3. PRE-OPERATION CHECK
Please perform the following steps before using the machine to ensure the proper functioning of the unit.
Otherwise, it may damage the equipment and shorten its life.
CAUTION: The engine and muffler will get very hot once the generator starts. Avoid coming into
contact with both parts before they cool down, during inspection and repair operations.
Check oil level
NOTE: Perform this operation with the generator on (not running).
If the pilot light comes on when pulling the starter cord,
the oil level is insufficient and the generator will not start.
CAUTION: Note that starting the engine with too much or too little oil can permanently damage the
generator. The capacity of the oil tank is 0.35L.
ATTENTION: The generator comes from the factory without oil.
To check the oil level, first unscrew the
cover piece so that the oil reservoir
cap can be unscrewed.
Add oil until the level is at point A, as
shown in the figure.
CAUTION: Use the recommended oil according to the temperature range of your area:
Temperature
-25ºC ~30ºC
-15ºC ~40ºC
Check fuel level
ATTENTION: If the fuel level is insufficient the generator will not start.
CAUTION: Do not add fuel up to the mouth of the tank, leave room for expansion. Failure to do so
could result in a fire or explosion.
CAUTION: Do not add gasoline and oil mixture used for 2-stroke engines. Do not use old fuel. Do not
allow dirt to enter the tank, such as dust, water, etc. Drain the fuel tank and carburetor if you are not going
to use it for a long period of time, as the fuel degrades and you may find it difficult to start the engine
later.
1. Fuel is flammable and toxic. Please read the information on handling and hazards carefully.
