Responsibility Of The User - Urrea GG835A Manual De Usuario Y Garantía

conditions: a) Start and run the generator
outdoors. Do not operate the generator in
a closed area, even when the doors or win-
dows are open; avoid areas where exhaust
gases can be enclosed, such as wells, gara-
ges, basements, excavations and galleries.
• These generators are designed to offer a
safe and reliable service if operated accor-
ding to the instructions. Read and unders-
tand the user's manual before operating
the generator.
• You can help prevent accidents by being
familiar with generator controls, and fo-
llowing safe operating procedures.

RESPONSIBILITY OF THE USER

• Know how to stop the generator quickly in
case of emergency.
• Understand the use of all generator con-
trols, outlet receptacles and connections.
• Make sure that anyone who operates the
generator receives proper instruction.
• Do not allow children to operate the gene-
rator without parental supervision.
HAZARDS OF CARBON MONOXIDE
• Exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon
monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause loss
of consciousness and can cause death.
• If you use the generator in an area that is
confined, or even partially enclosed area,
the air you breathe could contain a dange-
rous amount of exhaust gases.
• Never operate the generator inside a gara-
ge, house or near open windows or doors.
RISKS OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
• The generator produces enough electrical
power to cause a serious shock or electro-
cution if misused.
• The use of a generator or electrical device
in conditions of rain, snow, or near a pool
or sprinkler system, or if your hands are
wet, could result in electric shock. Keep the
generator dry.
• If the generator is stored outdoors,
without protection against the weather,
check all electrical components in the pa-
nel of control before each use. Humidity or
ice can cause a malfunction or short circuit
in electrical components that could result
in electrocution.
E N G L I S H •
• Do not connect it to an electrical system
in a building unless an isolation switch has
been installed by a qualified electrician.
• Use only an approved parallel operation
kit (optional equipment) to connect two
generators for parallel operation.
• Never connect different models and types
of generators.
FIRE OR BURN HAZARD
• The exhaust system heats up enough to ig-
nite some materials.
• Keep the generator at least 3 feet (1 me-
ter) away from buildings and other equip-
ment during operation.
• Do not enclose the generator in any struc-
ture.
• Keep flammable materials away from the
generator.
• The muffler becomes very hot during ope-
ration and remains hot for a while after
the engine has been turned off. Be careful
to not touch it.
• The silencer while it is hot. Let the engine
cool down before storing the generator
indoors.
• Gasoline is extremely flammable and ex-
plosive under some conditions. Do not
smoke or allow flames or sparks in which
the generator fills the tank or where gaso-
line is stored. Fill the tank in a well-ventila-
ted place with the engine stopped.
• Fuel vapors are highly flammable and can
ignite after the engine has started. Make
sure that fuel spills have been removed be-
fore starting the generator.
DEFINING TOTAL WATTAGE
In order to prevent overloading and posible da-
mage to your generator it is necessary to know
total wattage of the connected load.
To determine which load and or appliances your
generator will run follow these steps;
Check wattage requirements by referring to the
loads nameplate or by calculating it (multiply
amps x volts = watts).
You can get help for calculation using the Table
1 Total the watts for each item. If the nameplate
only give volts and amps, multiply volts x amps =
watts. 1 kW = 1,000 watts.
Motorized appliances or tools require more
than their rated wattage for start up.
NOTE: Allow 2 ½ to 4 times the listed wattage
for starting equipment powered by electric mo-
