b). Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these instructions to use the machine. Local
regulations can restrict the age of the operator.
c). Never work while people, especially children, or pets are nearby.
d). keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to
other people or their property.
e). Major repair work shall be carried out only by specifically trained personnel.
2). Preparation
a). WARNING-Petrol is highly flammable:
- store fuel in containers specifically designed for this purpose;
- refuel outdoors only and do not smoke while refueling;
- add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the cap of fuel tank or add petrol while the
engine is running or when the engine is hot;
- if petrol is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine but move the machine away from the
area of spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition until petrol vapours have dissipated;
- replace all fuel tank and container caps securely.
b). Replace faulty silencers;
c). Before using, always visually inspect to see that the tools are not worn or damaged. Replace
worn or damaged elements and bolts in sets to preserve balance.
d). Do not smoke near the generator.
e). Do not wear loose clothing, jewellery, or similar items that could be caught in the starter or
other moving parts.
f). Never put any items into the ventilation openings. This applies even when the generator is
switched off. Non-observance may lead to injury, or damage to the generator.
g). Generating sets may only be loaded up to their rated power under the rated ambient
condition. If generating set use is under conditions which do not conform to the reference
conditions as stipulated in ISO 8528-8 and if cooling of the engine or alternator is impaired ,e.g.
as a result of operation in restricted areas, a reduction in power is necessary.
h). It is necessary reduction in power due to use in higher temperatures, altitudes and humidity
as below conditions.
1) Max Working Temperature: 40°C
2). Max altitudes: 1000 m
3) Max humidity: 95%
3). Operation
a). Do not operate the engine in a confined space where dangerous carbon monoxide fumes
can collect
b). Keep the generator free of oil, dirt and other impurities.
c). Please always place the appliance on even and stable surfaces.
d). Never operate the appliance inside buildings or in an environment without proper ventilation,
like collieries, caves, excavations and bilges. Pay attention to air flow and temperature.
e). Ensure that extension cords, power cords and all electric components are in proper
condition. Never operate electric tools with damaged or defective cords.
f). Do not operate or store the appliance in wet or humid surroundings or on highly conductive
surfaces such as metal coatings or steel constructions.
g). Ensure the sound absorber and air filter work properly. These parts serve as flame protection
in case of misfire.
h). Before connecting electric leads the appliance must reach its full speed. Disconnect leads
before switching off the motor.
i). To prevent injury by electric shock, ensure the fuel tank is not completely empty while electric
leads are connected.
j). The load must not exceed the power marked on the rating label of the generator.
Overloading may result in damage to, or a shorter life of the appliance.
k). To avoid possible burn injuries, do not touch the exhaust system or other parts of the motor or
generator that become hot during operation. Pay attention to the warnings on the generating
set.
l). Do not connect the appliance to household outlets. The generating set must not be
connected to other power sources, such as the power company supply mains. In special cases
where stand-by connection to existing electrical systems is intended, it shall only be performed
by a qualified electrician who has to consider the differences between operating equipment
using the public electrical supply network and operating the generating set.
