WARNING!

 

Ensure any Health & Safety, Government, or local authority regulations are adhered to when using this equipment. 

  Familiarise yourself with the application and limitations, as well as the potential hazards, of the generator.

 

Maintain the generator in good condition (use an authorised service agent). Replace or repair damaged parts. Use genuine parts only.   

 

Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.

  This generator is designed and manufactured for specific applications. Do not attempt to modify the unit or use it for any application for   

 

which it is not designed. If you have any questions regarding the application of the unit please contact your local Sealey dealer.

 

WARNING! DO NOT exceed the Wattage/Amperage capacity of the generator.

 Add rated wattage of all devices intended for connection  

 

at any one time. The total must not exceed rated wattage of generator (see specification). In most cases the rated wattage of an electrical  

 

device can be found on the nameplate. If the nameplate only gives voltage and amperage, multiply the two to give rated wattage (Volts x   

 

Amps = Watts)

 

WARNING! Generator exhaust gases contain deadly carbon monoxide which must not be inhaled. Always allow sufficient 

 

ventilation.

 

WARNING! If you decide to use an Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (also referred to as an RCD or Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter),

 

it is imperative that the neutral end of the power winding is connected to the frame of the generator set and that the earth lug on  

 

the frame is connected with a low impedance connector to the local earth via an earth spike or local protective earth conductor.   

 

This connection should only be attempted by a qualified electrician, after first having consulted your local dealer.

 

DANGER! This generator is designed for outdoor use only. To use the generator inside any building or enclosure, including the 

 

generator compartment of a caravan, may result in fire or an explosion. No user-performed modifications, including venting of 

 

the exhaust and/or cooling ventilation, will eliminate the danger.

 

DANGER! If this unit is used for back-up power in the event of a commercial power failure, the following steps must be taken.

 

Before connecting the generator to the electrical system, open the main circuit breaker to isolate the generator and system from  

 

the commercial electric supply. Failure to do this may result in damage to the generator and may result in serious injury or

 

fatality, due to a back-feed of electrical energy.

 

DANGER! The generator produces a very powerful voltage that can cause a severe electrical shock. Avoid contact with bare 

 

wires, terminals etc. Never allow any unqualified person to operate or service the generator.

 

WARNING! Petrol is highly flammable and petrol vapour is explosive. Do not permit smoking, naked flames, sparks or heat in the

   vicinity while handling petrol. Avoid spilling petrol onto a hot engine. Comply with all laws regulating storage and handling of   
 

fuels.

 

WARNING! NEVER refuel when the engine is running or when the engine is hot. 

 

Operate the generator only on level surfaces (maximum allowable tilt is 10º) and where it will not be exposed to excessive moisture, dirt   

 

or corrosive vapours or be in the proximity of combustible material (flammable liquids, solids or gases). 

 

Remove ill fitting clothing, ties, watches, rings and other loose jewellery and contain long hair. Wear appropriate protective clothing.

 

Keep non-essential persons away from the working area.

 

WARNING! Never start or stop the generator while electrical loads are connected and switched on. Start the engine, let it 

 

stabilise, then connect the electrical load. To stop engine, disconnect the electrical load and let engine stabilise before switching  

 

off.

 

WARNING! Do not use worn, bare, frayed or otherwise damaged electrical cables with the generator. To do so may result in 

 

electric shock.

 

DO NOT

 use the generator for any purpose other than that for which 

 

it is designed. 

 

DO NOT

 operate the generator if any parts are missing or damaged, 

 

as this may cause failure and/or personal injury.

 

DO NOT

 over-fill fuel tank. Always leave room for fuel to expand.

 

DO NOT

 operate in the rain.

 

DANGER! Do not tamper with the engine governed speed setting. 

 

Higher operating speeds are dangerous and increase the risk  

 

of personal injury and/or equipment damage. The generator 

 

supplies the correct rated frequencies and voltages only when 

 

running at the correct governed speed. Incorrect frequency 

 

and/or voltage can damage some connected electrical loads.   

 

 

Operating at excessively low speeds may result in shortened

 

engine life. Over-speeding will invalidate the warranty.

 

DO NOT

 operate the generator when you are tired or under the 

 

influence of alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.

 

DO NOT

 store generator with fuel in tank where petrol vapours might 

 

reach an open flame or spark.
