K&S BASIC KS 1200i Owner'S Manual Download Page 5

It is recommended to ground the generator before operating it for the first time. Before starting the device, remember 

that the total power of the connected power consumers should not exceed the nominal power of the generator.

OIL LEVEL INDICATOR

OIL LEVEL INDICATOR

When the oil level falls below the level required for operation, the oil level indicator lights up, and then the engine 

stops automatically. The engine will not start until oil is added.

TERMS OF USE 

OF INVERTER GENERATOR

4

GENERATOR OPERATION

5

To avoid electric shock due to poor-quality electrical appliances or 

improper use of electricity, the generator must be earthed using a 

high-quality insulated conductor.

IMPORTANT!

Useful tip: If the engine stalls or does not start, turn the engine 

switch to the “ON” position, and then pull the manual starter. 

If the oil level indicator flickers for several seconds, add oil and 

restart the engine.

IMPORTANT!

Make sure that the control panel, the blinds and the underside of 

the inverter are well cooled and protected against the ingress of 

small solids, dirt, and water. Improper operation of the cooler can 

cause damage to the motor, inverter or alternator.

IMPORTANT!

ENGINE SWITCH

ENGINE SWITCH
To start the engine, turn the engine switch to the “ON” position. To turn off the engine, turn the engine switch to the 

“OFF” position.

AC INDICATOR

AC INDICATOR
When the generator is running and producing electricity, the AC indicator light is on.

The  overload  indicator  may  light  up  within  several  seconds 

after start-up or when connecting electrical devices requiring a 

high starting current, such as a compressor or voltage indicator. 

However, this is not a malfunction.

IMPORTANT!

OVERLOAD INDICATOR

OVERLOAD INDICATOR
The overload indicator lights up when the connected generator is overloaded, the inverter control unit overheats or 

the AC output voltage rises.
If the overload indicator goes on, the engine will continue to operate, but the generator will no longer produce 

electricity. In this case, you must perform the following steps:
1. Turn off all connected electrical appliances and stop the engine.

2. Reduce the total power of the connected devices until the nominal power of the generator is reached.

3. Check if the vent grid is clogged. Remove excess dirt or debris, if any.

4. After checking, start the engine.
