VI. Important supple-
mentary information
about preparing
the generator for being
put into operation
•
WARNING
y Carefully read the entire user's manual before first using
the generator, and keep the manual with the product so
that the user can become acquainted with it. If you lend
or sell the generator to somebody, include this user's
manual with it. Prevent this user's manual from being
damaged. The manufacturer takes no responsibility for
damages or injuries arising from use of the generator
that is in contradiction with this user's manual. Before
using the generator, first acquaint yourself with all the
control elements and parts as well as how to turn it
off immediately in the event of a dangerous situation
arising. Before using, first check that all parts are firmly
attached and check that no part of the generator, such
as for example safety protective elements, is damaged
or incorrectly installed, or missing. Do not use a genera-
tor with damaged or missing parts and have it repaired
or replaced at an authorised generator service centre for
the HERON® brand.
1. After unpacking, check the condition of the sur-
face of the generator, perfect working order of
the control elements of the generator and whe-
ther there are any visible defects, e.g. unconnec-
ted cables, unconnected fuel supply hoses, etc.
EN
2. Position the generator on a rigid level surface
in a well-ventilated location. The generator
must not be operated in an environment with
a fire or explosion hazard.
•
WARNINGS
The generator must not be operated in
enclosed or poorly ventilated areas or
in environments (e.g. in rooms, deeper
outdoor trenches, etc.) since the exhaust
fumes are toxic and may lead to poisoning of people
or animals. Operation in enclosed rooms, after neces-
sary measures are taken, must be approved by the
workplace safety department or respective govern-
ment authorities.
The generator must not be operated at an incline of
more than 10° relative to the horizontal plane, since at
a greater incline the lubrication system is insufficient
and this causes serious damage to the engine.
If this incline of the generator is exceeded, fuel may
leak out of the fuel tank.
2. Screw out the filling cap (see fig. 4, position
1) and use a funnel to pour class SAE 15W40
(or other class according to fig. 7 based on the
ambient temperature at which the generator is
operated) motor oil into the engine's crankcase.
The oil level must be at the level as shown in
the picture on the label. The oil level dipstick is
on the cap of the filling neck.
REQUIRED OIL LEVEL

WARNING
y When handling oil, use suitable
water-resistant protective gloves
because oil is absorbed through
the skin and is damaging to
health.
•
ATTENTION
y In order to protect the engine against damage, in the
event that there is no oil in the engine's crankcase, the
oil sensor will prevent the generator from starting.
Use quality motor oils intended for lubricating four-
-stroke air-cooled petrol/diesel engines, e.g. Shell
Helix HX7 15 W-40, Castrol GTX 15 W40 or their
equivalents, with an SAE 15W40 viscosity class, or
others based on the ambient operating temperature,
as indicated in fig. 7. Oils with an SAE 15W40 viscosity
class ensure good lubrication properties at the tem-
peratures in our climatic conditions (in temperature
range of -20°C to +40°C). Class SAE 15W40 oils can be
purchased at fuel stations.
Only quality motor oil may be used in the generator.
Using other types of oils, e.g. food-grade oil or pneu-
matic tool oil, or used automotive oil, etc. is forbidden.
