Periodically check the installation of the connections and the tightness of the fixations, re-
tightening them if necessary.
Clean the components of the air filter periodically, and replace the air filter when necessary.
Remove any electrical equipment that is plugged in before starting or stopping the generator.
Before transporting the generator, you must empty the fuel tank.
Maintenance and repair of the generator must be carried out by a qualified technician from an
authorized after-sales service center.
The generator must not be altered or modified. Any intervention must be done by an
authorized after-sales service center.
Installation and major repair work shall be carried out only by specifically trained personnel
Warning:
when you start the generator with the cord, watch out for sudden changes in the rotation of
the motor!!! Risk of wounding!!! Never cover the generator when it is running. The cut-out mounted on
the generator has the aime of reducing the risk of electric shock. If it needs to be replaced with
another cut-out, the latter must correspond to the technical specifications of the generator. Due to
important mechanical constraints, it is necessary to use a flexible sheathed cable with a strong rubber
protective layer (conforming to IEC 245-4) or a similar cable. If using an electrical extension cable, the
total length of the extension must not exceed 60m when the section of the wire is 1.5mm
2
and must
not exceed 100m when the section of the wire is 2.5mm
2
.
Additional requirements for low-power generating sets for use by laymen
Protect children by keeping them at a safe distance from the generating set.
Fuel is combustible and easily ignited. Do not refuel during operation. Do not refuel while
smoking or near naked flames. Do not spill fuel.
Some parts of the internal combustion engine are hot and may cause burns. Pay attention to
the warnings on the generating set.
Engine exhaust gases are toxic. Do not operate the generating set in unventilated rooms.
When installed in ventilated rooms, additional requirements for fire and explosion protection
shall be observed.
Before use, the generating set and its electrical equipment (including lines and plug
connections) should be checked to ensure that they are not defective.
Protection against electrical shock depends on circuit breakers specially matched to the
generating set. If the circuit breakers require replacement, they should be replaced with a
circuit breaker having identical ratings and performances characteristics.
Due to high mechanical stresses, only tough rubber-sheathed flexible cable (in accordance
with IEC 60245-4) or the equivalent should be used.
The user shall conform to regulations of electrical safety applicable to the place where the
generating sets are used.
The user must respect the requirements and precautions in the case of resupply by generating
sets of an installation, depending on existing protective measures in this installation and
applicable regulations.
Generating sets should only be loaded up to their rated power under the rated ambient
conditions.
Prior to commencing maintenance work it shall be ensured that untimely start-up is not
possible.
SECURITY MEASURES WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK
The fuel is extremely flammable and poisonous.
This generator only uses petrol (gasoline); any other kind of fuel will damage the motor.
Do not overfill the tank with petrol to avoid spilling. If you notice a spill, it must be wiped up
completely with a dry cloth before starting the motor.
