earth connection.
Connect the devices to be powered to the
power outlets (3).
Switch on the connected devices one at a
time, never simultaneously. Start the device
that uses most power � rst.
Never use � oodlights with other types of
electrical equipment.
If a device is defective, runs too slowly or
suddenly stops when connected to the
generator, switch it off immediately. Check
the connected device for defects.
