Alternating Current (Ac); Battery Charging - K&S BASIC KSB 21i S Owner's Manual

4. Turn the fuel valve to the "OFF" position.
5. After the generator stops, allow it to cool down and close the vent (for model KSB 21iS, KSB 31iE S).
COMMISSIONING
The first 20 hours of generator work please comply the following requirements:
1. During commissioning, do not connect the load which power exceeds 50% of the nominal (working) generator
power.
2. After commissioning, be sure to change the oil. Its better to drain it before the engine cools down after work, in
this case oil will drain faster.
IMPORTANT!
IMPORTANT!

ALTERNATING CURRENT (AC)

Be sure any electric devices are turned off before plugging them in.
- Be sure all electric devices including the lines and plug connections are in good condition before connection to the
generator.
- After starting the generator, make sure that the voltage indicator (green) turned on.
- Overload light (red) turns on in case of a short circuit in the connected device or generator overload (more than
100W).
- Oil light (yellow) turns on in case of insufficient oil level and the generator automatically stops. If the engine stops or
low oil level indicator lights when pulling the starter handle, check the level and top up if necessary.
- Power cord of the device connect to an outlet with AC power, turn on the AC fuse and turn on the device.
IMPORTANT!
1. Start the engine.
2. Turn the ECON to "ON".
3. Plug in to AC receptacle.
4. Make sure the AC pilot light is on.
5. Turn on any electric devices.
IMPORTANT!

BATTERY CHARGING

WARNING!
The generator DC rated voltage is 12V. Start the engine first, and then connect the generator to the battery for
charging. Before starting to charge the battery, make sure that the DC protector is turned on.
1. Start the engine.
2. Connect the red battery charger lead to the positive (+) battery terminal.
3. Connect the black battery charger lead to the negative (-) battery terminal.
4. Turn the ECS "OFF" to start battery charging.
Before operating the generator, connect ground wire to ground
terminal.
Please consult with a specialist before using the ground terminal.
Tip:
Make sure to ground the generator. When the electric device is
earthed, the generator must be grounded too.
Tip: The ECON must be turned OFF to increase engine speed to
rated rpm. If the generator is connected to multiple loads or
electricity consumers, please remember to connect the one with
the highest starting current first, and the one with the lowest
starting current last.
Battery is lithium, use only special charging device for lithium
battaries (not in a set). If the generator does not start with an
electric start (discharged battery), start the generator with a
manual start and let the battery recharge.
