MAINTAIN YOUR GENERATOR WITH
CARE
When not using your generator ensure the fuel cock is
‘OFF’. Never leave the fuel cock ‘ON’ as this can damage
the carburettor. Follow the instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories. Keep handles clean, dry and free from
oil and grease. Ensure that ventilation slots are kept clean
and free from dust at all times. Blocked ventilation slots can
cause overheating and damage to the motor. Ensure that the
air and fuel filters are kept clean at all times.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND
WRENCHES
Form the habit of always checking to see that any adjusting
keys or wrenches have been removed from the generator
before operating.
CLEANING YOUR GENERATOR
Always stop your generator before you commence cleaning.
Always ensure that your generator has cooled, about one
(1) hour, before cleaning and storing. When cleaning your
generator use only a damp soft cloth. NEVER use liquid or
solvents of any type. All areas can be wiped down.
EXTENSION CORDS & REELS
Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged.
Never use damaged extension cord as these may cause
injury. Always unwind any extension cords fully before
plugging into mains power supply. Protect your extension
cord or reel from sharp objects, excessive heat, damp
conditions or wet locations. Always use a ‘3’ core extension
cord or reel with this generator. Only heavy duty extension
cords intended for and marked ‘outdoor’ use, which are no
longer than 20m.
SELECT A GENERATOR WITH A
SUFFICIENT RATING
Select the right generator for the job. Do not use a generator
to do a job for which it was not designed. Do not force a
small generator to do the job of a heavy duty generator. Any
damage caused by overloading will void the warranty. Do not
use generators for purposes not intended.
PROTECT POWER LEADS FROM
DAMAGE
Always disconnect power cords from a power supply
socket by pulling the plug. Never pull on the cord. Keep the
power lead away from heat, oil, solvents and sharp edges.
If a power lead becomes damaged have it replaced by an
authorised service facility.
FIRE PRECAUTIONS
Always contact your fire authority before using the
generator on fire restricted days. It is not recommended
to use your generator when a total fire ban is in force.
Never refuel your generator while it is still running. Never
connect your generator to a commercial or domestic power
outlet. As a precaution it is recommended that an expert is
consulted on obtaining and using a suitable fire extinguisher.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS
Before using the generator it should be carefully checked
to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function.
Check for broken or missing parts and have them replaced
or repaired at an authorised service facility. Check any other
condition that may affect the operation of the generator. A
guard or any other part of the generator that is damaged
should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorised
service facility unless otherwise indicated in this instruction
manual.
Any switch that does not operate correctly must be
replaced by an authorised service facility.
DO NOT use the generator if the ‘ON / OFF’ motor switch
does not turn the generator ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’.
