Operating options of the generator
Earth the generator before use
Make sure that the generator is earthed by pushing a metal
rod* into the ground and connecting it with earth connection
via a cable*(fig .18, no. 20). (* = not included in scope of
delivery.)
1. Operate the device as described in these instructions only! Any other use is con-
sidered misuse and can cause hazardous situations.
2. When connecting several consumers to the generator, first connect the consumers
with highest power consumption and then with lower power consumption. When
using extension cables or mobile distribution networks, a maximum length of 60 m
must not be exceeded for a cross-sectional area of 1.5 mm2 . A length of 100 m
must not be exceeded for a cross-sectional area of 2.5 mm2 . Use flexible hard
rubber extension cables only, which corresponds to the brief design description
H07RN-F.
3. The CPG 3000 INV generator is equipped with an ECON
switch (fig. 19, no. 18). This activates economic engine
regulation so that the engine power is adapted to the
consumers and the current that they draw. ECON opera-
tion enables more efficient use of fuel.
4. Electrical devices and appliances need a large amount
of energy at the time of start-up. The following table of-
fers an overview of different device examples.
Attention!
Electrical devices and equipment, such as extension cables, sockets,
connected consumers etc., may be used only if they are not damaged.
