NFPA.
Makesurethatallfastenersonthe enginearesecureand
accurately torqued. Keep guards in position over fans,
drivingbelts, etc.
If itisnecessaryto makeadjustmentswhile the engineis

Do not work on this equipment when mentally or
physically fatigued,or after consuming any alcohol or
drugthat makesthe operation of equipmentunsafe.
BATTERIES
Beforestartingwork on the engine, disconnectbatteries
to preventinadvertentstartingof the engine. Disconnect
negative cable first.
DONOTSMOKEwhileservicingbatteries.Leadacidbat-

be ignitedby flame,electrical arcingor by smoking.
Verifybattery polarity before connecting battery cables.
Connectnegative cable last.
PROTECT AGAINST MOVING PARTS
Do
notwear
loose
clothingin
the
vicinity
of
movingparts,
such asPTO shafts,flywheels,blowers,couplings, fans,
belts, etc.
Keepyour handsaway from movingparts.
FUEL SYSTEM
DO NOT
fill
fuel tanks while engine isrunning.
DONOTsmokeor useanopenflameinthevicinityof the
engine or
fuel
tank. Internalcombustionenginefuelsare
highlyflammable.
Fuelline must be ofsteelpiping, adequately secured, and
free from leaks.Pipingatthe engineshouldbe approved
flexibleline.Donotuse copperpipingfor flexiblelines
as
copper
will
work harden and become brittle enough to
break.
Be
sure all fuel supplies have a positiveshutoff valve.
Benzeneand lead, found in somegasoline,havebeen
identifiedbysome stateandfederalagenciesascausing
cancer or reproductivetoxicity. When checking, draining
or adding gasoline, take care not toingest, breathethe
fumes, or contact gasoline.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
Exhaust productsof any internalcombustionengine are
toxic and can causeinjury, or death
if
inhaled. When
operatingthe engine in a confined area, make sure the
ventilationsystem is operatingproperly.
DO NOT use exhaustgasesto heata compartment.
Makesurethatyour exhaustsystemisfreeof leaks.Make
sure thatexhaust manifolds are secure and are not
warpedby boltsunevenlytorqued.
EXHAUST GAS
IS
DEADLY!
Exhaustgasescontaincarbonmonoxide,apoisonousgasthat
can cause unconsciousnessand death. It is anodorlessand
colorlessgas formedduringcombustionof hydrocarbon
fuels.
Symptomsof carbonmonoxidepoisoningare:
Dizziness Vomiting
Headache
0
MuscularTwitching
Weaknessand Sleepiness ThrobbinginTemples
If
youexperienceany ofthesesymptoms,get out intofresh air
immediately, shutdown the unit and do not
use
it until it has
beeninspected.
The best protection against carbon monoxide inhalation is
proper installation andregular, frequent inspections of the
completeexhaustsystem. Ifyou notice a change
in
thesound
or appearance of exhaust system,shut the unitdown immedi-
atelyandhaveitinspectedandrepairedat once byacompetent
mechanic.
KEEP THE UNIT AND SURROUNDING
AREA
CLEAN
Makesurethatoily ragsare not

PURPOSE
This Supplement transmits the revisions to the Service Manual necessary for covering
Spec
€engines. Note
that the nameplate on a Spec
E
engine will have the statement:
“This
engine meets
1995-1998
California
emissions regulations for
ULGEengines.”
To satisfy California emissions regulations Spec
E
engines have internal engine modifications and precision-
manufactured carburetors with tamper-resistant fuel mixture jets.
It
should therefore be noted that, other than
installing the optional high-altitude jet (Figure 9-3a), fuel mixture adjustments should not
be
attempted. Nor
shouldthecarburetor be overhauled.Instead,amalfunctioningcarburetor(see
EngineTroubleshooting)
should bereplaced.
California users should note that unauthorized modifications or replacement of fuel, exhaust, air intake, or
speed control system components that affectengineemissions are prohibited by California regulations and that
the optional high-altitude main jetisnot intended for use in California. Modification, removal or replacement of
the generator set labelIsalso prohibited.
