Start-up
■
Comply with working time regulations in force
in your country.
■
Do not leave the operational device unsuper-
vised.
■
Never operate the device or the appliances to
be connected to it with damaged protective
devices. Inspect the device for damage be-
fore every use. Have damaged parts re-
placed prior to use.
■
Inspect the device for damage and have
damaged parts repaired before restarting the
device.
■
In the following cases, switch off the engine,
wait for the device to come to a standstill and
disconnect the spark plug connector:
■
Before leaving the device
■
After malfunctions have occurred
■
If malfunctions and unusual vibrations oc-
cur in the device
■
For transport
■
Connect the spark plug connector and start
the engine:
■
After remedying of malfunctions (see
malfunction table) and testing the device
■
After cleaning the device
■
Do not eat or drink when adding petrol or en-
gine oil.
■
Do not inhale petrol vapours.
■
Never lift or carry the device with the engine
running.
■
Inspect all operating elements, safety devic-
es, nuts, bolts and studs of the device for
completeness, tightness and sound condi-
tion.
■
Do not use bare wires for connection to elec-
trical appliances. Always use compatible ca-
bles and plugs.
■
Observe the maximum permitted cable length
when using extension leads or a mobile pow-
er distribution cabinet:
■
with Ø 1.5 mm
2
: max. 60 m
■
with Ø 2.5 mm
2
: max. 100 m
4 START-UP
4.1 Establishing the equipotential bond (02)
When connecting a single electrical appliance,
safe operation is ensured by the design and func-
tion of the generator. It can be put into operation
by an electrical layman, as no protective equipo-
tential bond has to be established and no testing
is required before commissioning.
If several electrical appliances are to be connect-
ed, the generator must be connected to an equi-
potential bonding bar by means of an equipoten-
tial bonding conductor. The equipotential bonding
conductor must be an insulated copper wire of at
least 2.5 mm
2
Ø with mechanically protected
routing or at least 4 mm
2
Ø with unprotected rout-
ing. This work must be carried out by a qualified
electrician.
The generator has no internal residual current
device (RCD).
■
If only one appliance is connected, no residu-
al current device or isolating transformer is
required.
■
Each additional connected appliance requires
its own external residual current device
(30 mA).
■
Each additional connected appliance with in-
creased electrical hazard must be connected
via an isolating transformer instead of a
30 mA residual current device.
■
All appliances connected via a socket strip
must have their own residual current device
(30 mA).
Connecting the equipotential bonding
conductor
1. Loosen nut (02/1).
2. Push the stripped end of the wire under the
nut.
3. Tighten the nut to clamp the wire end.
4. Connect the other end of the wire to the equi-
potential bonding bar.
4.2 Filling with operating fluids
4.2.1 Safety when filling with petrol and oil
DANGER! Risk of poisoning. The engine
exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide that can
kill a person within a few minutes.
■
Operate the engine only outdoors, never in a
closed room.
■
Do not inhale the engine exhaust gases.
■
Switch off the engine if you feel nauseous,
dizzy or weak during use. Immediately con-
sult a doctor.
■
Store petrol and engine oil only in containers
designed for this purpose.
■
Fill and drain petrol and engine oil only out-
doors and with the engine cooled down.
