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 Run the generator in respect of the power indicated in the user’s manual. Do not run the generator with an overload or at excessive speed. The silencer of the generator becomes extremely hot when the motor runs or even for a time after it has ...
- Page 5 Fuel is combustible and easily ignited. Do not refuel during operation. Do not refuel while smoking or near naked flames. Do not spill fuel. Some parts of the internal combustion engine are hot and may cause burns. Pay attention to the warnings on the generating set.
- Page 6 Keep the fuel in an appropriate recipient and sheltered from any sources of fire. Carry out filling in a safe place, and slowly open the fuel cap to release the pressure which has built up inside the tank. Wipe up any drops of petrol that have spilled before starting the motor. To prevent fire, move the generator at least 4 metres away from the area for filling with fuel.
- Page 7 There may be damage if the device connected is not designed to function with a voltage tolerance of +/- 10% or a frequency tolerance of +/- 3 % compared with those of the generator.

4. GENERATOR USE 1) Connections to a Building’s Electrical System 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 13 3) AC Applications Before connecting an appliance or power cord to the generator: • Make sure that it is in good working order. Faulty appliances or power cords can create a potential for electrical shock. • If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, becomes sluggish or stops suddenly, turn it off immediately.

Even with suitable carburetor jetting, engine horsepower will decrease approximately 3.5% for each 1000 foot (300 meter) increase in altitude. The effect of altitude on horsepower will be greater than this if no carburetor modification is made. NOTICE If a engine jetted for high altitude is used at a lower altitude, the lean air fuel mixture will reduce performance and may over-heat and seriously damage the engine. - Page 15 2) Fuel Recommendation 1. Check the fuel level gauge. 2. Refill the tank if the fuel level is low. Do not fill above the shoulder of the fuel strainer. WARNING • Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions. •...
