This device is intended for the connection of indi-
vidual electrical appliances in non-commercial
applications. The connecting cables should be
kept as short as possible. No appliances may be
connected when starting the generator.
This appliance is intended solely for use in non-
commercial applications. Any other use as well
as unauthorised conversions or modifications are
regarded as contrary to the intended use and will
result in voiding of the warranty as well as loss of

by the user or third parties.
It is essential to consult a qualified electrician be-
fore connecting the generator to stationary equip-
ment such as heaters, mobile homes or caravans.
The generator is operated with unleaded petrol.

to buildings.
