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.
ATTENTION – DANGER! To prevent electric shock and avoid damage to your electric devices and generator, simultaneous switching on of three and one phase circuit breaker is prohibited!

BEFORE STARTING

The generator is supplied without fuel. Before the operation please fill the fuel. Guidelines for filling are below. Generators are supplied without motor oil. The generator casing may contain residues of oil after tests conducted during production.
Before starting to use the generator, be sure to pour oil. Recommendations on oil and it’s filling process are below. Follow maintenance recommendations during the first month or twenty hours (whichever occurs first) contained in the “Maintenance” section.

CHECK THE FUEL LEVEL

1. Remove the fuel tank cap and check the fuel level.
2. Fill fuel to the level of the fuel filter and make sure there is no air in the fuel system.
3. Screw the fuel tank cap back tightly.

CHECK THE OIL LEVEL

1. Unscrew the oil level gage and clean it with clean cloth.
2. Put the oil gage back without screwing it.
3. Take the oil level gage out and check the oil level according to the mark on a gage.
4. Add oil if it’s level is below the mark on a gage.
5. Screw the oil gage back.

For commissioning models with elektrostart please charge the battery. Please use additional battery charger (not included) to charge the battery or let the generator work at least one hour at 50% load at the first start.

IMPORTANT! Diesel fuel type should correspond the operating season.

STARTING TO WORK

Before starting the engine, make sure that the rated power of power consumers matches with the power of generator. Do not exceed the nominal power of the generator. Do not connect the device before starting the engine!

ATTENTION – DANGER! 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. Any changes to the design of the generator will void the warranty service!
ATTENTION – DANGER! Do not let the generator work more than 30 minutes in range from nominal to maximum.

This material is for informational purposes only and is not an instruction how to install or connect equipment to the network. In practice, there are different options for supplying electricity and different rules for its connection. The decision on how to properly connect the equipment in each individual case must be made by a certified electrician who performs the installation and electrical connection of the equipment. The manufacturer is not responsible for improper connection of equipment, and is not responsible for possible material and physical damage that may occur as a result of improper installation, connection or operation of equipment.

IN THE FIRST 20 OPERATING HOURS OF THE GENERATOR, THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS SHOULD BE MET:

1. During commissioning, do not connect power consumers, the power of which exceeds 50% of the nominal (operating) power of the device.
2. After the first 20 operating hours, be sure to change the oil. It is better to drain oil while the engine is still hot after operation to ensure quick and complete oil draining.
3. Check and clean the air filter and fuel filter.

MANUAL START
Do not connect any devices before you start the engine!

1. Connect the positive terminal of the battery.
2. Turn the motor safety switch (Fig. 1) to ON position.
3. Pull the starter handle until you feel resistance.
4. Remove the rubber plug on the top cover of the generator, which is under decompressor lever (fig. 2), push the decompressor at the top of cylinder head to reduce pressure in the cylinder and relief extension.
5. Vigorously pull starter handle and start the engine.
6. Do not let a sharp return to starter motor. To avoid starter damage, return it to the original position carefully.
7. After three minutes of the generator work, switch machine protection (Emergency switch) in the upper position ON.

ELECTRIC START

1. Do not connect any devices before you start the engine!
2. Connect the positive terminal of the battery.
3. Turn the motor safety switch (Fig. 1) to ON position.
4. Set the key to ON position.
5. Turn the key clockwise to START position.
6. After the engine launch, release the key, and it will automatically return to ON position.
7. If the engine doesn’t start after keeping the key in START position for 10 seconds, wait 15 seconds before trying start again. The battery can discharge after continuous work of launch engine system. Leave the key in ON the position during work.
8. After three minutes of the generator work, switch machine protection (Emergency switch) in the upper position ON.

