5. Before putting the machine into
operation
5.1 Assembly
앬 Assemble the foot, wheels and push bar as
shown in Figures 6-9.
앬 Assemble all parts before filling in fuel and oil in
order to prevent the fluids from leaking out.
앬 To mount the wheels, first slide the axle through
the mountings on the bottom of the generator
and fit the wheels as shown on Figure 7. Make
sure that the sides of the wheels with the more
protruding wheel hubs are facing towards the
generator, as the wheels will otherwise drag
against the frame.
5.2 Electrical safety:
앬 Electric supply cables and connected equipment
must be in perfect condition.
앬 The generator is to be operated only with
equipment whose voltage specifications conform
with the generator's output voltage.
앬 Never connect the generator to the power supply
(socket-outlet).
앬 Keep the cable length to the consumer as short
as possible.
5.3 Environmental protection
앬 Dispose of soiled maintenance material and
operating materials at the appropriate collection
point.
앬 Recycle packaging material, metal and plastics.
5.4 Connecting to earth
The housing is allowed to be connected to earth in
order to discharge static electricity. To do this,
connect one end of a cable to the earth connection
on the generator (Fig. 4) and the other end to an
external earth (for example an earthing rod).
6. Operation
Important! You must fill up with engine oil (approx.
1.1 l) and fuel before you can start the engine.
앬 Check the fuel level and top it up if necessary
앬 Make sure that the generator has sufficient
ventilation
앬 Make sure that the ignition cable is secured to
the spark plug
앬 Inspect the immediate vicinity of the generator
앬 Disconnect any electrical equipment which may
already be connected to the generator
6.1 Starting the engine
앬 Open the petrol cock (13) by turning it down
앬 Move the ON/OFF switch (10) to position "ON”
with the key.
앬 Move the choke lever (11) to position IØI.
앬 Start the engine with the reversing starter (12) by
pulling the handle forcefully. If the engine does
not start, pull the handle again.
앬 Push the choke lever (11) back again after the
engine has started.
Important!
When starting with the reserve starter, the motor may
recoil suddenly as it starts up, resulting in hand
injuries. Wear protective gloves when starting the
equipment.
6.2 Connecting consumers to the generator
앬 Connect the equipment you want to use to the
230 V~sockets (3)
Important: These sockets may be loaded
continuously (S1) with 3500W and temporarily (S2)
for a maximum of 2 minutes with 3800W.
앬 The generator is suitable for 230 V~ AC
appliances.
앬 Do not connect the generator to the domestic
power network as this may result in damage to
the generator itself or to other electrical
appliances in your home.
Note: Some electrical appliances (power jigsaws,
drills, etc.) may have a higher level of power
consumption when used in difficult conditions.
6.3 Switching off the engine
앬 Before you switch off the generator, allow it to
run briefly with no consumers so that it can "cool
down”
앬 Move the ON/OFF switch (10) to position "OFF”
with the key.
앬 Close the petrol cock
6.4 Overload cut-out 2 x 230 V socket-outlets
Important! The generator is fitted with an
overload cut-out.
This shuts down the sockets (3). You can restart the
sockets (3) by pressing the overload cut-out (5).
Important! If this happens, reduce the electric
power you are taking from the generator or
remove any defective connected appliances.
