ATTENTION
y
Tasks marked with the X
(3)
symbol must be per-
formed only by an authorised service centre for
the HERON® brand and tasks marked with X
(4)
by
a qualified inspection technician, see below. Other
tasks may be performed by the user themselves.
•
NOTE
X
(1)
Perform the first oil change after the first 5 hours of
operation because there may be fine metal dust from
the engine's bores present in the oil, which may cause
the oil sensor to short-circuit.
X
(2)
An inspection of the air filter must be performed
each time before the generator is put into operati-
on, since a clogged air filter prevents the supply of
combustion air into the engine, which leads to the
carbonisation of the engine, spark plugs and the
exhaust pipe and to lower performance, etc. Clean
the filter every 50 hours of operation according
to the described procedure, when used in a dusty
environment clean the filter every 10 hours or
more frequently depending on the dustiness of the
environment. In the event of heavy soiling or wear/
damage, replace it with a new original part from
the manufacturer (part no.: 8896430B).

These maintenance points may only be performed by
a service centre authorized for the HERON® brand. The
performance of the tasks by a different service centre
or by the user themselves will be assessed as unautho
-
rised tampering with the product, the result of which is
the voiding of the warranty (see Warranty conditions).

ATTENTION
According to current legal regulati-
ons in force for the inspection of electrical equipment,
the inspection and checks of all types of generators
may only be performed by an inspection technician
qualified for electrical equipment, who is certified to
perform these tasks, i.e. a knowledgeable person.
In the event that the generator is used in a commercial
application then it is / necessary for the operator, in
the sense of labour employment legal regulations and
on the basis of actual operating conditions and poten
-
tial risks, to draw up a plan for preventative maintenan
-
ce of the generator as a whole. Mandatory audits must
be performed even on paid rental (hired) generators.
In the event that the generator is used for personal
tasks, it is in your interest to have the electrical parts
of the generator inspected by an electrical inspector
according to the schedule specified in table 5.

Inspect connection points and hoses for leaks.
MAINTENANCE OF THE OIL COOLER
(RADIATOR)
y
Regularly check whether the oil cooling fins are clo
-
gged (fig. 14, position 3). In the event of clogging, the
oil will overheat. Keep the radiator in clean condition by
blowing it out using pressurise air from an air blow gun.
OIL CHANGE
Drain oil from a warm engine, since warm oil has
a lower viscosity (flows better) and also a short time
after the engine is turned off, to ensure that the oil
flows off the walls of the crankcase.
1. To provide air supply, screw out the fill neck plug
(fig. 4, position 4) and the oil drain bolt (fig. 15) and
allow the oil to flow out into a prepared container.
2. After draining all the oil, close the drain opening
using the bolt and tighten it firmly.
4. Fill the oil tank with new oil according to the
instructions provided above in the user's manual.
5. Screw the oil tank cap back on.
•
ATTENTION:
y
Wipe dry any spilled oil. Use protective gloves to pre
-
vent your skin coming into contact with oil. In the event
that oil does comes into contact with skin, thoroughly
wash the affected area with soap and water. Do not
throw out unusable oil together with municipal waste,
and do not pour it down the drain or on soil, rather take
it to a household waste collection facility. Transport
used oil in enclosed containers secured against impact
during transport.
CLEANING/REPLACING
THE AIR FILTER
Removal of the air filter is described in chapter IV.,
Preparing the generator for operation.
Clean the filter every 50 operating hours accor-
ding to the procedure described below, when used
in a dusty environment every 10 hours or more
frequently - depending on the dustiness of the
environment. In the event of heavy soiling or wear/
damage, replace it with a new original part from
the manufacturer (part no.: 8896430B).
y
In the event that the filter is clogged, vacuum from
both sides using a vacuum cleaner or blow it out using
pressurised air from a compressor (air blow gun). Use
enclosed safety glasses and a respirator to prevent dust
from entering into eyes and to prevent inhalation. In the
event of damage or substantial clogging, replace with
a new original one (part no.: 8896430B).
•
WARNING
y
Never use petrol or other highly flammable substances
to clean the air filter. There is a risk of a fire resulting
from possible electro-static discharge from dust.
y
Never operate the generator without the air filter.
Unfiltered combustion air will damage the carburettor
and the engine. Faults caused in this way are not cove
-
red by the free warranty repair.
