ƽ Important!
When using the equipment, a few safety precautions
must be observed to avoid injuries and damage.
Please read the complete operating instructions and
safety regulations with due care. Keep this manual in
a safe place, so that the information is available at all
times. If you give the equipment to any other person,
hand over these operating instructions and safety
regulations as well. We cannot accept any liability for
damage or accidents which arise due to a failure to
follow these instructions and the safety instructions.
Explanation of the warning signs on the machine
(Fig. 9)
1. Important. Read the operating instructions.
2. Important. Hot parts. Keep your distance.
3. Important. Switch off the engine before refueling.
4. Important. Never operate in non-ventilated rooms.
1. General safety instructions:
Ȝ No changes may be made to the generator.
Ȝ Only original parts may be used for maintenance
and accessories.
Ȝ Important: Danger of poisoning, do not inhale
emissions.
Ȝ Children are to be kept away from the generator.
Ȝ Important: Risk of burns. Do not touch the
exhaust system or drive unit.
Ȝ Wear suitable ear protection when in the vicinity
of the equipment.
Ȝ Important: Petrol and petrol fumes are highly
combustible or explosive.
Ȝ Never operate the generator in non-ventilated
rooms or in easyly inflammable adjacency. When
operating the generator in rooms with good venti-
lation, the exhaust gases must be channeled
directly outdoors through an exhaust hose.
Important: Toxic exhaust gases can escape
despite the exhaust hose. Due to the fire hazard,
never direct the exhaust hose towards
inflammable materials.
Ȝ Risk of explosion: Never operate the generator in
rooms with combustible materials.
Ȝ The speed preset by the manufacturer is not
allowed to be changed. The generator or
connected equipment may be damaged.
Ȝ Secure the generator against shifting and
toppling during transport.
Ȝ Place the generator at least 1m away from
buildings and the equipment connected to it.
Ȝ Place the generator in a secure, level position.
Do not turn, tip or change the generator's
position while it is working.
Ȝ Always switch off the engine when transporting
and refueling the generator.
Ȝ Make sure that when you refuel the generator no
fuel is spilt on the engine or exhaust pipe.
Ȝ Never operate the generator in rain or snow.
Ȝ Never touch the generator with wet hands.
Ȝ Guard against electric danger. When working
outdoors, use only extension cables that are
approved for outdoor use and which are marked
accordingly (H07RN..).
Ȝ The overall length of the extension cables used
may not exceed 50 m for 1.5 mm
2
and 100 m for
2.5 m
2
.
Ȝ No changes may be made to the settings of the
motor or generator.
Ȝ Repairs and adjustment work may only be
carried out by authorized trained personnel.
Ȝ Do not refuel or empty the tank near open lights,
fire or sparks. Do not smoke!
Ȝ Do not touch any mechanically driven or hot
parts. Do not remove the safety guards.
Ȝ Do not expose the tools to damp or dust.
Permissible ambient temperature – 10 to + 40
°C, max. altitude above sea level 1000 m,
relative humidity: 90 % (non-condensing)
Ȝ The generator is driven by a combustion engine,
which produces heat in the area of the exhaust
(on the opposite side of the sockets) and the
exhaust outlet. You should therefore keep clear
of these surfaces because of risk of skin burns.
Ȝ The values quoted in the technical data for
sound power level (LWA) and sound pressure
level (L
pA) are emission values and not
necessarily reliable workplace values. As there
is a correlation between emission and immission
levels, the values are not a reliable basis for
deciding on any additional precautions which
may be needed. Factors influencing the actual
user immission level include the properties of the
work area, other sound sources etc., the number
of machines and other processes in the vicinity,
as well as the time span in which the operator is
subjected to the noise. Also, the permitted
immission level can vary from country to country.
Nevertheless, with this information the user is
able to make a better assessment of the dangers
and risks involved.
Ȝ Never use a faulty or damaged electrical
equipment (this also applies to extension cables
and plug connections).
