3. Preparation before use

3.1. Positioning the generating set for operation
Choose a site that is clean, well ventilated and sheltered from bad weather.
Place the generating set on a flat, horizontal surface which is firm enough to prevent the set sinking down (under no circumstances
should the set tilt in any direction by more than 10°).
Store the additional supplies of oil and fuel within close proximity, whilst maintaining a certain distance for safety.
3.2. Earthing the generating set
Danger
To connect the set to the ground: Attach a 10 mm
driven 1 meter into the ground.

3.3. Checking the oil level

Before starting the generating set, always check the engine oil level.
Top up with the recommended oil (see § Characteristics) using a funnel, up to the top limit of the gauge.
Allow the generating set to cool down for at least 30 minutes before checking the oil level.
Important
Remove the oil gauge (fig. A – No.2 & fig. B - No. 1) and wipe it.
Put back the oil gauge then take it out again. Visually check the level, it must be between the upper limit of the gauge
(fig. B – No. 2) & the lower limit of the gauge (fig. B – No. 3).
Top up if necessary using a funnel.
Put the oil gauge back in place.
Check that there are no leaks.
Wipe off excess oil with a clean cloth.
Never leave the battery close to a flame or fire.
Use only insulated tools.
Never use sulphuric acid or acid water to top up the electrolyte level.
