2 INSTALLATION
Installation should be performed only by expert
personnel authorised by the manufacturer.
During installation, ensure that the power source
is disconnected from the mains.
The multiple connection of power sources (series
or parallel) is prohibited.
2.1 Lifting, transport & unloading
- The equipment is supplied with an extendible belt which can be
used to move it in the hand or on the shoulder (Genesis 60).
- The equipment is provided with a handle for hand transporta-
tion (Genesis 90).
- The equipment is not equipped with specific lifting elements.
Use a fork lift truck paying attention during operations in
order to prevent the generator from tipping over.
Do not underestimate the weight of the equip-
ment: see technical specifications.
Do not move or position the suspended load
above persons or things.
Do not drop or apply undue pressure on the
equipment.
2.2 Positioning of the equipment
Keep to the following rules:
- Provide easy access to the equipment controls and connec-
tions.
- Do not position the equipment in very small spaces.
- Do not place the equipment on surfaces with inclination
exceeding 10° from to the horizontal plane.
- Position the equipment in a dry, clean and suitably ventilated
place.
- Protect the equipment against pouring rain and sun.
2.3 Connection
The equipment is provided with a power supply cable for con-
nection to the mains.
The system can be powered by:
- three-phase 400V
CAUTION: to prevent injury to persons or damage
to the equipment, the selected mains voltage and
fuses must be checked BEFORE connecting the
machine to the mains. Also check that the cable is
connected to a socket provided with earth contact.

Operation of the equipment is guaranteed for volt-
age tolerances up to ±15% with respect to the
rated value.
In order to protect users, the equipment must be
correctly earthed. The power supply voltage is pro-
vided with an earth lead (yellow - green), which
must be connected to a plug provided with earth
contact.
The electrical connections must be made by
skilled technicians with the specific professional
and technical qualifications and in compliance
with the regulations in force in the country where
the equipment is installed.
The power source supply cable is provided with a yellow/
green wire that must ALWAYS be earthed. This yellow/green
wire shall NEVER be used with other voltage conductors.
Verify the existence of the earthing in the equipment used
and the good condition of the sockets.
Install only certified plugs according to the safety regula-
tions.
2.4 Installation
Connection for PLASMA cutting
- Push the mechafin fitting (1) into the socket (2).
- Release the rotation by inserting the hook (3) into the side
hole of the socket.
- Push the hook and rotate the mechafin fitting ring nut clock-
wise until the connector locks.
