OPERATION
Information on Initial Start-up
N O T I C E
Note that the machine is delivered without engine oil and fuel. Make sure that
this equipment is filled up before the machine is put into operation for the first time.
ATTENTION: The machine does not start until the engine oil has been refilled to
the upper limit.
14.1.1
Grounding
Before putting the machine into operation, have a grounding system installed by a qualified
electrician!
Exact grounding instructions for portable generators depend on the jurisdiction of the country in
which the generator is commissioned. Please observe them exactly.
14.1.2
Test Run Initial Start-up
Let the machine run idle for about 3 minutes.
Pay attention to abnormal noises.
Pay attention to the exhaust fumes (too black, too white)?
14.1.3
Notes on the first 20 operating hours
In order to optimize the life expectancy of your machine, the following points should be observed:
Do not operate the engine for the first 20 operating hours @ maximum load (this also
applies to used engines after extensive maintenance). This means lower speed and lower
maximum working load than during normal operation.
Change the engine oil after the first 20 hours of operation.
Operating Instructions
14.2.1
Integration into an existing electricity grid
This machine is designed exclusively for the operation of electrical devices whose maximum
power lies within the power specifications of the generator. A higher starting current from
inductive loads must be taken into account. The generator is designed for the operation of
conventional ohmic and inductive loads such as light chains, electric hand tools (drilling machines,
electric chain saws, compressors).
When connecting to stationary systems such as heating, house supply, air conditioning or for the
power supply of mobile homes, an electrician and the heating manufacturer must be consulted
regarding connection and grounding.
14.2.2
Devices are connected to the AC terminals
Before connecting a device on the AC socket you must control the perfect condition of the device.
When you recognize that a connected device acts unusual you must stop the generator and
disconnect the device. Control whether the device is damaged or if the generator was overloaded
by the device.
ATTENTION: A short exceed of the normed power capacity of the generator is possible but if this
happens oftener the life time of the generator will be shortened.
Please consider: Some devices, for instance cooling devices need up to 5 times more starting
current than current during the operation.
