you are taking from the generator or remove any
defective connected appliances.
Important. Defective overload cut-outs must be
replaced only by overload cut-outs of identical design
and with the same performance data. If repairs are
necessary, please contact your customer service
center.
230V~ sockets
If an overload occurs, the 230V~ sockets (Fig. 3/Item

the 400V 3~ sockets by pressing the overload switch
(Fig. 3/Item 9).
6.4 Switching off the engine
앬 Before you switch off the generator, allow it to
run briefly with no consumers so that it can "cool
down”
앬 Move the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 1/Item 10) to
position "OFF” with the key.
앬 Close the petrol cock
7. Cleaning, maintenance, storage and
ordering of spare parts
Switch off the motor and pull the spark plug boot
from the spark plug before doing any cleaning and
maintenance work on the equipment.
Important: Switch off the machine immediately
and contact your service station:
앬 In the event of unusual vibrations or noise
앬 If the engine appears to be overloaded or
misfires
7.1 Cleaning
n Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it
with compressed air at low pressure.
n We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished using it.
n Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts
of the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep
into the device.
7.2 Air filter
In this connection, please also read the service
information.
앬 Clean the air filter at regular intervals, and replace
it if necessary.
앬 Open both clips (Fig. 11/A) and remove the air
filter cover (Fig. 11/B).
앬 Remove the filter elements (Fig. 12/C)
앬 Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or petrol to
clean the elements.
앬 Clean the elements by tapping them on a flat
surface. In cases of stubborn dirt first clean with
soapy water, then rinse with clear water and air-
dry.
앬 Assemble in reverse order
7.3. Spark plug (Fig. 13-14)
Check the spark plug for dirt and grime after 20
hours of operation and if necessary clean with a
copper wire brush. Thereafter service the spark plug
after every 50 hours of operation.
앬 Open the maintenance flap (Fig. 13/E).
앬 Pull off the spark plug boot with a twist.
앬 Remove the spark plug (Fig. 14/D) with the
supplied spark plug wrench.
앬 Assemble in reverse order
7.4 Changing the oil and checking the oil level
(before using the machine)
The motor oil is best changed when the motor is at
working temperature.
앬 Only use motor oil (15W40).
앬 Place the generator on a slightly inclined surface
so that the oil drain plug is at the lower end.
앬 Open the oil filler plug.
앬 Open the oil drain plug and let the hot engine oil
drain out into a drip tray.
앬 After the old oil has drained out, close the oil
drain plug and place the generator on a level
surface again
앬 Fill in engine oil up to the top mark on the oil dip
stick (approx. 1.1 liters).
앬 Important: Do not screw the dipstick in to check
the oil level, simply insert it up to the thread.
앬 Dispose of the waste oil properly.
7.5 Automatic oil cut-out
The automatic oil cut-out responds if there is too little
oil in the engine. In this case it will not be possible to
start the engine or it will cut out automatically after a
short period of time. It cannot be started again until
the engine oil has been topped up (see point 7.4).
