8.1 Before starting
Step 1: Check that no power consumer is connected to
the generator.
Step 2: Check grounding. Proper grounding of the gene-
rator will prevent electric shock in the generator
or connected electrical equipment. Proper
grounding also prevents static electricity, which
often builds up in ungrounded equipment.
Step 3: Check the air filter: make sure it is in good condi-
tion and free of dust or dirt. Refer to the motor
manual for access to the filter.
Step 4: Put the battery into operation (if available): fill the
compartments with a solution of 30/40% sulphu-
ric acid to the maximum level and wait at least 2
hours before putting into operation.
Step 5: Check motor oil level, top up if necessary. Select
the suitable motor oil depending on the tempera-
ture.

Place the generator on a flat surface.
Clean the area around the filling opening. Re-
move the cap, pull out the dipstick and wipe it off.
Slowly pour the oil through the oil filter into the
motor until the level reaches the mark on the dip-
stick. In the meantime, check the level several
times. Never exceed the maximum filling level!
Close the filling opening tightly with the cap.
Check the oil level before each motor start!
Step 5: Fill the tank with petrol. Use always unleaded re-
gular petrol. Never use petrol containing more
than 10% ethanol.
Close tightly the filler hole with the cap. Wipe up
the spilled petrol!
NOTE!
Before you put the generator into operation for the
first time, observe the following points.
- Make sure that the generator stands on a level, ho-
rizontal and stable surface.
- Make sure that no power consumer is connected to
the generator.
- The oil has a large influence on the performance
and service life of the motor. The motor's Operation
and Maintenance Manual lists the characteristics of
the oil and the ideal oil level for this generator.
- For petrol motor versions, the cold start choke must
be switched on.
- For generators with electric ignition, turn the ignition
key to the "START" position and release it as soon
as the motor has started.
- To start generators with pull starter, slowly pull out
the starting device until you feel resistance, then
pull jerkily.
CAUTION!
Never fill tank indoors.
Never fill fuel tank when the motor is running or hot.
Do not not overfill the tank (do not fill to the top of the
filling device), fuel may leak due to motor vibrations.
Take care that no petrol drips to the ground during
refuelling.
Make sure that the fuel filler cap has been closed
correctly after refilling. If petrol has dripped on the
floor, make sure that the environment is dry before
starting the motor.
Avoid direct physical contact with the fuel and do not
inhale vapours; keep out of the reach of children.
The petrol vapours are flammable. Never light ciga-
rettes or smoke when refuelling. Avoid open fires.
CAUTION!
Do not come into contact with the acid and do not
smoke or use open fire: the vapours emitted by the
battery are highly flammable! Keep the battery acid
out of the reach of children.
ATTENTION!
Never fill the tank while the motoris running! The
generator must cool down for at least 2 minutes
before opening the filler cap.
Slowly open the fuel filler cap to equalize the pres-
sure.
Never mix oil with petrol!
Never overfill the fuel tank. Leave room for the petrol
to expand.
Regularly check the lines, tank and cap for leaks or
damage. Replace if necessary.
If the generator is operated at an altitude of more
than 1500 m above sea level, petrol with at least 85
octane must be used.
