Drain the oil with the engine off but hot. Precautions
should be taken to avoid burns, pour the oil into a suitable
container, and dispose of it.
PLEASE NOTE: Do not add oil while the engine is running!
5.
Grounding
The generator should be grounded during operation!
Before using the device for the first time, consult
a qualified electrician to establish proper grounding.
6.
Battery
To start the device with a starter, connect the battery
correctly before starting the device:
•
connect the positive terminal of the generator with
the positive terminal of the battery and the negative
terminal of the generator with the negative terminal
of the battery
PLEASE NOTE: Incorrect connection of the battery to
the generator will damage the devices.
PLEASE NOTE: Do not touch the battery poles!
7.
Starting the generator
a)
Test run
The first hours of operation of the device should be
treated as a test run. At this stage, do not overload the
device and replace the engine oil after 20 hours.
c)
Electric starter
•
insert the key and set the diesel switch to the
"OFF" position,
•
set the engine speed lever to the "RUN" position
•
set the diesel oil switch to the "START" position
(to set the silent mode, first select the "ON"
position for 1-2 seconds and only after this
operation, switch to the "START" position),
•
remove your hand from the switch lever and
allow the switch to return automatically to the
"ON position,"
•
if the engine fails to start after 10 seconds, return
to the start position, wait 15 seconds and try
again
8.
Correct operation of the power generator
•
start the device,
•
preheat the engine for about 3 minutes without load,
•
check if the low oil pressure light is off,
12
PLEASE NOTE: If the oil pressure or the engine oil level
is low, the device will automatically shut off when the
light comes on. If the oil is not topped up, the device
will shut down each time the engine is started.
•
after starting, check that the generator does not
emit any unusual sounds or vibrations and that the
exhaust colour is correct (whether or not it is black
or too white)
If you notice any irregularities after starting the
engine, immediately turn off the device, check the
condition of the air filter, and the levels of diesel
oil and engine oil. If all these elements are correct,
contact the manufacturer's service centre.
9.
Loading the generator set
a)
Loading:
•
start the device
•
increase the engine speed to the rated value (engine
speed lever turned upwards)
PLEASE NOTE: Do not start the generator when
the receiving devices are connected. When the
generator is loaded, the receivers should be turned
off. The devices connected to the generator must be
started individually. There should not be more than
two receiving devices running simultaneously. The
devices should be connected in such a way that it is
possible to relieve the load immediately in case of
incorrect operation of the device; the indications of
the voltmeter should be monitored.
NOTE: When connecting devices to the generator,
make sure all the devices are less rated than the
generator output. No generator socket should be
overloaded above the limit provided.
10.
Switching off the generator
•
disconnect the electrical load from the generator,
•
let the generator to work without load for about 3
minutes,
•
turn on the generator main switch,
•
when using the electric starter, turn the key to the
"OFF" position.
3.3. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
a)
Use only non-corrosive cleaners to clean the surface.
b)
After cleaning the device, all parts should be dried
completely before using it again.
c)
Store the unit in a dry, cool place, free from moisture
and direct exposure to sunlight.
d)
Do not spray the device with a water jet or submerge
it in water.
e)
The device must be regularly inspected to check its
technical efficiency and spot any damage.
f)
Use a soft cloth for cleaning.
g)
Do not leave the battery in the device if it will not be
used for a longer period of time.
h)
Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning.
i)
Do not use sharp and/or metal objects for cleaning
(e.g. a wire brush or a metal spatula) because they
may damage the surface material of the appliance.
j)
Do not clean the device with an acidic substance, agents
of medical purposes, thinners, fuel, oils or other chemical
substances because it may damage the device.

ENGINE OIL FILTER
Every 6 months or every 500 hours of operation, clean (or
replace if necessary) the oil filter. After changing the filter, it
is also recommended to change the oil.
FUEL FILTER
To ensure maximum output power, clean the fuel filter
every 6 months or every 500 hours of operation, and
replace it once a year or every 1000 hours of operation. In
order to clean or replace the filter:
•
drain the diesel fuel from the tank
•
loosen the screw of the fuel valve and remove the
filter from the fuel filler opening
•
wash it thoroughly with clean diesel fuel and place it
in the fuel tank.
BATTERY
It is recommended to check the electrolyte level in the
battery once a month. If the level drops to the lower mark,
distilled water should be added so that the level reaches
the upper mark. The battery should be charged once
a month, and the charge level should be checked regularly
- especially if the device is used only as a backup source
of energy.
MAINTENANCE AFTER LONG PERIODS OF STORAGE
If the generator is stored unused for a long time:
•
run the device without load for about 3 minutes,
•
turn off the device, drain the oil and fill it in with the
clean oil,
•
unscrew the rubber plug at the cylinder head and pour
2ml of engine oil into the cylinder, tighten the plug.
