This symbol indicates a dangerous situation if the warning is not heeded. Not following this instruction could result in non-serious injury or damage. Warning 1.3.2 General advice One of the fundamental safety considerations is observation of the interval between maintenance procedures (see maintenance schedule).
1.3.6 Filling with fuel The fuel is highly flammable and its vapours are combustible. Smoking, using a naked flame or producing sparks are forbidden while the fuel tank is being filled. Filling should be carried out with the motor turned off. All traces of fuel should be wiped off with a clean cloth. Danger Always place the generating set on a flat, level and horizontal surface to avoid fuel spillage from the tank onto the motor.
3. Preparation before starting 3.1. Checking the oil level Always check the engine oil level before starting. Tasks such as topping up the oil should be carried out with the generating set on a horizontal surface. Remove cap (no. 1, Diag.B) by unscrewing it. Check the level and top it up if necessary.
4.3. Switching off When the generating set is turned off, the engine continues to give off heat. Appropriate ventilation should be provided after the generating set is turned off. To stop the generating set urgently, place the engine switch on "OFF" or "О". Warning Take the plugs out of the sockets and allow the engine to run without any charge for 1 to 2 minutes.
