BURNS
- Never touch the engine or the muffler during the operation of the generating set or
for a few minutes after it is stopped and switched off.
- Some preservative oils are flammable. Also, some are dangerous if inhaled. Make
sure you have good ventilation. Wear a protective mask during handling.
- Hot oil can cause burns. Avoid direct skin contact with hot oil. Make sure that the
system is not under pressure before any intervention. Never start with the oil and /
or fuel filler cap out of place.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
- A leaking exhaust can cause an increase in the noise level of the generator set. To
ensure its effectiveness, periodically inspect the muffler on the machine.
- Never drain or spill engine oil on the ground, but into a container provided for this
purpose. Service stations can recover your used oil.
- Try to avoid, whenever possible, the reverberation of the sound in walls or other
constructions: the volume would be amplified.
- If your generator set exhaust is not equipped with a spark arrestor and you must use
The group in wooded, overgrown areas or on uncultivated grassy areas, pay close attention
and make sure that the sparks do not start a fire. Clear a sufficiently large area where you plan
to move your generator set.
GENERAL SAFETY TIPS
-Before using the group it is necessary to know how to stop the group immediately and fully

- Never let children touch the generating set, even when standing still. Avoid use
of the generator set in the presence of animals.
- Never start the engine without an air filter or exhaust.
- Never invert the positive and negative terminals of the batteries during their assembly.
Reverse polarity can seriously wear out electrical equipment.
- Never cover the generating set with any material during operation or after
stop. Wait for it to cool down.
- Never cover the generating set with a thin layer of oil in order to protect it from
rust attack.

WARNING:
The engine must not be operated in environments where
explosive products. No electrical or mechanical components are shielded, so sparks

avoid any risk of fire as a consequence of fuel splashes. Always cover the alternator if it is
under the fuel filter.
