Generator operation

NOTE
Only those generators must be used that have been designed for industrial
use on building sites. The operating instructions for the generator must be
observed!
The use of generators must comply with DVGW work sheet GW308, VDE 0100
Part 728, and the specifications and guidelines applying in the country of use.
INFORMATION
The rated power output required from the generator depends on the level
needed for the largest fusion fitting, the connection conditions, the ambient
conditions, the generator type, and its control characteristics. Generators from
different series exhibit highly diverse control characteristics. The suitability of
a specific generator, therefore, cannot be safeguarded even when it provides
the required rated power output according to its technical data sheet.
In cases of doubt, e.g. when acquiring new equipment, contact our service
hotline +49 (0)621 486-1533!
Use only those generators that operate with frequencies within 44-66 'Hz.
First start the generator, and let it run for half a minute. If necessary, adjust the
no-load voltage, limiting it to the voltage specified in the technical data. The
generator (mains) fuse must be at least 16 A (slow blow).
NOTE
During fusion, do not operate any other consumer from the same generator!
On finishing fusion work, first pull out the plug connecting the device to the
generator, and then switch off the generator.
