Useful information while operating the machine.
IMPORTANT!
Be sure to read the full version of the manual before
getting started!
ELECTRICAL SAFETY 1.1
The device generates electricity. Follow safety precautions to
avoid electric shock.
ATTENTION – DANGER!
As exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon dioxide (CO2) and
carbon monoxide (CO) gases which are dangerous for life, it is
strictly forbidden to install the generator in residential buildings,
premises connected to residential buildings by a common venti-
lation system, other rooms from which exhaust gases may enter
living premises.
VORSICHT - GEFAHR!
When installing the generator, pay attention to the capacity of
electrical appliances and their starting current, which may be se-
veral times higher than the rated current. The generator cannot
run in overload conditions when starting consumers with an in-
rush current higher than the generator’s maximum output.
ATTENTION – DANGER!
konner-sohnen.com |1

The generator produces electricity that may lead to an electric shock while neglecting compliance regulations. K&S Basic
generators were initially designed as an IT system with basic protection by insulation of hazardous live parts according
to DIN VDE 0100-410. The generator housing is insulated from the current-carrying L and N conductors. The generator
must be grounded in all cases, except for an IT system with an insulated neutral wire and bonding. A grounded IT sys-
tem requires the use of an insulation monitoring device. Further details regarding the use of the generator in IT and
TN systems can be found on our website or requested from our technical support. Wires with damaged or spoiled
insulation should be replaced. You should also replace worn, damaged or rusty contacts.
The generator should be used as an IT or TN system based on the
application. Earthing and additional protective measures such as
insulation monitoring or protection against accidental contact
(residual current device) must be provided based on the applica-
tion and the system used.
IMPORTANT!
It is forbidden to connect to the generator devices which can
generate current pulses and direct energy towards the generator
(voltage stabilizers, devices with electronic brakes, on-grid and
hybrid inverters, etc.).
IMPORTANT!
The generator and power consumers form a closed system, with elements aecting each other. This system is physi-
cally dierent from the public network since it is signicantly aected by factors such as unbalanced phase load and
non-linear current consumption by power consumers that can cause damage to the generator and power consumers
connected to it.
Be careful. Do not operate the generator, if you are tired, under
the influence of drugs or alcohol. Inattention may cause a serious
injury.
ATTENTION – DANGER!
Using device for other purposes deprives the right for free
warranty.
IMPORTANT!
PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING WITH GASOLINE GENERATOR 1.2
Do not start the generator operation upon presence of electric load! Disconnect the load before you stop the engine.
Only unleaded gasoline is recommended for the generator. It is forbidden to use kerosene or other
fuel types. Before running the generator, it is necessary to dene the place and means of its emergency stop. Do not
refuel the running generator.
Fuel contaminates the land and groundwater. Do not allow the
leaking gasoline from the tank!

WORKING WITH THE DEVICE 5
OIL LEVEL INDICATOROIL LEVEL INDICATOR
When the oil level falls below the level required for operation, the oil level indicator lights up, and then the engine
stops automatically. The engine will not start until oil is added.
AC INDICATORAC INDICATOR
When the generator is running and producing electricity, the AC indicator light is on.
OVERLOAD INDICATOROVERLOAD INDICATOR
FOR MODELS KSB 30FOR MODELS KSB 30iiS, KSB 40S, KSB 40iiE S:E S: Once the generator is working in the normal mode, output voltage light is
green. In case of overload, indicator lights red. After 2 minutes working in overload mode, protection device switches
on and turns off the power generation to protect the connected electrical equipment and generator. In the event
of a short circuit, protection device immediately shuts off electricity. In both cases, indicator is blinking red, but the
engine does not stop.
Restart the engine to make the generator produce electricity again.
The overload indicator may light up within several seconds after
start-up or when connecting electrical devices requiring a high
starting current, such as a compressor. However, this is not a
malfunction.
IMPORTANT!
DC FUSE (EXCEPT FOR MODEL KSB 30DC FUSE (EXCEPT FOR MODEL KSB 30iiS)S)
The DC protector automatically switches to “OFF” when the current of the operating electrical device is higher than the
rated current. To use this equipment again, turn on the DC fuse again by pressing the “ON” button.
RESET BUTTON FOR MODEL KSB 21RESET BUTTON FOR MODEL KSB 21iiS:S: The RESET button has a built-in overload indicator. When approaching the
overload condition, the indicator starts flashing. The overload indicator lights up when the connected generator is
overloaded, the inverter control unit overheats or the AC output voltage rises.
If the overload indicator goes on, the engine will continue to operate, but the generator will no longer produce
electricity. In this case, you must perform the following steps:
1. Turn off all connected electrical appliances.
2. Reduce the total power of the connected devices until the nominal power of the generator is reached.
3. Press the RESET button once to restore socket voltage. After that the WORKING MODE indicator will flash 3 times
and the power supply will be restored.
If the DC fuse turns off, reduce the load of the connected electrical
device. If the DC protector turns off again, stop operation and
contact your nearest K&S Basic®service center.
IMPORTANT!
FUEL TANK CAP AIR VENT (FOR MODEL FUEL TANK CAP AIR VENT (FOR MODEL KSB 21KSB 21iiS)S)
The fuel cap is equipped with a vent for air supply to the fuel tank. When the engine is running, the vent must be in
the “ON” position (OPEN). This will allow fuel to enter the carburetor for engine operation. When the generator is not
in use, close the vent to the “OFF” position.
GROUND TERMINALGROUND TERMINAL
The ground terminal forms a ground line to prevent electric shock. If the electrical appliance is grounded, the
generator must also be grounded.
