TERMS OF USE

When starting operating the generator, it’s recommended to ground it. Before starting the unit, remember that the total power of consumers connected should not exceed the rated capacity of the generator.

TYPES OF CONSUMERS AND INRUSH CURRENT
Consumers (electrical devices connected to the generator) are divided into active and reactive ones. Active ones are those, which energy is converted into heat (heating devices).
Reactive are all consumers with electric motor. When you run the engine, starting currents occur briefly, the size of which depends on engine design and purpose. Please consider those starting currents when choosing a generator. Most electric tools have starting current ratio 2-3. This means that when you turn such tools required generator power have 2-3 times more power load. The biggest factor of inrush current have such consumers as compressors, pumps, washing machines.

GENERATOR GROUND CIRCUIT
In order to prevent electric shock due to shoddy electrical appliances or wrong use of electricity, the generator must be grounded with a good-quality insulated conductor.

IMPORTANT!
Make sure the control panel, louver and the inverter bottom side cooling well and without chips, mud and water come in. It may damage the engine, inverter or alternator if the cooling vent blocked.

WORKING WITH THE DEVICE
ENGINE SWITCH
To enable engine turn the start switch to ON position. To eliminate the engine, turn the switch to STOP position. For model KSB 21i S, the engine switch is combined with the fuel valve handle. To turn on the engine, turn the fuel valve to the “ON” position; to turn off the engine, turn the fuel valve to the “OFF” position.

OIL WARNING LIGHT (YELLOW)
When the oil level falls below the lower level, the oil warning light comes on and then the engine stops automatically. Unless you refill with oil, the engine will not start again.

IMPORTANT!
Tip:
If the engine stalls or does not start, turn the engine switch to “ON” and then pull the recoil starter. If the oil warning light flickers for a few seconds, the engine oil is insufficient. Add oil and restart.

НOVERLOAD INDICATOR LIGHT (RED)
The overload indicator light comes on when an overload of a connected electrical device is detected, the inverter control unit overheats, or the AC output voltage rises. Then, the AC protector will trip, stopping power generation in order to protect the generator and any connected electric devices. The AC pilot light (Green) will go off and the overload indicator light (Red) will stay on, but the engine will continue running.
When the overload indicator light comes on and power generation stops, proceed as follows:

1. Turn off any connected electric devices and stop the engine.
2.  Reduce the total wattage of connected appliance into the rated output.
3.  Check for blockages in the cooling air inlet and around the control unit. If any blockages are found, remove.
4. After checking, restart the engine.

IMPORTANT!
Tip:
The overload indicator light may come on for a few seconds at first when using electric devices that require a large starting current, such as a compressor or a submergible pump. However, this is not a malfunction.

AC PILOT LIGHT (GREEN)
The AC pilot light comes on when the engine starts and produces power.

DC PROTECTOR
The DC protector turns to “OFF” automatically when electric device being connected to the generator is operating and current above the rated flows. To use this equipment again, turn on DC protector by pressing its button to “ON”.

IMPORTANT!
Reduce the load of the connected electric device below the specified rated output of the generator if the DC protector turns off. If the DC protector turns off again, stop using the device immediately and contact the point of sale and contact your nearest K&S Basic TM Service Center.

ECONOMY CONTROL SWITCH (ECON) “ON”
When the ECON switch is turned to “ON”, the economy control unit controls the engine speed according to the connected load. As result you get less fuel consumption and noise.
““OFF”
When the ECON switch is turned to “OFF”, the engine runs at the rated speed (4500r/min) regardless of whether is a load connected or not.

IMPORTANT!
Tip:
The ECON must be turned to “OFF” when using electric devices that require a large starting current, such as a compressor of a submergible pump.

FUEL TANK CAP
Remove the fuel tank cap by turning it counterclockwise.

FUEL TANK CAP AIR VENT KNOB
The fuel tank cap is provided with an air vent knob to stop fuel flow (for models KSB 21i S, KSB 31iE S). The air vent knob must be turned to “ON”. This will allow fuel to flow to the carburetor and the engine to run. When the engine is not in use, turn the air vent knob to “OFF” to stop fuel flow.

GROUND (EARTH) TERMINAL
Grounding terminal connects the earth line for prevention of electric shock. When the electric device is grounded, the generator must be earthed too.

BEFORE STARTING

CHECK THE FUEL LEVEL

1. Remove the fuel tank cap and check the fuel level.
2. Add fuel to the filter level if necessary.
3. Screw the fuel tank cap back tightly.

IMPORTANT!
Immediately wipe off spilled fuel with a clean, dry, soft cloth, since fuel may deteriorate painted surfaces or plastic parts. Use only unleaded gasoline. The use of leaded gasoline will cause severe damage to internal engine parts.
Recommended fuel: Unleaded gasoline
Fuel tank volume: s ee specifications table.

CHECK THE OIL LEVEL Generstor is transported without the motor oil. Please don’t start the engine without filling the sufficient amount of motor oil.

1. Unscrew the oil dipstick and wipe it out with a clean cloth.
2. Insert the dipstick without screwing it in.
3.  Check the oil level by a mark on the oil dipstick.
4. Add oil if its level is below the mark on the oil dipstick.
5.  Screw on the dipstick.

Recommended engine oil: SAE 10W-30, SAE 10W-40.
Recommended engine oil grade: API Service SE type or higher. Motor oil quantity: see specifications table.

STARTING TO WORK
Ensure that the power tool or consumers meet current capabilities of the generator before starting the engine. It is prohibited to exceed its rated capacity. Do not connect the device before starting the engine! Do not tilt the generator when adding engine oil. This could result in over filling and damage to the engine. The generator can be used with the rated output load at standard atmospheric conditions. The output of the generator varies due to temperature change, altitude (lower air pressure at higher altitude) and humidity. The output of the generator is reduced when the temperature, the humidity and the altitude are higher than standard atmospheric conditions. Additionally, the load must be reduced when using in a confined area, as generator cooling is affected.

Standard atmospheric conditions
Ambient temperature: -5оС to +30оС
Barometric pressure: 100 kPa
Relative humidity: less than 70%

IMPORTANT!
Do not change the configuration of the amount of fuel or speed controllers (this adjustment was made before the sale). Otherwise, there will be possible changes in the engine work or breakage.

ATTENTION – DANGER!
Do not let the generator work more than 30 minutes in range from nominal to maximum.
