4.4. GrounDInG the Generator

• 

Before using the generator, the grounding lug on 

the panel must be connected to the earth.

• 

To ground the generator to the earth, connect the 

grounding lug of the generator to the grounding 

spike  driven  into  the  earth  or  to  the  conductor 

which has been already grounded to the earth.

• 

If  such  grounding  conductor  or  grounding 

electrode is unavailable, connect the grounding 

lug of the generator to the grounding terminal of 

the using electric tool or appliance.

Earth Terminal

4.5. eLectrIc starter (optIonaL)

The battery is delivered dry but loaded. You have to fill it with acid before using.

1.  Just before filling the battery, take out the plastic cap and connect the hose to the mechanical out 

connection.

2.  Remove the tank cap and fill fully with electrolyte until the maximum level written on the battery.

3.  Let the battery rest for a while (roughly 1/2 HRS) before running by a load. If the electrolyte level 

dropped, fill again until the maximum level.

4.  If necessary, reload the battery. The loading can be made with unscrewing the filling caps.

5.  Remove the plugs and clean the electrolyte that fell down on the battery. The battery is ready for use.
