The generator is not to be connected up to other energy distribution systems
(e.g. public power supply) or to other energy generation systems (e.g. other gen-
erators, solar plant, etc.).
Your generator consists of an inverter alternator which is driven by an internal
combustion engine firmly screwed to it. This aggregate unit is mounted elastically
with a vibration damper producing few vibrations in a protective and sound damp-
ening housing.
The stability and quality of the generated voltage is achieved electronically by the
inverter.
The generator is only to be used outdoors within the indicated voltage, output,
and nominal rpm ranges (see type plate).
The generator is not to be used in explosion-prone environments.
The generator is not to be used in environments where there is a risk of fire.
The generator must be operated according to the specifications in the technical
documentation.
Every inappropriate use or all activities on the generator which are not described
in these instructions is forbidden misuse outside the legally defined limits of lia-
bility of the manufacturer.
3.2.2
Foreseeable misuse
Apart from the description of appropriate use, the lawmaker also requires
concrete references to the results of "reasonably foreseeable misuse". In
a case of incorrect use or inappropriate handling of the generator the man-
ufacturer's EC Declaration of Conformity, and automatically thereby also
the operating licence, are nullified. For products with a manufacturer's war-
ranty the manufacturer will reject any claims made under warranty for dam-
ages which were caused by misuse and its direct as well as indirect
consequences.
As not authorised Misuse is particularly the case when:
•
operation of the generator takes place without valid checks for
–
electrical safety
–
checking that the prescribed servicing and maintenance work has been
done
•
operation of the generator takes place without the protective equipment in-
stalled by the manufacturer
•
constructional or electrical modifications of the generator were undertaken
•
use of the generator by inadequately instructed operating personnel
Furthermore at all costs avoid the following Misuses:
•
Never refuel the generator's own tank when the engine is running. The vibra-
tions and strong exhaust streams during operation can lead to fuel spillage.
This leads to an increased risk of explosion and fire and therefore danger to
operating personnel, the environment and the device.
•
Never refuel the generator's own tank when it is hot. Overflowing fuel and
outflowing fuel vapours can ignite on hot parts of the device.
•
The generator is never to be connected up to other energy distribution sys-
tems (e.g. public power supply) or to other energy generation systems (e.g.
other generators, solar plant, etc.). To start with this is usually not permitted
by the energy supply company. In both cases this will inevitably lead to se-
vere damage and possibly also severe injury.
•
Never place the generator in explosion-prone environments. The individual
components of the generator are not designed EX-protected.
