Introduction
To enjoy your new appliance as long as possible, please
read carefully the Operating Instructions and the attached
safety instructions before putting it into operation. Further,
we recommend keeping the Operating Instructions in order
to recall the product features in the future. To follow the
continuous product development, we reserve the right to
make technical changes for any further improvement.
This document represents the original Operating
Instructions.
Supply includes
Take the appliance out of the transport box and check
whether the supply includes the following parts:
generator
chassis components (see pic. 2)
If any part is missing or damaged, please contact your
dealer.
Appliance in assembled state weighs 45 kg. Lift the
appliance off the transport package in two people if
necessary.
Appliance description
Synchronous generator with AVR (automatic voltage
regulation for stable performance). The automatic voltage
regulator brings the necessary voltage to the connected
appliances. Fittings: lack of oil protection, carrying frame,
sliding handle and chassis.
Including AVR (automatic voltage regulation for stable
performance)
The generator has been designed for the operation of
common ohm and induction appliances – e.g. fairy lights,
hand-held electric tools (drills, electric chain saws,
compressors). To connect the appliance to stationary
installations – heating, electrical network, air-
conditioning – or to supply trailers, it is necessary to
consult a professional electrician in advance.
We are not responsible for any damage caused by failing
to follow these Instructions.
Input at the time the appliance is being started
is the critical issue of induction appliances.
The input may be 3 – 5 multiple of the rated
power, which must necessarily be considered.

Appliance-specific safety instructions
Please read carefully the complete Operating Instructions
before using the appliance for the first time. Should any
doubts regarding the appliance connection or handling
arise, please contact the manufacturer (service
department).
TO ENSURE A HIGH LEVEL OF SAFETY, PLEASE
FOLLOW CAREFULLY THESE INSTRUCTIONS:
CAUTION!
For appliance connecting and grounding, a
professional electrician needs to be present to
ensure the generator is connected properly to the
house power source.
The generator needs to be placed on a solid and
level surface at all times!
Exhaust gases may be fatal; therefore the
generator must never be used in closed
spaces.
Never cover the generator.
Never touch the appliance with wet hands.
Do not work in a moist environment.
Never connect 2 generators to each other.
The attached and additional safety instructions need to be
followed when using electric tools.
Risk of injury or possible damage to
electric tools.
The appliance technical specifications must always
correspond to the generator details and safety
instructions (3-5 multiple rated output of the
connected appliance needs to be considered for the
starting power).
Never try to repair the appliance even when possessing
the necessary qualifications.
Check whether the covers and protective equipment are
not damaged and if have been installed properly. Perform
any servicing tasks and repairs before using the appliance.
Never try to change the engine speed adjustment. Contact
a specialist if there is any problem.
Keep the ventilation slots without any remains or other
deposits at all times to prevent engine damage or possible
fire.
Do not lift or carry the appliance when running.
Never incline the appliance when running.
Do not expose the appliance to rain and moisture. Keep
the appliance in a dry place.
Safety instructions for the first activation
No appliances with sensitive electronic equipment and
Hi-fi appliances, television sets and computers should
be connected as they could get damaged due to
possible voltage spikes!
Put the appliance on a level surface. Do not place it
on a metal surface.
Do not expose the appliance to intensive solar
radiation and temperatures exceeding 40 °C. Do not
store it in a moist environment.
Before using the appliance, make first sure the input
of the appliance you want to connect to the generator
is lower than the generator output.
Connect the appliance to the generator only when the
generator is running at full speed. Disconnect the
appliance first before switching the generator off.
Do not connect other power sources to the appliance.
Do not plug the appliance.
The generator must immediately be switched under
the following conditions:
engine running is jerking or irregular
power output has dropped
connected appliance is overheated
excessive vibrations of the generator
sparking
smoke or fire being present
Before connecting the generator to the appliance,
make sure there is a sufficient amount of fuel.

12
Never refuel the generator when running. After being
operated, let the generator cool down for at least 5
minutes before refuelling.
Do not touch the hot parts of the generator.
Do not store fuel near the generator.
The suppressor and air filter act as a flame catcher
when sufficient combustion is provided. Therefore,
make sure these parts are installed properly and in a
perfect technical state.
Use as designated
The generator has solely been designed to drive electric
devices with the maximum output being within the
generator output. The higher level of the starting current of
induction appliances must be considered.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable if provisions of the
generally applicable regulations and these Operating
Instructions are not adhered to.
Installation and first activation
Oil filling (see pic. 6)
The generator is always supplied without oil.
Please check the average ambient temperature
and add one of the given oil types to the
generator:
< 0° SAE 10 or 10W30; 10W40
0°-25° SAE 20 or 10W30; 10W40
25°-35° SAE 30 or 10W30; 10W40
35° > SAE 40 or 10W30; 10W40
Important: The generator is fitted with a lack of
oil protection. The appliance cannot
be started when there is a low oil
level (the oil level indicator lights up
at attempted start).
The oil level must necessarily be checked
before using the generator.
Refuelling
Never refuel the appliance when running. After
being operated, let the appliance cool down for
at least 5 minutes and then you can refuel.
Fuel: unleaded petrol.
Never smoke near the appliance or
fuel. Never refuel near sparks, flames or open
fire.
Important: Remove all cables.
Remove the lid from the filling hole.
Add carefully fuel to the filling hole.
Never fill the tank higher than the upper
side of the fuel filter.
Apply the lid to the filling hole again.
Operation
Using the generator, "Starting" (pic. 2)
Open the fuel tap
“ON“ switch
Put the choke to the starting position (see
the Air filter).
Pull slowly the starting cable until you can
feel resistance – then pull strongly to start
the engine.
After the engine has warmed up, put the
choke back to the starting position and wait
until the signal indicator lights up.
Connect the appliance.
The overload protection is activated if the output is
overloaded. The signal indicator keeps lighting.
The generator is automatically switched off in case of
short circuit.
Switching the generator off (pic. 3)
Make sure that NO appliance is connected.
Turn the ON/OFF switch to the “OFF“
position.
Turn the fuel tap to the “OFF“ position.
See the General safety instructions and Safety
instructions for the first activation.
Use the appliance only after you have carefully read
the Operating Instructions.
Follow all safety instructions specified in the
Operating Instructions.
Behave responsibly to other persons.

Product specific:
Voltage automatic control
AVR (automatická regulace napětí)
The voltage automatic control provides for the generator
voltage spikes to be within the range of values guaranteed
by the power supplying company and not to expose the
electronic instruments to any risk.
Caution: Check before use of the appliance its
usability for operation with the generator.
In electronically controlled devices have been previously
obtained inquiries by the manufacturer (stereo, computer,
TV, camcorder, electronic hand tools with stepless
regulation or chargers, for example) as a result of the
combustion engine generator generates a sine wave does
not optimal.
Never switch on a second consumer, while another is
already in operation. This leads inevitably to fluctuations,
which can destroy an electronically controlled device.
