Check before using
Caution:
If you are using the generator for the first time,
the tank must be filled by at least 2/3 of its
capacity.
Before using, slowly press the fuel pump (17)
6x to pump the petrol into the carburettor.
This check before using must be done every
time that you use the generator.
1 – Check the fuel level
Ensure there is sufficient fuel in the tank.
If there is too little, add unleaded petrol;
ensure that the filter is always in the filling
opening of the tank. See the figure.
The fuel tank capacity is specified in the
Technical data table.
Warning:
Do not add fuel to an engine that is operating or
hot!
Close the fuel cock before you add fuel!
Dust, dirt, water or other materials/objects may
not contaminate the fuel.
Do not fill the tank beyond the filter; if the fuel
temperature increases later, it could expand.
Close the tank cap carefully after filling!
Remove any spilled fuel carefully before starting
the engine.
Keep the generator and the fuel away from
naked flames!
2 – Check the oil level
Ensure that the oil is at the maximum level in the
oil tank. If necessary, add oil.
Remove the side cover.
Remove the cap with the dipstick and check the
oil level.
If the oil level is under the minimum level, oil
must be added to the maximum level. Do not
tighten the cap when you check the oil level.
Change the oil if it is dirty.
