4.1 This manual is meant to serve as a quick reference for operating your diesel generator it is for
convenience and the user should read the safety section first (pages 4-11).This generator
produces carbon monoxide a poisonous, colourless and odourless gas that can cause death
or serious injury. Always handle with extreme care and in a well ventilated area.
4.2 Always remove the ignition key and disconnect the battery before carrying out any
maintenance, which includes filling machine with oil and diesel fuel.
4.3 This product comes fully assembled and carefully packaged and includes user manual and
warranty registration form.
4.4 DO NOT refill the fuel tank while the engine is running or HOT.
4.5 DO NOT smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is refueled or here the
fuel is stored.
4.6 DO NOT overfill the diesel tank and make sure the filler cap is securely closed after refueling.
4.7 Take care not to spill fuel when refueling. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is clean
and dry before starting the engine.
ADDING OIL & DIESEL TO THE ENGINE
5.1 This generator is shipped with oil, however DO NOT start the machine until the correct oil
level has been determined.
5.2 DO NOT change or add engine oil just after the engine has been running, the oil will be HOT
and will be a burn/scald hazard. You should however drain the oil whilst the engine is still
warm so the oil drains fully.
5.3 To add oil you MUST make sure that the generator is on a flat level and stable surface.
Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick, using a suitable funnel fill with oil to the top of the oil filler
thread. From empty the engine takes 1.75Lof SAE15W30 / SAE15W40 oil. Once the engine
has been filled with oil securely replace the oil filler cap/dipstick. Make sure that any spills are
properly cleaned up before starting the machine. To remove any excess oil place an oil
collection pan and undo the nut at the end of the oil drain pipe.
4. PREPARATIONS
5. OPERATION

13
N.B. The engine may contain oil from its pre delivery inspection –be careful not to overfill.
5.4 To ensure the generator maintains optimum performance and long life change the oil after the
first 20 hours, then every 100 hours use. If the incorrect engine oil is used or the engine oil is
not replaced every 100 hours as required the risk of crankshaft bearing failure, piston seizure,
piston ring sticking and accelerated wear of the cylinder liner, main bearing and failure of
other moving components increase significantly. The generator lifespan will be greatly
reduced if oil level is not checked daily and oil is not changed every 100 hours.
5.5 DO NOT add fuel or remove fuel just after the engine has been running, you MUST allow the
engine to cool fully before carrying out this task.
5.6 Only use standard specification diesel this can be RED or WHITE.
5.7 When filling the fuel tank from a drum, make sure that no dust or water is mixed in with the
fuel. This can cause serious damage to the fuel injection pump or the injector nozzle.

14
5.8 The battery negative (BLACK) cable has been disconnected prior to shipping. Once the
machine has been checked and filled with both oil and diesel you can then connect the
(BLACK) negative cable. We advise that you use an insulated spanner to do this to prevent
accidental shorting between the POSITIVE & NEGATIVE terminal of the battery.
5.9 DO NOT use the machine if you are tired, consumed alcohol, or if you are taking other drugs
or medication that can affect your vision, judgement orcoordination.
5.10 NEVER use the machine indoors or in spaces lacking properventilation.
5.11 Naked flames or sparks in the vicinity of the machine are strictly forbidden. Diesel is flammable
and carelessness in handling can result in personal injury or fire.
5.12 NEVER use a machine with a defectiveexhaust/muffler.
6.1 The machine is shipped without fuel, therefore you MUST fill the engine with fuel and
