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.
If you swallow fuel by mistake, if you inhale fuel vapors or if you get drops of fuel in your
eyes, see a doctor immediately. If a certain quantity of fuel is spilt on your skin or
clothing, wash or change your clothes.
Always stop the motor of the generator when filling it with fuel.
