In case of nausea, headaches, vision problems (e.g.
reduced field of vision), hearing problems, dizziness,
reduced concentration capacity, stop work immediately.
These symptoms can be caused by too high concentrations
of exhaust gases.
The combustion engine produces poisonous exhaust gases
as soon as it starts working. These gases contain toxic
carbon monoxide, a colourless and odourless gas as well
as other harmful materials. The combustion engine must
never be operated in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces.
The control and safety devices installed must not be
removed or inhibited.
During operation, the generator can never be lifted, pushed
or pulled.
Start-up:
Switch on the generator carefully following the operating
instructions in the instruction manual. Using the generator
according to these instructions reduces the risk of injury.
When the recoil starter returns to its original
position, the hand and arm are quickly moved
towards the combustion engine. This retraction may cause
fractures, bruises and sprains.
The devices shall be connected to the generator only after
the combustion engine is running.
The charge connected to the generator shall be in
accordance with the capacity of the generator. Overloading
the generator will damage it or shorten its service life.
The generator must not work at speeds for which it has not
been designed for. Working at speeds above those foreseen
by the manufacturer will increase the danger of injury to the
user and damage to the equipment.
Do not overlay the generator while it is running. In order to
avoid fire risks, the ventilation and exhaust outputs should
remain unobstructed.
Do not modify parts that could increase or lower the speed
set by the manufacturer.
Use at work:
Switch off the combustion engine if:
▪ Whenever you intend to physically move away from the
generator or if it is not being watched over;
▪ Before you refuel the tank. Refill only when the
combustion engine is cold;
Switch off the combustion engine and remove the spark
plug cap from the spark plug:
▪ Before tilting, lifting, loading or transporting the
generator;
▪ Before the generator is inspected, cleaned or before
repair work is carried out.
Unplug all equipment connected to the generator before
disconnecting it.
For the generator's maintenance, we present some safety
norms. However, as it is not possible to mention all possible
risks during maintenance work, only the user can decide
whether or not to carry out the task.
For maintenance and cleaning work, changing accessories
as well as transporting the generator, always wear gloves.
Before
starting
cleaning,
maintenance work:
▪ Place the generator on a firm, flat floor;
▪ Switch off the combustion engine and let it cool down;
▪
Remove the spark plug cap from the spark plug.
Keep the spark plug cap away from the spark plug,
as an unintended ignition spark can cause burns or
electric shocks. An inadvertent contact of the spark plug
with the spark plug cap may lead to an involuntary start of
the combustion engine.
Allow the generator to cool down in particular, before
performing maintenance work, in the area of the
combustion engine, exhaust manifold and muffler.
Temperatures of 80° C and higher can be reached.
Check the generator frequently, especially before storage
(e.g. before the winter period) regarding wear and damage.
Replace worn out or damaged parts immediately for safety
reasons so that the generator is always in safe operating
condition.
