General safety instructions
•The operator must know the operating principles and structure of the generating set and the engine,
how to stop the engine in case of emergency and how to handle its control parts.
•Never allow children to use this appliance.
•Never allow people digesting these instructions to use this device. Local regulations may impose an
age restriction on the user.
•Do not use this appliance when people, especially children, or pets are nearby. Keep them out of
the work area.
•The operator or user is responsible for possible accidents or damage to other people and property.
•Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, as they can be caught by the rotating machine.
•Use safety equipment. Wear protective items such as dust masks, non-slip safety shoes, hard hats or
hearing protection.
•Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when using the generator. Do not use it
when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
•Install the generating set in a well ventilated area, keep at least 1.5 metres distance between the
generating set and the walls of the building or other equipment. Keep all flammable liquids and
gaseous materials away from the generating set.

•Do not run the generator in a closed or poorly ventilated area. The gases released by the engine
contain carbon monoxide, which is toxic and can cause unconsciousness or death.
•Run the generator set according to the power rating stated in the operating instructions. Avoid
running the generator set under overload or at excessive speed.
•The exhaust silencer of the generating set becomes extremely hot when the engine is running or
even for a while after it has stopped. Do not touch it, otherwise you may get burnt.
•Do not transport or store the generator until it has cooled down completely.
•Carry out maintenance periodically and solve any problems that occur in time. Do not run the
generator set until the fault has been rectified.
•As the generator set uses an air cooling system, it is necessary to regularly clean its components
such as the grilles, fan cover and fan to ensure cooling.
•Keep the fuel filter clean, change the engine oil periodically.
•Periodically check the installation, the connections and the tightness of the fasteners,
retighten if necessary.
•Clean the air filter components periodically, renewing the air filter as required.
•Switch off all connected electrical appliances before starting or stopping the engine of the
generating set.
•Before transporting the generator, the fuel tank must be emptied.
•Maintenance and repairs to the generator set must be carried out by a qualified technician from an
authorised service centre.
Warning: When starting your generator with the cord, beware of sudden changes in engine rotation! Risk of
injury! Never cover the generator when it is running. The circuit breaker mounted on the generator is
intended to prevent the risk of electric shock. If the circuit breaker is to be replaced by a new one, it must
correspond to the technical specifications of the generating set. Due to high mechanical stress, a flexible cable
with a strong rubber protection (according to IEC 245-4) or a similar cord should be used. If an extension cord
is used, the total length of the extension cord should not exceed 60m when the wire cross-section is 1.5mm2 ;
the length of the extension cord should not exceed 100m, when the wire cross-section is 2.5mm2.
Additional requirements for low power generators to be used by untrained persons.
•Protect children by keeping them at a safe distance from the generating set.
•Fuel is combustible and can be ignited easily. Do not refuel during operation. Do not refuel while
smoking or near open flames. Do not spill fuel.

•Parts of the engine are hot and can cause burns. Pay attention to the warnings on the generator set.
•Engine exhaust fumes are toxic. Do not operate the generator in unventilated rooms. When installed
in ventilated rooms, the requirements for fire and explosion protection must be observed.
•Before use, the generating set and its electrical equipment (including lines and plugs) should be
checked to ensure that they are not defective.
•Protection against electric shocks depends on circuit breakers specially adapted to the generator set. If
the circuit breakers need to be replaced, they should be replaced with a circuit breaker with identical
characteristics and performance.
•Due to high mechanical stress, only a strong rubber cable (according to IEC 60245-4) or equivalent
should be used.
•the user must comply with the electrical safety regulations applicable to the location where the units
are used.
generators are used
•the user must observe the requirements and precautions for replenishment according to the
protective measures in place at this facility and the applicable regulations.
•Generating sets should only be charged at their rated power under the rated ambient conditions.
•Before starting maintenance work, it must be ensured that an unintended start is not possible.
Safety instructions for filling up with fuel
•Fuel is extremely flammable and harmful.
•This generator only uses petrol, any other fuel than petrol would damage the engine.
•Do not overfill the tank to avoid overflowing. When a spill occurs, wipe it up completely
with a dry cloth before starting the engine.
•If you have swallowed fuel by mistake, inhaled fuel vapours or had fuel drops get into your
eyes, you should see a doctor immediately. If any fuel is spilled on your skin or clothing, you
will need to wash and change your clothes.
•Always stop the engine of the generating set when refuelling.

•Never fill up while smoking or near a flame.
•Be careful not to spill fuel on the engine and exhaust grille of the generator set when
refuelling.
•Keep fuel in a suitable container, clean and away from sources of ignition.
•Fill up with fuel in a safe place, open the fuel cap slowly to release the pressure that has built
up inside the tank. Wipe up any spilled fuel before starting the engine.
•To prevent fire, move the generator set at least 4 metres away from the fuel filling area.
•Check that the fuel cap is tight before starting.
•Do not keep petrol in the tank for a long time.
When using or transporting the generator set, make sure to hold the generator set
upright, otherwise fuel may leak from the carburettor or fuel tank.
Electrical safety
Check before each use that the load to be connected does not exceed the current
output of the generator set.
To avoid electric shock, the following instructions should be followed:
•Do not touch the generating set with wet hands.
•Do not run the generator set in rain or snow.
•Do not run the generator near water.
•Connect the generating set to earth. Use a sufficiently large conductor wire as a grounding
cable.
•Do not operate the generator set in parallel with another generator set.
•If extension cords are used, it must be ensured that they are large enough to carry the
current and that they are used correctly.
The connections of a generator, used as an auxiliary power supply, to
The electrical installation of a building must be carried out by a qualified electrician, and in
accordance with the provisions of all applicable laws and standards in the electrical field. Incorrect
connections will cause electrical current to flow back from the generator into the utility lines. Such
backflow can electrocute

workers of the public electricity company working on the network or other persons in contact
with the line during a power cut; furthermore, when the public electricity supply is restored, the
generator may explode, burn or generate fire in the building's electrical installation.
Before connecting electrical appliances to the generator set, it is necessary to check
whether their operating voltage and frequency specifications correspond to the technical
specifications of the generator set. Damage could occur if the connected device is not designed
to operate with a voltage tolerance of +/-10% or a frequency tolerance of +/-3% to those of the
generating set.
Environmental protection
•The exhaust silencer should be checked periodically (before doing so, switch off the generator
and let it cool down completely). A damaged muffler causes an increase in noise.
•Do not dispose of motor oil in the sewage system but deposit it in a collection point
provided for this purpose.
•The fuel for this machine is combustible and explosive. After the machine is shut down,
the additional fuel must be properly treated and local environmental requirements must
be met.
⚫To dispose of residual fluids, please proceed as follows:
▪Close the fuel tap
▪Empty the fuel from the fuel tank
▪Empty the fuel from the carburettor
