on the generator (Fig. 2/Item 8) and the other end to
an external earth (for example an earthing rod).
5.4 Topping up fuel
Unscrew the tank cover (Fig. 1/Item 2) and add a
mixture with proportions 1:50 using a filler neck.
Ensure that you do not overfill the tank and spill
gasoline. If you do spill, wipe up the excess amount
and wait until the vapors have evaporated (danger of
ignition.) Screw the tank cover back on.
6. Operation
앬 Check the fuel level and top it up if necessary
앬 Make sure that the generator has sufficient
ventilation
앬 Make sure that the ignition cable is secured to
the spark plug
앬 Inspect the immediate vicinity of the generator
앬 Disconnect any electrical equipment which may
already be connected to the generator
6.1 Starting the engine
Important! Do not use any chemical starting agents
such as highly volatile fuels or similar.
앬 Move petrol cock (Fig.1 Pos. 3) to the “ON”
position
앬 Move the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 1/Item 7) to the “I”
position.
앬 Move the choke lever (Fig.1/Pos. 11) to position
“ ”
앬 Start the engine with the starter cord (Fig. 1/Item
4) by pulling the handle forcefully. If the motor
does not start, pull the starter cable again.
Important! If you do spill, wipe up the excess
amount and wait until the vapors have
evaporated – (danger of ignition.) Do not allow
the starter cable to whip back of its own accord.
앬 Push the choke lever (Fig. 1/Item 11) back
approximately 15 to 30 seconds after the engine
has started.
6.2 Connecting consumers to the generator
앬 Connect the 230 V~ devices to be powered to
the socket (Fig. 1/Item 10). Important: This
socket is allowed to be exposed to a continuous
(S1) load of 650 W and temporarily (S2) for a
maximum of 5 minutes to a load of 720 W.
앬 Do not connect the generator to the household
mains system, since this may damage the
generator.
Note: Some electrical appliances (power jigsaws,
drills, etc.) may have a higher level of power
consumption when used in difficult conditions.
6.3 Overload cut-out
230 V socket
앬 Reduce the level of power to be drawn
앬 Press the overload switch (Fig. 1/Item 9)
Important: If an overload occurs, ensure that the
power drawn does not exceed the generator’s
maximum power output and that no defective
devices are connected.
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.
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 7) to the
“0” position.
앬 Close the petrol cock (Fig. 1/Item 3).
7. Cleaning, maintenance, storage,
transport 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
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.
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished using it.
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
Clean the air filter at regular intervals, and replace it
if necessary. In this connection, please also read the
