Spilled oil can pollute the environment permanently.
The liquid is highly toxic and can quickly lead to water
pollution.

– Use a filling nozzle or funnel.
– Collect drained oil in a suitable container.
– Wipe up spilled oil carefully immediately and dis-
pose of the cloth according to local regulations.
– Dispose of oil as per local regulations.
Check before operation
• Check all sides of the engine for oil or fuel leaks.
• Check the engine oil level.
• Check the fuel level – the fuel tank should be at
least half-full.
• Check the condition of the air filter.
• Check the condition of the fuel lines.
• Look for signs of damage.
• Check that all protective covers are in place and all
screws, nuts and bolts are tightened.
• Ensure that the product is sufficiently ventilated.
• Make sure that the spark plug connector is attached

– Do not use bare wires for earthing.
– Product must be safely earthed.
Earthing the housing is necessary to discharge static
charging. To do this, connect a cable on one side to the
earthing screw (6) of the power generator and on the
other side to an external earth (e.g. earth rod).

8.3 Top up oil (fig. 4, 5)
ATTENTION
The product is delivered without engine oil.
Therefore, ensure that you add oil before starting
it up. Use SAE 15W-40 oil.
Check the oil level regularly before commissioning. An
oil level that is too low can damage the motor.
The oil warning system protects the product from dam-
age caused by an oil level that is too low.
Before the minimum level is reached, the oil warning in-
dicator (23) lights up and the system automatically
switches off the engine (but the main switch is still set
to REMOTE).
1. Place the product on a level, even surface.
2. Remove the ignition key (B) from the ignition lock
(14).
3. Remove the cover (4) by unscrewing the two
screws with the Phillips screwdriver (F) provided.
4. Unscrew the oil dipstick (19).
5. Use the oil filler bottle (G) provided to top up the en-
gine oil. Note the max. filling capacity of 600 ml.
Carefully fill the oil up to the lower edge of the filling
port.
6. Wipe the oil dipstick (19) with a clean, lint-free cloth.
7. Re-insert the oil dipstick (19) without screwing the
oil dipstick tight again.
8. Pull the oil dipstick (19) out and read the oil level in
the horizontal position. The oil level must be be-
tween L (low) and H (high) on the oil dipstick (19).
9. If the oil level is too low, repeat the process.
10. Then screw the oil dipstick (19) in again.
11. Put the cover (4) on and fix in place by retightening
the two screws.
8.4 Filling in fuel (Fig. 6)
DANGER
Risk of fire and explosion!
When filling, fuel may ignite and even explode. This
can lead to severe burns or death.
• Switch off the engine and let it cool down.
• Keep heat, flames and sparks away.
• Only fill up with fuel outdoors.
• Wear protective gloves.
• Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
• Start the product at a distance of at least 3 m from
the fuel filling point.
• Watch out for leaks. If fuel is leaking, do not start
the engine.
