positions: the position marked "230 V" corresponds to the sup-
ply of 230 V/50 Hz power sockets, the position marked "400 V"
corresponds to the supply of 400 V/50 Hz power sockets. The
middle position indicates that the switch is in the off position.
Close the throttle by moving the priming accelerator lever to
stop at the "OFF" marker (XV).
Turn the electric start key from the "0" position to the "1" posi-
tion (XVI). If you cannot hear the starter sound, the battery may
be discharged. This can happen at the fi rst start-up or start-up
after a long period of storage of the generator. If it is not possi-
ble to use the electric start, use manual start.
Pull the starter pull cord smoothly several times until you feel
the resistance caused by the engine compression, which is
when you should pull it vigorously and fi rmly (XVII).
While holding the handle, let the starter pull cord retract itself in
a controlled manner until it is fully inside the power generator
housing. Do not release the starter pull cord handle so that it is
suddenly retracted into the housing. This can damage the starter.
As the engine is heating up, open the throttle gradually by mov-
ing the priming accelerator lever gradually towards "ON". Allow
the engine to start running smoothly every time you reposition
the priming accelerator lever. The rate at which the priming
accelerator lever should be reversed depends on the ambient
temperature in which you start the engine. The lower the ambi-
ent temperature, the slower the lever should be reversed.
The generator is equipped with a voltmeter, which allows to ap-
proximately check the voltage taken from the generator.
Connecting electrical loads to the power generator
CAUTION! Do not connect electrical loads with a power rating
higher than the rated power output of the power generator. If
more than one electrical load is connected, the total rated pow-
er of all connected loads must be lower than the rated power
output of the power generator.
CAUTION! Verify that the ratings of the electrical loads to be
connected match the ratings of the power generator.
CAUTION! The devices cannot be powered by the 230 V sock-
ets and the 400 V socket at the same time. Only the 230 V
sockets or the 400 V socket can be used at the same time.
Start the engine according to the procedure in "Start-up of the
combustion engine".
Make sure that the electrical loads to be connected are switched off .
Lift the socket cover and plug in the receiver power cable to the
generator socket.
Switch on the connected electrical load.
Caution! If more than one electrical load is connected, switch
on each next load when the previous load starts running stead-
ily (i.e. at the rated speed, temperature, etc.).
Each of the sockets has its own overload breaker. If the power
output is overloaded by an excessive power output consump-
tion, the socket of the generator is isolated from power but the
engine will keep running. Overload is indicated by the operation
of the fuse. In the case of 230 V and 12 V sockets, it happens
when the fuse is "blown", and in the case of 400 V sockets, it
happens when the fuse switches to the lower position. In such a
case, switch off all the receivers. which were indicated as over-
loaded, connected to the generator using the switch, unplug
the receiver from the generator socket, wait until the generator
circuits cool down, and press the overload breaker reset button.

If the activation of the fuse repeats, switch off all the receivers
connected to the generator using switches and then disconnect
their cables from the generator sockets. Stop the generator and
wait for it to cool down. Make sure that the total rated power of
all connected electrical loads does not exceed the rated power
output of the power generator. Disconnect the electrical loads
as required. Check if the air intake and/or the air vents are
obstructed. Check the power generator's vicinity for anything
which might obstruct the air intake / air vents.
After checking, press / adjust the fuses and then restart the
generator according to the start procedure.
CAUTION! The overload breaker may trip when switching on a
connected electrical load; most electrical power loads start with
a power consumption exceeding their ratings. If the electrical
power load is not defective, it might not be compatible with the
power generator's output.
CAUTION! If a DC socket is used with AC sockets at the same
time, the power of the receiver connected to this socket should
also be taken into account when adding up the power.
Stopping the engine
Switch off the electrical load connected to the power generator.
Unplug the electrical load power cables from the power generator.
Turn the engine switch to the O - off position.
Wait until the engine stops.
Close the fuel supply valve by rotating it to "OFF".
CAUTION! Should it be necessary to shut down the engine
immediately in the event of an emergency, move the engine
switch to the O - off position.
Operation at high altitude
The carburettor installed in the generator has been designed
for correct operation at an altitude not higher than specifi ed in
the technical data table. If you need to work at a higher altitude,
contact an authorized servicing centre to modify the carburet-
tor. Even after modifi cation of the carburettor, it is expected that
the power of the combustion engine will decrease, and conse-
quently the generator's power will decrease by 3.5 % for every
300 meters of altitude increase above the limit given in the ta-
ble. The power drop will be greater when using a generator
without a modifi ed carburettor. The decrease in power is due to
the dilution of air as sea level altitude rises.
MAINTENANCE AND OVERHAUL
During the warranty period, the user cannot disassemble the
device or replace other assemblies or components than those
listed below, as this will invalidate the warranty. Any irregulari-
ties found during the check or the operation signal the need for
repair to be done at the servicing centre.
After work has been fi nished, clean the housing, ventilation
slots, switches, additional handle grip and guards using e.g. a
jet of air (pressure not more than 0.3 MPa), or a brush or dry
cloth without the use of chemicals or cleaning liquids. Clean the
tools and holders with a clean, dry cloth.
Scheduled Inspections
Periodic inspection and maintenance of the following generator
assemblies must be carried out.