IMPORTANT! If engine does not start after three or four attempts, it may mean that the fuel system has some air inside. Remove the air from the fuel system (drain the diesel fuel, with the fuel there will be excess of air).
ATTENTION – DANGER! Do not let the simultaneous connection of two or more devices. Start of many devices requires large power capacity
Devices are to be connected in turns, according to its maximum allowed power. Do not connect the consumers in first 1-2 minutes  after the generator start. Do not stop the generator, if there are any devices connected. This may result to generator breakdown.

• Watch the voltage meter and in case of excessive indices values, stop the generator operation.
• Connection to continuous voltage socket is used for accumulator recharge only. Upon accumulator unit recharge, it is mandatory to verify the polarity correctness ( + to +, – to – ).
• Charging device wires have to be at first connected to the accumulator unit and only then – to the generator itself. All “generator to network” connections are to be carried out by a certified electrician. Any mistakes may result in serious equipment damage.
• It is forbidden to use 12V voltage simultaneously with 230V (400V for threephase generators).

STOPPING THE ENGINE

1. Set the circuit breaker (safety switch) on the generator control panel to the down position (OFF), stop all power consuming devices connected to the generator.
2. Let the generator run at no load for 3 minutes for alternator to be cooled.
3. Turn the key to OFF position.
4. For all types of diesel generators there is an emergency stop emergency switch engine. Use it in case of emergency only.

CONNECTING DEVICES
Do not let the generator work more than 30 minutes in range from nominal to maximum.
After starting the engine, make sure the voltmeter readings correspond to the nominal (at 50 Hz 230V + – 10% for single-phase units and 400 + -10% for threephase).

STARTING THE GENERATOR USING THE ATS UNIT
When starting the generator in automatic or manual mode using the ATS unit (automatic transfer switch), the start key on the generator control panel must be in the “OFF” position.

FOR THREE-PHASE DIESEL GENERATOR
Three-phase diesel generator load must be distributed on all three phases, and the load on all phases must be balanced. The load on 1 phase should not exceed 1/3 of the total generator capacity. Maximum permissible imbalance is 20%.
Only 1 or 2 phase load leads to the generator breakage. The total load and total current on all three phases should not exceed nominal load and current of the generator.

IMPORTANT! Failure to follow these instructions may lead to damage of the rotor and stator windings, the AVR unit.

MODELS WITH VTS SYSTEM VTS
Models named “1/3” are equipped with a VTS phase switching system. These models can operate in singlephase (230V) and three-phase (400V) almost without loss of power.

IMPORTANT! Switching modes is only allowed when the load is completely switched off.

ATTENTION – DANGER! An overload may lead to automatic activation of generator protection machine. Reduce the load. Reconnect the generator no earlier than 5 minutes after switching off.

TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE WORKS

Works, specified in “Technical maintenance” section, are to be regularly performed. If the the generator user has no possibility to perform regular maintenance independently, it is necessary to address the official service center to registrate an order for such works performance.

IMPORTANT! In case of any damages, occurred due to non-performance of regular maintenance works, the manufacturer bears no responsibility for such damages.

SUCH DAMAGES ARE ALSO:

RECOMMENDED OILS

Motor oil has a serious impact on performance characteristics and is a major attribute, defining its service life. Use oils designed for four-stroke cycle vehicle engines SAE 10W-30, SAE 10W-40, since such oils contain cleaning additives, which comply or even exceed SE standards according to API classification (or equivalent).
Motor oils with other viscosity levels, may be used only if the average air temperature in your region does not exceed the limits of the temperature range, specified in the table. Oil viscosity according to SAE standards or service category, are specified on the API capacity sticker.

ENGINE OIL REPLACEMENT OR ADDING
Upon oil level decrease it is necessary to add the required quantity in order to provide the correct generator operation.
It is necessary to check the oil levels according to technical maintenance schedule. When changing the oil, remove the oil filter, flush it with gasoline and install it back.

