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–up the generating set, always check the engine oil level.
Make sure the recommended oil is used (see § Specifications) and use a funnel to fill-up to the maximum limit
indicated on the dipstick.
Attention
Allow the generating set to cool down for at least 30 minutes before checking the oil level.
Retract the oil-level dipstick (fig. B - mark 1) and wipe it.
Replace the oil-level dipstick and pull it out again. Check the level visually. It should be within the upper limit shown on the dipstick
(fig. B – mark 2) and the lower limit on the dipstick (fig. B - mark 3).
Correct as required (fig. A - mark 2).
Replace the dipstick.
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.
