The values given in the technical data for sound
■
power level (LWA) and sound pressure level
(LpA) represent emission levels and are not nec-
essarily safe working levels.
As there is a correlation between the emission
and exposure levels, this cannot be used reliably
to determine whether or not further precautions
may be required. Factors that influence the
current exposure levels of the worker include
the characteristics of the room, other sources of
noise, airborne noise, etc., such as the number
of machines and other neighbouring processes
and the period for which the operator is exposed
to the noise. The permissible emission level can
also vary from country to country. Nevertheless,
this information allows the operator to arrive at a
better assessment of the risks and hazards.
On a case-by-case basis, acoustic measurements
should be carried out after installation to determine
the sound pressure level.
If the use of highly volatile fuels as a starting aid
■
is appropriate, then proceed with extreme caution.
Ensure that any connected electrical appliances
■
(incl. power cord and plug connections) are not
defective.
Some parts of the combustion engine are hot and
■
can cause burns. Observe the warnings on the
generator.
Do not refuel during operation. Do not refuel
■
while someone is smoking nearby or if there are
open flames in the vicinity.
During operation in well-ventilated rooms, ad-
■
ditional measures must be taken to prevent fires
and explosions.
CAUTION!
Use only lead-free standard petrol as fuel.
►
Stop the engine when refuelling.
►
Hot parts. Maintain a safe distance.

Before use

Electrical safety

■ Electrical cables and connected appliances must be in fault-free condition.
Never connect the generator to the mains supply (socket). Keep the
length of the cables to the consumer as short as possible.

Earthing

■ It is necessary to earth the housing to dissipate static charges.
♦ To do so, connect one end of a cable to the earth connection
the power generator and the other end to an external earth connection.
CAUTION!
► Before first use, add engine oil (15W–40, approx. 0.25 l) and fuel
(regular unleaded petrol). Check the fuel and engine oil levels; top
up as necessary.
Provide adequate ventilation for the appliance. Ensure that the
ignition cable is connected to the spark plug
electrical appliance that is connected to the power generator.

Adding oil

■ Check the oil level before each use.
■ Do not use the appliance if there is no oil visible on the dipstick
■ Add oil as required. Use only engine oil (15W–40).
♦ Place the appliance on a flat and stable surface.
♦ Use the supplied screwdriver
♦ Remove all dirt from around the oil filling plug/dipstick
♦ Unscrew the oil filling plug
♦ Use the supplied oil filler funnel
♦ Use the dipstick to measure the oil level.
Unscrew the dipstick and wipe it clean with a cloth. Put the dipstick
back into the oil inlet without screwing it in. Pull the dipstick
out and check the oil level.
♦ Check that the oil level is somewhere between the minimum and maxi-
mum levels (marked as L for low and H for high on the dipstick
♦ Screw the oil filling plug back on.

Adding fuel

CAUTION!
► Keep away from any sources of ignition!
► Refuel only in well-ventilated rooms or outside!
♦ Unscrew the filler cap .
♦ Using the filler neck, add a maximum of 4.5l unleaded petrol to the tank.
Make sure that you do not overfill the tank and do not spill any petrol.
Use a fuel filter .
♦ Wipe up any spilt petrol and wait until the petrol fumes have dissipated.
RISK OF IGNITION!
♦ Replace the filler cap .
. Disconnect any
to unscrew the side housing.
