Check the voltage of the battery Once a month
The battery used in the generator is a 12V battery but the normal voltage of it must be over 13V. If
voltage is lower than 12V please proceed to recharge the battery with an external battery charger.
In order not to run out of battery we recommend to perform at least one start up per week during
30 minutes. If the generator is not going to be used for longer period please desconect the battery
from the terminal on the battery. The battery include in the generator is a maintenance free type

General maintenance
Never incline your generator during the transport when there is oil in the engine. Non respect of
this premise will damage seriously the engine.
We do recomend to clean the generator after each use and before long time storage.
Make a visual control of the generator so all the screws and all the parts as during the use of the
generator and because of the vibrations of the machine some parts can be lose.
LONG TIME STORAGE
When generator is not going to be used for longer period we recommned to perform the next operations:
a) Drain the diesel on the fuel tank
b) Drain the oil in the engine
c) Pull the recoil starter until the position that feel resistance so the intake and exhaust valves will be closed.
d) In the models with electric start remove the connection from the battery electrode
e) Clean the generator from dust and dirty
When the generator must start again please proceed as explain
before in point 3 of this user manual
