ATTENTION
y The generators do not have car battery over-char-
ging protection and, therefore, regularly check the
voltage on the car battery terminals using a volt-
meter, with the charging cables disconnected. The
terminal voltage on the car battery should not be
greater than 14.4 V (after disconnecting the char-
ging cables; the charge level relative to the voltage
is listed in table 2). The 12 V DC output from he
generator is not intended for charging any other
batteries than 12 V lead car batteries.
•
ATTENTION
y Hydrogen is produced during the car battery rechar-
ging process, which together with air creates an
explosive mixture. Therefore, do not smoke during
the recharging process and prevent access to any
flame or radiant heat sources. Ensure sufficient venti-
lation during the charging process.
y A car battery contains a sulphuric acid solution,
which is a strong caustic agent, which causes chemi-
cal burns and tissue damage. When handling a car
battery, use suitable protective equipment, as a mini-
mum rubber gloves and safety glasses. Never eat or
drink while handling the car battery.
y In the event that skin comes into contact with
electrolyte, immediately wash it under running water
and then wash with soap. In the event that this acid
solution is ingested, drink 200 ml of clean unflavou-
red still water and immediately contact a medical
doctor or the Toxicological information centre.
 In the event of a short circuit, e.g. accidental connec-
tion of the alligator clips +/– of the charging cable or
overloading by drawing a greater current, the direct
current circuit breaker will be triggered (fig. 1, posi-
tion 14). To restore current supply, first eliminate the
cause of the short circuit or overloading and then
press the circuit breaker button (fig. 1, position 14).
5. Turn off the generator before disconnecting the char-
ging cables of the generator from the car battery.
6. First disconnect the alligator clip of the charging
cable from the grounded pole of the car battery
then the alligator clip of the ungrounded pole of
the car battery.
VII. Turning off
the generator
(putting out of operation)
1. Set the circuit breakers of the generator to the
"OFF" position (lever down).
2. Set the power switch to the "OFF" position.
3. Shut off the fuel supply using the fuel valve by set-
ting the lever to position "OFF" on the pictogram.
4. Disconnect all electrical devices from the outputs
of the generator.
EN
 If it is required to quickly shut off the generator, first of
all set the power switch to the "OFF" position and then
set the circuit breakers to the "OFF" position. Then per-
form all the remaining steps.
•
ATTENTION
y Closing the fuel supply using the fuel valve is neces-
sary, otherwise petrol could pass through the petrol
lines to the engine's cylinders, namely when trans-
porting or handling the engine, and then it is neces-
sary to have the engine's cylinders cleaned out at
an authorized service centre, for which the right of
a cost-free repair does not apply.
VIII. Additional information
for the use
of the generator
CONTENT OF OXYGENOUS
COMPOUNDS IN THE FUEL
 The content of oxygenous compounds in lead-free car petrol
must meet the current requirements of norm EN 228.
Under no condition prepare the fuel blend yourself but
instead procure it only at a fuel station. Do not modify the
composition of the purchased fuel (excluding the use of
a fuel conditioner). Use only good quality lead-free car petrol.
OIL SENSOR AND MONITORING
THE OIL AMOUNT
 The generator is fitted with an oil sensor (fig. 4, position
2) that shuts off the engine when the oil level falls below
a critical limit, and thus prevents damage to the engine
resulting from insufficient lubrication. In the event that
there is no oil in the crankcase, the oil sensor will prevent
the generator from starting up. The presence of this
sensor does not entitle the operator to omit regular
checks of the amount of oil in the engine's oil tank.
 The oil sensor must not be removed
from the generator.
DIGITAL METER OF OUTPUT
VOLTAGE, FREQUENCY
AND OPERATION HOURS.
y The generator is equipped with a digital motor hours
counter from the last start (the counter is automatically
reset to zero when the engine is turned off) as well as
a total motor hours counter (symbol "H") from the first
start of the generator, the output voltage (symbol "V")
and frequency (symbol "Hz"), see description of the
front (control) panel of the generator.
