    1. SAFETY INSTRUCTION Warning: 1. Attention! Exhaust gases are toxic. Do not operate the generator in a room without ventilation system! 2. Children should be protected by keeping them at a safe distance from the generator set! 3. Refilling of the generating sets are not allowed during the operation! 4.
  • Page 4  The silencer of the generator becomes extremely hot when the motor runs or even for a time after it has stopped. Do not touch it as it will burn you. Do not transport or move the generator until it has cooled down. ...
  • Page 5 Before use, the generating set and its electrical equipment (including lines and plug connections)  should be checked to ensure that they are not defective. Protection against electrical shock depends on circuit breakers specially matched to the  generating set. If the circuit breakers require replacement, they should be replaced with a circuit breaker having identical ratings and performances characteristics.
  • Page 6  To prevent fire, move the generator at least 4 meters away from the area for filling with fuel. Make sure that the fuel cap is tightly closed before starting.  Do not keep petrol in the tank for a long time. ...
  • Page 7 Protection of the environment You must periodically check the silencer (Before doing this, switch off the generator and let it  cool completely). A damaged silencer increases noise. Do not throw motor oil into the drains but deposit it at a collection point set up for that purpose. ...

    4) Choke The choke is used to provide an enriched fuel mixture when starting a cold engine. It can be opened and closed by operating the choke lever or choke rod manually. Move the lever or the rod to the CLOSE position to enrich the mixture. 5) Circuit Breaker The circuit breaker will automatically switch OFF if there is a short circuit or a significant overload of the generator at the receptacle.
  • Page 13 Connections for standby power to a building's electrical system must be made by a qualified electrician. The connection must isolate the generator power from utility power, and must comply with all applicable laws and electrical codes. WARNING Improper connections to a building's electrical system, can allow electrical current from the generator to feedback into the utility lines.
  • Page 14: Pre-Operation Check

    NOTICE Substantial overloading will switch off the circuit breaker. Exceeding the time limit for maximum power operation or slightly overloading the generator may not switch the circuit breaker OFF, but will shorten the service life of the generator. Limit operation requiring maximum power to 30 minutes. For continuous operation, do not exceed the rated power.
  • Page 15 Engine oil is a major factor affecting engine performance and service life. Non-detergent and 2-stroke engine oils will damage the engine and are not recommended. Check the oil level BEFORE EACH USE with the generator on a level surface with the engine stopped.
  • Page 16 • Do not overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel in the filler neck). After refueling, make sure the tank cap is closed properly and securely.
