■
No alterations or modifications may be made to
the power generator.
■
The manufacturer's preset speed must not be
changed. The generator or connected appliances
could be damaged.
■
RISK OF POISONING! Exhaust gases, fuels and
lubricants are toxic. Do not inhale exhaust gases.
■
FIRE RISK! Petrol and petrol vapours are highly
inflammable/explosive.
■
The power generator may not be used in unven-
tilated spaces or in highly inflammable environ-
ments. If the power generator is to be used in
well-ventilated rooms, the exhaust gases should
be led directly out into the open via an exhaust
hose.
■
Even when using an exhaust hose, toxic gases
can still be released. Due to the risk of fire, the
exhaust hose must never be aimed towards inflam-
mable substances.
■
Never operate the power generator in rooms
containing inflammable materials.
■
HOT SURFACES! Risk of burns. Do not touch the
exhaust system or the drive unit.
■
Do not touch any of the moving or hot parts.
Do not remove any protective covers.
■
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT! Use suitable hearing
protection when you are in the vicinity of the
appliance.
■
Only original parts may be used for maintenance
and accessories.
■
Repairs, installation and adjustment work may
only be carried out by authorised and qualified
personnel.
■
Protect yourself from electrical hazards.
■
Never touch the power generator with wet
hands. Use only suitably certified and labelled
extension cords (H07RN) outdoors.
■
When using extension cords, their total length
must never exceed 50 m for a 1.5-mm² cord or
100 m for a 2.5-mm² cord.
■
Never operate the power generator in rain or snow.
■
Always switch off the engine during transport
and refuelling.
■
Ensure that no fuel is spilt onto the engine or
exhaust pipe while refuelling.
■
Do not refuel or drain the tank in the vicinity of
open lights, flame or sparks. Do not smoke!
■
Set up the power generator in a safe, level location.
Turning, tipping or moving the appliance during
operation is forbidden.
■
Set up the power generator at least 1 m away
from walls or connected appliances.
■
Keep children away from the power generator.
■
Generators can be loaded up to their rated power
only under given operating conditions. If the
generator is not operated under the conditions
as described in ISO 8525 and if the engine or
generator cooling is impaired, e.g. as a result of
operation in confined spaces, the load must be
reduced.
The load must be reduced if the temperature,
altitude and/or humidity are higher than the
specified operating conditions.
