5 Once started up slowly move the choke to the open air position (right) as shown
in the figure below. The engine will begin working stably and is ready to have
equipments plugged in.
.
NOTE:
Do not leave the choke in an intermediate position, the blend would
be too rich and the engine would not work properly.
Carburetor alteration for high altitude operation
In high altitudes, the normal air-fuel blend in the carburetor would be too rich.
Performance would decrease and fuel consumption would increase. A very rich
blend would also dirty the spark plug and make start up difficult.
If the generator is always running in an altitude above 1,000 meters, get in touch
with an authorized GNG service to modify the carburetor (this service is not in the
warranty, therefore it would be quoted).
The generator's output power of 230V will vary depending on the altitude and other
elements such as humidity and temperature, see chapter on environmental
correction of this manual.
NOTE: If the carburetor has been modified to operate at great altitude, the
air-fuel blend would be too poor to work in low altitudes. Operation at low altitudes
may cause the engine to overheat and be seriously damaged. It would be
necessary to return the carburetor to its original state.
