5. Safety features (if fitted, see specifications table)
5.1. Oil cut-out
This mechanism is designed to prevent any damage to the motor resulting from lack of oil in the motor sump. It automatically cuts out the
motor. If the motor stops and will not restart, check the motor oil level before looking for any other cause of the problem.

5.2. Circuit breaker

The electrical circuit of the set is protected by several magnetothermal, differential or thermal cut-out switches. Any overload and/or short
circuits cause the supply of electrical energy to be cut.

6. Maintenance schedule

6.1. Reminder of use
The maintenance interval frequency and the operations to be carried out are outlined in the maintenance programme.
However, it should be added that it is the environment in which the generating set is operating which determines this programme.
Accordingly, if the set is used in extreme conditions, shorter intervals between maintenance procedures should be adopted.
These maintenance schedules apply only to generating sets running on fuel and oil, that conform to the specifications given in this booklet.

7. Maintenance procedures

7.1. Cleaning the air filter

Never use petrol or solvents with a low flash point for cleaning the air filter element as this could result in a fire or
explosion.
Danger
Remove the wing nut (no. 1, fig. C) attaching the air filter cover (no. 2, fig. C), then remove the latter.
Remove the wing nut attaching the filter.
Remove the assembly consisting of foam (no. 3, fig. C) and paper (no. 4, fig. C) elements, and separate them. Check carefully that the
two elements are not torn or pierced. Replace them if they are damaged.
Foam element:
A)
Wash the element in a solution of household cleaning product and warm water, then rinse thoroughly, or wash it in non-flammable
solvent or solvent with a high flash point. Leave the element to dry fully.
B) Soak the element in clean engine oil and remove the excess oil. The engine will smoke when it is started for the first time if too
much oil remains in the foam.
Paper element:
Tap the element lightly several times on a hard surface to remove excess dirt, or send compressed air through the filter, from the inside
outward. Never try to remove dirt using a brush. Replace the element if it is too dirty.
Carry out refitting following the reverse procedure to that used for removal.
