4. Using the generator set
4.1. Starting procedure
Ensure that the "emergency stop" push button (no 1, diag. B) is not engaged.
ELECTRIC STARTER
Turn the starter key (no.9, diag.B) to the "ON" position.
Note: The generating set will only start if no fault is found. (No LEDs on).
Note: If the LED for a temperature fault (no.12, diag.B) stays on, the generator set switches to "fault" mode (starting inhibited).
Press the"START" button (no. 10, diag. B).
The preheating pictogram (no 11, diag. B) will light up for approximately 5 seconds, then the generating set will start. If the
generating set does not start, the starting sequence is reinitiated automatically.
3 starting sequences will be initiated. If the generating set does not start after the 3
come on. Locate the cause of the fault.
EMERGENCY STARTING
If the electric starter fails, an emergency manual starting procedure is possible, as described below:
Turn the starter key to the "ON" position.
Open the engine cover by undoing the clamps either side and position the support stay to keep the cover open.
Hold starting handle (no. 8, diag A) correctly and pull it slowly until some resistance is felt, then let it return gradually.
Push the decompression lever (no.1, diag. E) then let it return to its initial position.
Pull the cord quickly and firmly (pull it towards the rear and use both hands if necessary). Allow the handle to return slowly by
hand. If the engine does not start, repeat the operation until the engine starts.
Remove the support stay and replace it in its housing, then close the engine cover and lock the clamps.
4.2. Operation
When the running speed of the generating set has stabilised (approximately 3 minutes):
Check that circuit breaker (15) is engaged.
Connect the plug(s) to the generating set socket(s).
4.3. Switching off
When the generating set is turned off, the engine continues to give out heat, even though it is not running.
Appropriate ventilation should be provided after the generating set is turned off.
To stop the generating set in an emergency, press the "emergency stop" button.
Warning
Disconnect the plugs and allow the motor to run with no load for 1 to 2 minutes.
Turn the start key to the "OFF" position and the generating set will stop.
5. Safety features (if fitted, see specifications table)
5.1. Oil cut-out
This mechanism is designed to prevent any damage to the motor resulting from lack of oil in the motor sump. It automatically cuts out
the motor. If the motor stops and will not restart, check the motor oil level before looking for any other cause of the problem.
5.2. Circuit breaker
The electrical circuit of the set is protected by several magnetothermal, differential or thermal cut-out switches. Any overload and/or
short circuits cause the supply of electrical energy to be cut.
5.3. High temperature cut-out
This cut-out automatically stops the generating set if the temperature inside the cover becomes too high.
