and disconnected. It is best to always use a voltage or surge
protector with this generator.
It is NOT recommended to
connect any electronic equipment to the generator such
as computers, televisions, or stereo equipment. They
are very sensitive to the input supply fluctuations and
could be damaged if run off this generator. This warning
also includes caravans where electronic equipment is
incorporated as part of the wiring.
AC and DC overload cut out
IMPORTANT:
Exceeding the rated capacity of your
generator can result in serious damage to your generator
and connected apparatus.
1. Each receptacle has a circuit breaker to protect the
generator from over loading.
2. If the circuit breaker trips, unplug all electrical apparatus
from the generator.
3. Let the overload cut out switch cool down.
4. If it is an AC apparatus causing the overload push the AC
circuit breaker button (11). If it is a DC apparatus causing
the overload push the DC circuit breaker button (14).
Commence to start your generator accordingly.
5. When re connecting appliances, reduce the load to that
which previously overloaded the generator.

Generator maintenance
Your generator should be kept clean and dry at all times.
The generator should not be stored or operated in environments
that includes excessive moisture, dust or any corrosive vapours.
If these substances are on the generator, clean with a cloth or
soft bristle brush. Do not use a garden hose or anything with
water pressure to clean the generator. Water may enter the
cooling air slots and could possibly damage the rotor, stator and
the internal windings of the generator head.
Storage
If you are going to store your generator for more than
30 days, use the following information as a guide to
prepare the generator for storage.
Never store generator with
fuel in the tank indoors or in
enclosed, poorly ventilated
areas, where fumes can reach
an open flame, spark or pilot
light as on a furnace, water
heater, clothes dryer or other
gas appliances.
Spark plugs
1. Remove spark plug from the generator with a spark plug
spanner socket.
2. Remove carbon deposits using a wire brush.
3. Check for discoloration on the top of the spark plug. The
standard colour should be a tan colour.
4. Check the spark plug gap. The acceptable gap should be
between 0.7 – 0.8mm.
