2.1 General safety
!WARNING!
•Electrical devices are not toys
Keep electrical devices out of reach of children or infirm persons. Do
not allow them to use electrical devices without supervision.
•People (including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capac-
ities prevent them from using this device safely may not be allowed to
operate it without the supervision of a responsible adult.
•Only use the device as intended.
•Do not make any alterations or conversions to the device.
•Installation, maintenance and repairs of the generator may only be car-
ried out by qualified personnel who are familiar with the risks involved
when handling generators as well as the relevant regulations. Inade-
quate repairs may cause serious hazards. For repair service, please
contact the manufacturer's branch officeinyour country (addresses on
the back page).
•Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide which is a highly toxic,
odourless and colourless gas. Do not inhale any exhaust fumes. Do
not leave the generator motor running in a closed garage or in a room
without windows.
!CAUTION!
•The generator may only be used with the flap closed.
•Remove all flammable materials such as petrol, paints, solvents, etc.,
from the vicinity of the generator.
•Ensure that hot parts of the generator do not come in contact with any
flammable materials.
•Only refuel the generator when it is switched off and in a well-venti-
lated area. Petrol and liquid gas are highly flammable and can
explode.
•Do not refuel the generator when the vehicle engine is running if the
tank is in the vicinity of the generator.
•If petrol is spilled, wipe it up properly and wait until the fumes have
cleared before turning on the engine.
•Do not touch the generator and the cables with wet hands.
•Replace the fuses or thermo switch using only those with the same
technical data.

6 Intended use
The generator TEC60 (ref. no. 9102900229) and the generator TEC60LPG
(ref. no. 9102900230) are designed for use in motor homes, camper vans and vehi-
cles for commercial use.
The generator is not suitable for installation in water vessels.
The generator produces a pure sine wave voltage of 230 V/50 Hz which can be
connected to the consumer with a total continuous load of
•TEC60: 6200 W
•TEC60LPG: 6000 W
The power quality is also suitable for sensitive consumers (such as PCs).
The generator can charge a 12 V battery.
7 Technical description
The generator consists of the following main parts (fig. 1, page 3):
•Power generator with permanent magnets (1)
•Combustion engine (2)
•Connection box (3)
•Inverter (4)
•Control panel (5)
The combustion engine (2) drives the power generator connected to it (1), which in
turn generates AC voltage.
The external inverter (4) transforms this AC voltage into a stable voltage of 230 V and
50 Hz, which is available at the inverter terminal. The socket for the connection cable
to the control panel is installed in the inverter.
The terminals and the main switch are installed in the connection box (3) located
behind the door.

8.1 Basic notes on operation
!
Please note the following basic information:
•Always check the oil level before use (chapter “Checking the oil level” on
page 20).
•Even small overloads in the long-run will cause the generator to stop.
•Leave the generator running for a few minutes after use without any consumers
before stopping it.

By doing this you can prolong the service life of the generator and
optimise its output:
run the generator at a maximum of approx. 75 % of the maximum
continuous load after the run-in phase.
CAUTION! Beware of injury
Do not insert your fingers or objects into the air nozzles or the intake
grille.

The generator stops. Check the system by referring to
the troubleshooting table.
If the problem persists, contact
the manufacturer's branch office
in your country (addresses on the
back page).
OVERLOAD!
The consumers generate an
overload at the output.
The inverter switches off, there-
fore no voltage is supplied but
the engine carries on running
until it goes off.
Reduce the connected load and
start the generator again.
SHORT CIRCUIT
The consumers cause a short cir-
cuit at the output.
The inverter switches off, there-
fore no voltage is supplied but
the engine carries on running
until it goes off.
Check the connected consum-
ers then start the generator
again.
OVER TEMPERATURE
Overheating
The inverter switches off so no
voltage is supplied to cool the
generator, but the engine car-
ries on running.
Leave the engine to cool down
for a few minutes then start the
generator again.
LOW POWER ENGINE
The inverter supply voltage has
dropped.
The generator stops. Reduce the connected load and
start the generator again.

8.7 Checking the oil level
!
I
Always check the oil level before use. To do this, proceed as follows:
➤Open the generator flap.
➤Switch the generator to no function with the main switch (fig. 41, page 4).
➤Disconnect the positive terminal of the supply battery.
➤Take the dipstick (fig. 42, page 4) out of the filler neck (fig. 43, page 4).
➤Clean the dipstick (fig. 42, page 4) with a cloth.
➤Put the dipstick (fig. 42, page 4) back into the filler neck (fig. 43, page 4).
➤Take the dipstick (fig. 42, page 4) out of the filler neck.
➤Check that the oil level is between the notch (maximum filling level) and the tip of
the dipstick.
If not, top up with more oil.
➤Put the dipstick (fig. 42, page 4) back into the filler neck (fig. 43, page 4).
➤Check that the oil level is not above the maximum level.
➤Connect the generator to the positive terminal of the supply battery.
➤Switch the generator to standby with the main switch (fig. 41, page 4).
