CHECK ENGINE OIL. Operating without oil will cause severe engine
damage and invalidate the warranty.
To start ensure ignition 'on', fuel valve 'on' and choke 'on' .Then either pull
starter cord (manual start) or turn key (electric start). For electric start do not
turn the engine on for more that 5 seconds. If it fails to start release the switch
and wait 15 seconds before re-trying. Switch off choke when engine has
started.
Check output voltage is 240V on the voltmeter. If not adjust engine speed. If
the speed setting is correct and the voltage is low then the generator is
overloaded and load must be reduced.
If more than one appliance is connected apply load progressively with
greatest load first.
4. GENERATOR OPERATION
WARNING
Always start generator before applying load by switching the
circuit breaker and stop the generator after disconnecting
load. Starting and stopping under load will damage the
generator and powered accessories.
3. ELECTRICAL CONECTIONS

!
output must only be used briefly or generator damage will occur.
DC output to be used for charging automotive and solar 12V batteries only.
Ensure correct polarity when connecting cables, i.e. +ve to +ve and -ve to -
ve generator to battery terminals.
Ensure the generator is properly earthed. Consult a qualified electrician if in
doubt.
Ensure the total load does not exceed the generator rating. Maximum power
WARNING
If the generator is to be connected for standby power use
ensure a qualified electrician is employed. The generator must
be isolated from the utility power when connected or serious
damage will result to the generator and house power circuits.
2. CONTROLS
All generators are fitted with the following:-
2 no 3 pin AC outlets, +ve and -ve DC connections. DG950 with one
outlet
Engine on/off switch.
Magnetic circuit breaker electric cutout.
Voltmeter (Not DG950)
