ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS > EN
Always stop the motor of the generator when filling it with fuel.
Never fill the fuel tank while smoking or near a naked flame.
Make sure you don’t spill fuel on the motor and the exhaust grille of the generator during filling
with fuel.
Keep the fuel in an appropriate recipient and sheltered from any sources of fire.
Carry out filling in a safe place, and slowly open the fuel cap to release the pressure which has
built up inside the tank. Wipe up any drops of petrol that have spilled before starting the motor.
To prevent fire, move the generator at least 4 meters away from the area for filling with fuel.
Make sure that the fuel cap is tightly closed before starting.
Do not keep petrol in the tank for a long time.
While using or transporting the generator, make sure you keep the generator upright,
otherwise the fuel may escape from the carburetor or the fuel tank.
Electrical safety
Before each use ensure that the load to be connected does not exceed the power of the current
produced by the generator.
To avoid electric shock, you must follow the following instructions:
Do not touch the generator with wet hands.
Do not run the generator under rain or snow.
Do not run the generator near water.
Connect the generator to earth. Use a sufficiently thick conductor for the earth wire.
Do not operate the generator in parallel with another generator.
If using electrical extensions, make sure that they are sufficiently thick to transport the current
and that they are used correctly.
The connection of a generator used for auxiliary power to the electrical installation of a
building must be performed by a qualified electrician, and in conformity to the provisions of the
applicable laws and norms in the field of electricity. Incorrect connections will cause leakage of the
current from the generator into the lines of the public electricity company. Such leakage could
electrocute the workers of the public electricity company working on the network or other persons
in contact with the line during a power cut. Also, when the public power supply is re-established,
the generator can explode, catch fire or generate fires in the building’s electrical installation.
Before connecting electrical devices to the generator, make sure that their voltage
specifications and frequency of functioning correspond to the technical characteristics of the
generator. There may be damage if the device connected is not designed to function with a
voltage tolerance of +/- 10% or a frequency tolerance of +/- 3 % compared with those of the
generator.
Protection of the environment
You must periodically check the silencer (Before doing this, switch off the generator and let it
cool completely). A damaged silencer increases noise.
Do not throw motor oil into the drains but deposit it at a collection point set up for that purpose.
The fuel for this machine is combustible and explosive. After stopping the machine, you must
handle the remaining fuel correctly and meet local environmental requirements.
