with good ventilation, the exhaust gases must be
channeled directly outdoors through an exhaust
hose. Important: Toxic exhaust gases can escape
despite the exhaust hose. Due to the fire hazard,
never direct the exhaust hose towards
inflammable materials.
Risk of explosion: Never operate the generator in
rooms with combustible materials.
The speed preset by the manufacturer is not
allowed to be changed. The generator or
connected equipment may be damaged.
Secure the generator against shifting and toppling
during transport.
Place the generator at least 1m away from
buildings and the equipment connected to it.
Place the generator in a secure, level position. Do
not turn, tip or change the generator's position
while it is working.
Always switch off the engine when transporting
and refueling the generator.
Make sure that when you refuel the generator no
fuel is spilt on the engine or exhaust pipe.
Never operate the generator in rain or snow.
Never touch the generator with wet hands.
Guard against electric danger. When working
outdoors, use only extension cables that are
approved for outdoor use and which are marked
accordingly (H07RN..).
The overall length of the extension cables used
may not exceed 50 m for 1.5 mm
2.5 m 2 .
No changes may be made to the settings of the
motor or generator.
Repairs and adjustment work may only be carried
out by authorized trained personnel.
Do not refuel or empty the tank near open lights,
fire or sparks. Do not smoke!
Do not touch any mechanically driven or hot parts.
Do not remove the safety guards.
Do not expose the tools to damp or dust.
Permissible ambient temperature – 10 to + 40 °C,
max. altitude above sea level 1000 m, relative
humidity: 90 % (non-condensing)
The generator is driven by a combustion engine,
which produces heat in the area of the exhaust (on
the opposite side of the sockets) and the exhaust
outlet. You should therefore keep clear of these
surfaces because of risk of skin burns.
The values quoted in the technical data for sound
power level (LWA) and sound pressure level
(LWM) are emission values and not necessarily
reliable workplace values. As there is a
correlation between emission and immission
levels, the values are not a reliable basis for
deciding on any additional precautions which may
