Operation; Cleaning And Maintenance - Scheppach SG2500i Original Bedienungsanleitung

m ATTENTION!
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine
stopped.
If the engine was in operation immediately before,
allow it to cool first. Never refuel the engine in a
building where the petrol vapour may come into
contact with flames or sparks.
Petrol is highly inflammable and explosive. When
handling fuels, you may suffer burns or other se-
vere injuries.

Operation

9.1 Starting the engine (Fig. 5 + 6)
m Attention! Danger of poisoning!
Only use the device outdoors and never in closed or
poorly ventilated rooms.
1. Set the ventilation on the tank cover (2) to "ON".
2. Set the on/off switch (13) to the "RUN" position.
Note: The energy saving switch (10) must be set to
"OFF".
When the engine is cold
Attention! Never allow the recoil starter (5) to spin
1.
back. This can result in damage.
2. Set the on/off switch (13) to the "CHOKE" position.
3. Now pull the recoil starter (5) and the engine should
start. If the engine does not start, repeat the process.
4. Move the on/off switch (13) from the "CHOKE" po-
sition to the "RUN" position after starting the en-
gine (after approx. 15-30 seconds). (Fig. 6)
5. If the engine does not start even after several at-
tempts, read the "Troubleshooting" chapter.
Note: With high outside temperatures, it may be nec-
essary to start the power generator without the choke
even when the engine is cold!
When the engine is warm
1. Set the on/off switch (13) to the "RUN" position.
2. Now pull the recoil starter (5) quickly. The device
should start after a maximum of 2 pulls. If the
device has still not started, repeat the procedure
described under "Starting the engine when cold".
Note:
If the engine is being started for the first time, several
tries are required to start until the fuel has been deliv-
ered from the tank to the engine.
1. Move the on/off switch (13) from the "CHOKE" po-
sition to the "RUN" position after starting the en-
gine (after approx. 15-30 seconds). (Fig. 6)

9.2 Shutting the engine off
Allow the power generator to run for a short time (ap-
prox. 30 seconds) without load before switching it off so
that it can "cool down".
1. Set the on/off switch (13) to the "OFF" position.
2. Disconnect the power consumers from the device.
3. Set the ventilation on the tank cover (2) to "OFF".
9.3 Operating display (6) (Fig. 3)
The operating display is active when the engine is run-
ning.
9.4 Overload indicator (7) (Fig. 3)
The overload protection becomes active if the power
consumption is too high and switches off the 230 V
socket (9).
1. Switch the device off as described in section 10.2.
2. Disconnect the power consumers from the device.
9.5 Oil warning indicator (8) (Fig. 3)
The indicator activates when the oil level is too low and
deactivates as soon as the oil level is sufficient.
9.6 Automatic oil cut-off
The automatic oil cut-off system responds when there
is too little engine oil. The oil warning indicator (8) starts
flashing when there is too little oil in the engine. The indi-
cator lamp starts to light up when the oil quantity has not
reached the safety quantity. The engine switches itself
off after a short time. It is not possible to start the engine
until the engine oil has been filled (see chapter 9.1).
9.7 Energy saving switch (10) (Fig. 3)
To reduce the fuel consumption when idle, move the
energy saving switch (10) to the "ON" position.
The energy saving switch (10) must be switched off
when electrical devices that require a high starting cur-
rent are connected, for example a compressor. Even
when the power generator is started, the energy saving
switch must be initially set to "OFF".
9.8 USB connection (11) (Fig. 3)
This power generator is equipped with two USB con-
nections. These can be used to charge smartphones
for example.

10. Cleaning and maintenance

Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance work,
switch off the engine and remove the spark plug con-
nector (21) from the spark plug (20).
