    8. Place the generator in a secure, level position. Do not turn, tip or change the generator’s position while it is working.

    9. Never touch the generator with wet hands.

    10. Guard against electric danger.

    11. When working outdoors, use only extension ca-bles that are approved for outdoor use and which are marked accordingly (H07RN).

    12. The overall length of the extension cables used is not allowed to exceed 1,5 mm2 for 50 m and 2,5 mm2 for 100 m.

    13. Repairs and adjustment work may only be carried out by authorized trained personnel.

    14. Do not touch any mechanically driven or hot parts. Do not remove the safety guards.

    15.  The values quoted in the technical data under sound power level (LWA) and sound pressure lev-el (LpA) are emission values and not necessarily reliable workplace values. As there is a correla-tion between emission and immission levels, the values cannot be taken to reliably determine the possible need for additional precautions. Factors influencing the current immission level of the user/operator include the properties of the work area, other sound sources etc., e.g. the number of ma-chines and other neighboring processes, and the time span over which the user/operator is subject-ed to the noise. Also, the permitted immission level can vary from country to country. Nevertheless, this information makes it possible for the user to be able to make a better assess-ment of the dangers and risks involved.

    16. Never use a faulty or damaged electrical equip-ment (this also applies to extension cables and plug connections).

    17. Never put any items into the ventilation openings. This applies even when the generator is switched off. Non-observance may lead to injury, or damage to the generator.

    18. Generating sets may only be loaded up to their rated power under the rated ambient condition. If generating set use is under conditions which do not conform to the reference conditions as stipu-lated in ISO 8528-8 and if cooling of the engine or alternator is impaired, e.g. as a result of oper-ation in restricted areas, a reduction in power is necessary.

    19. It is necessary reduction in power due to use in higher temperatures, altitudes and humidity as be-low conditions.

    • Max. Working temperature : 40 °C
    • Max. Altitudes: 1000 m
    • Max. Humidity: 90 %
    1. Keep the generator free of oil, dirt and other im-purities.
    2. Ensure the sound absorber and air filter work prop-erly. These parts serve as flame protection in case of misfire.
    3. Before connecting electric leads, the appliance must reach its full speed. Disconnect leads before switching off the motor.
    4. To prevent injury by electric shock, ensure the fuel tank is not completely empty while electric leads are connected.
    5. The load must not exceed the power marked on the rating label of the generator. Overloading may result in damage to, or a shorter life of the appli-ance.
    6. Do not connect the appliance to household outlets. The generating set must not be connected to other power sources, such as the power company sup-ply mains.In special cases where stand-by con-nection to existing electrical systems is intended, it shall only be performed by a qualified electrician who has to consider the differences between oper-ating equipment using the public electrical supply network and operating the generating set.
    7. Stop the engine:
    • whenever you leave the machine
    • before refuelling
