  • Page 19 Check the machine and its components for damage. Do not operate the machine if you find visible damage! Ask the Wacker Neuson dealer for advice at once. Check whether all of the parts belonging to the machine have been delivered and whether all loose parts and fasteners are present.
  • Page 20 The "General power requirements for starting" information only applies as a general guideline to assist you in determining the input current. In the event of questions, the nearest Wacker Neuson service station will be able to assist you. NOTE: Do not exceed the specified current limit at any plug receptacle.
  • Page 21 7 Operation Performance loss with high altitude application Generators run differently due to altitude and temperature differences. Unmodified internal combustion engines have reduced performance at high altitudes due to the lower air pressure. This means less performance and therefore a reduced power exploitation.
  • Page 22 7 Operation Ground CAUTION The mid-point (neutral) conductor of this equipment is not grounded. Do not drive the PE rod into the ground under normal operating conditions. Refer to the local regulations if the equipment is intended to power a building or similar system.
  • Page 23 7 Operation Use of extension cables A loss of power takes place when connecting electrical equipment or a tool to the generator with an extension cable — the longer the cable, the greater the loss of power. This means that less voltage is conveyed to the electrical equipment and the input current is increased or the performance is reduced.

  • Page 25 7 Operation Control panel See image below The circuit breaker protects the generator from significant overloads or short circuits. If the circuit breaker reacts, shut down the engine immediately and determine the cause by starting the engine again. Check the electrical equipment and tools connected to the generator and make sure that their input current does not exceed the performance limit of the generator or the power limitations of the plug receptacle.
  • Page 26 7 Operation Before starting DANGER Carbon monoxide. The application of a generator in buildings can LEAD TO DEATH WITHIN MINUTES. The exhaust fumes from the generator contain carbon monoxide (CO). This is an invisible odorless poison. If the exhaust fumes of the generator can be smelled, CO is being inhaled. Even if no exhaust fumes can be smelled, CO could still be being inhaled.
  • Page 27 7 Operation 7.11 Stopping See image: wc_gr001279 Switch off all electrical equipment and tools and disconnect from the generator. Let the engine run without load for 2-3 minutes to cool it down. Put the engine switch in the "OFF" position (c2). Close the fuel shut-off valve.

Comment: See the technical data for the recommended spark plug and spark plug air gap.
  • Page 32 8 Maintenance Setting the engine speed See image: wc_gr001288 Generators require a non-adjustable engine speed in order to maintain the correct voltage. The engine speed is controlled by a governor that automatically adjusts to the changing loads of the engine in order to maintain a constant RPM. There is no gas regulator.
  • Page 33 8 Maintenance Carburetor setting See image: wc_gr000106 The fuel adjusting screw (a) is provided with a limiter cap according to the environmental pollution provisions. The mixture is set at the plant in order to prevent an enrichment of the air/fuel mixture. No adjustment should be necessary. The limiter cap may not be removed, as the adjusting screw will break otherwise.
