6. Generator usage
First uses: In order to improve the engine operation and extend the life of the
machine, we recommend a "break-in period" of 20 hours without forcing the
generator, with charges that do not exceed 60% of the equipment's maximum
output.
WARNING: Be sure to connect the ground connection to an independent
ground rod. Grounding protects the user in case of accidental discharge. Failure to
make this connection exposes the user to the risk of serious injury or death in the
event of a shock. If you have doubts, ask your electrician.
WARNING: Never connect the 230 voltage output of the equipment to a
building or house (not even during a power failure). The return of the mains would
clash with the generator's voltage and cause serious damage to the equipment or
even a fire.
WARNING: Do not connect in parallel with other generator, both will be
damaged and will be a fire hazard.
NOTE: Do not connect an extension to the exhaust.
NOTE: If a cable extension is needed, make sure you use a good quality
rubber extension and appropriate section, consult to your electrician or
professional shops.
NOTE: Devices that use electric motors such as compressors, water pumps,
saws, grinder, etc. require up to 3 times more power for startup. For example, a
500 W water pump would need a 1500 W generator for startup. Verify that charges
upon connection do not exceed the maximum power of the group according to this
indication.
