Scheppach IGT2500 Translation Of Original Instruction Manual page 30

18. 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.
19. It is necessary reduction in power due to use in higher temperatures, altitudes and humidity as
below conditions.
Max. Working temperature: 40 °C
Max. Altitudes: 1000 m
Max. Humidity: 90 %
20. Keep the generator free of oil, dirt and other impurities.
21. Ensure the sound absorber and air filter work properly. These parts serve as flame protection in
case of misfire.
22. Before connecting electric leads, the appliance must reach its full speed. Disconnect leads be-
fore switching off the motor.
23. To prevent injury by electric shock, ensure the fuel tank is not completely empty while electric
leads are connected.
24. 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.
25. 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.
26. Stop the engine:
- whenever you leave the machine
- before refueling
27. Always close the fuel valve when the machine is not in operation.
28. Never use the choke lever to stop the engine.
Warning! This electric tool generates an electromagnetic field during operation. This field can impair
active or passive medical implants under certain conditions. In order to prevent the risk of serious or
deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with medical implants consult with their physician and