TO DRAIN THE OIL:

1. Place a drain oil holding tank under the engine.
2. Turn the drain cap, located under the oil-depth gage cap in the engine, by means of a 10mm hexagon spanner.
3. Wait till the oil drains.
4. Put the drain cap back and tighten it well.

OIL FILLING:

1. Make sure that the generator is set on flat level surface.
2. Unscrew the oil gage cap on the engine.
3. By means of a funnel, pour the advanced purification engine oil to the crankcase. The funnel is not included. Oil level after filling has to be close to the upper part of oil filler.

AIR FILTER MAINTENANCE

It is necessary to check the air filter from time to time and clean any contaminations. Regular air filter maintenance is necessary to maintain sufficient carburetor air inflow. The air filter should be cleaned more often when using generator in dusty conditions.

ATTENTION – DANGER! Never run the engine with the air filter removed or without the filter. Otherwise dirt and dust lead to rapid breakage of engine parts. Failure in this case will not be repaired.
IMPORTANT! Air filter replacement is to be performed each 100 hours of the generator operation (every 10 hours in unusually dusty conditions).

FUEL FILTER TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE

There are two kinds of fuel filters in Könner & Söhnen ® diesel generators. They prevent the ingress of contaminants from diesel fuel to the engine.

COARSE CLEANING FUEL FILTER
Remove the filter after the possible hard particles hit every 500 operating hours. Never use water for purification the filter.

1. Remove the fuel cap.
2. Remove the fuel filter.
3. Use diesel fuel to clean the filter.
4. Put the filter back to the fuel tank.

THE FUEL FILTER IN THE FUEL SUPPLY PIPELINE
This filter has to be replaced every 100 operating hours. It’s located under the fuel tank on the fuel hose through which fuel enters the engine from the tank. To replace it:

1. Loosen the metal hose clamps, located next to the fuel valve to drain the fuel.
2. Drain the fuel to some special volume.
3. Loosen metal staples on both sides of the fuel filter.
4. Remove the filter.
5. Install new filter, paying attention to the arrow shown. The filter should be installed in the fuel passage direction.
6. Tighten the bracket on the fuel hose.

ATTENTION – DANGER! Keep an eye on the position of the fuel filter, it should be located to the maximum upright.

ACCUMULATOR MAINTENANCE

In Könner & Söhnen ® models with electric start you should periodically perform battery voltage checks.
The generator battery has a voltage of 12V and if the voltage is lower, you should perform battery charging with the help of an external charger.
To avoid discharging the battery, it is recommended to run the generator at least once a month for 30 minutes. If the generator is not used for a long time, please disconnect the battery from the terminals. The battery that comes with the generator does not require additional maintenance and filling of electrolyte.
The generator battery is not subject to service. If the generator is not used for a long time, the battery may fail. To prolong battery life it is recommended to do battery charging with an external device (not included) every three months. Battery warranted – three months from the date of purchase of the generator.

GENERATOR STORAGE

Storage room has to be dry and free from dust deposits. Storage room also has to be locked away from children.

IMPORTANT! Warning! Generator is to remain ready for operation at all times. Therefore in case of device malfunctions, they are to be repaired before dismounting the generator for storage.

LONG-TERM STORAGE
If you do not plan to use the generator for a long time, we recommend:

• Drain the fuel from the tank.
• Drain the oil from the engine.
• Pull the manual starter until you feel light resistance so that the intake and exhaust valves are closed.
• Remove the negative terminal of the battery for the electric start models.
• Clean generator from dirt and dust.

When starting the generator after long storage, follow all procedures in reverse order.

IMPORTANT! Pay attention to the fact that upon failed attempts to launch the generator by means of an electric start, the accumulator units may turn out de-energized, therefore prior to operation start it may be necessary to perform full accumulator unit charging.

BATTERY AND GENERATOR DISPOSAL

To prevent environment damage generator and battery should be separated from ordinary waste. Please recycle them in the safest way, passing it to special place for disposal.
