CAUTION! If an overload occurs, ensure
that the power drawn does not exceed
the generator's maximum power out-
put and that no defective electrical
appliances are connected.
Switching off the engine

Before you switch off the generator, allow it to run
briefly with no electrical equipment connected so
that it can cool down.

and maintenance work on the equipment.
DANGER! Switch off the generator
immediately and contact your service
station:
• In the event of unusual vibrations or noise.
• If the engine appears to be overloaded or misfires.
Cleaning
• Keep all safety generators, air vents and the motor
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe
the generator with a clean cloth or blow it with com-
pressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the generator imme-
diately each time you have finished using it.
• Clean the generator regularly with a moist cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or
solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of the
equipment. Ensure that no water can seep into the
generator.

from sources of ignition.
