7.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it with compressed air at low
pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could
attack the plastic parts of the equipment. En-
sure that no water can seep into the device.

Clean the air filter at regular intervals, and
replace it if necessary.

Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or petrol
to clean the elements.
•
Clean the elements by tapping them on a flat
surface. In cases of stubborn dirt first clean
with soapy water, then rinse with clear water
and air-dry.

hours of operation and if necessary clean with a
copper wire brush. Thereafter service the spark

7.4 Changing the oil and checking the oil le-

The motor oil is best changed when the motor is
at working temperature.
•
Place the generator on a slightly inclined sur-
face so that the oil drain plug is at the lower
end.
•
Open the oil filler plug.
•
Open the oil drain plug and let the hot engine
oil drain out into a drip tray.
•
After the old oil has drained out, close the oil
drain plug and place the generator on a level
surface again
•
Fill in engine oil up to the top mark on the oil
dip stick.
•
Important: Do not screw the dipstick in to
check the oil level, simply insert it up to the
thread.
•
Dispose of the waste oil properly.
7.5 Automatic oil cut-out
The automatic oil cut-out responds if there is too
little oil in the engine. In this case it will not be
possible to start the engine or it will cut out auto-
matically after a short period of time. It cannot be
started again until the engine oil has been topped
up (see point 7.4).
7.6 Maintenance

There are no parts inside the equipment
which require additional maintenance.
7.7 Storage

Leave the machine to cool (approx. 5 minu-
tes).
