section 1 – General Information Recreational Vehicle Generator 1.1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF THE MANUAL These Installation Instructions have been prepared especially for the purpose of familiarizing installers and owners of the applicable equipment with the product's installation requirements. Give serious consideration to all information and instructions in the manual, both for safety and for continued reliable operation of the equipment. Because of the different recreational vehicle models and the variations between the models, it would be extremely difficult, if not impractical, to provide detailed instructions for every possible installation. For that reason, instructions and illustrations in this manual are general in nature. Illustrations are not intended to serve as detailed installation blueprints. The installation should comply strictly with all applicable codes, standards and regulations pertaining to the installation and use of this product. If any portion of this manual appears to be in conflict with such codes, standards or regulations, the applicable codes, standards or regulations must take precedence over the manual. 1.2 SAFETY Before handling, installing, operating or servicing this equipment, carefully read the “Notice to Installer” and “Safety Rules” on pages 18 and 19. Comply with all safety rules to prevent death, personal injury or damage to equipment and/or property. Stress safety to all installers, operators and service technicians who work on this equipment. 1.3 STANDARDS BOOKLETS Installation, use and servicing of this equipment should comply strictly with published standards, as well as the manufacturer's recommendations. The following standard...
