Checks before use:
4.1 Battery connections
- Before connecting the battery, check if the dial selector on the control panel is in the “OFF” position.
- Open the battery access door and connect the quick connectors as shown in the image below.
NOTE: Make sure that the joint between them is well done. 4.2 Assembling of wheels and levelling feet.
Fix the wheel axles (4) with the screws (1) included. Next, insert the
wheel (3) on the axle, and fix it with the washer (2) and the screw (1).
Screw on the rubber feet (5) with the included screws (6). **NOTE: Do not use the generator without wheels and
levelling feet. They are designed to absorb vibrations of the equipment during
the running, thus avoiding damage due to tensions and jolts.
4.3 Assembly of transport handles
First fix the handlebars (7-8) with fasteners as described in the image
below.
Now fix the upper blockers (9) with their fasteners and spring (6). Finally,
install the front plate (10) in the holes that remain inside the handlebars.
In image B you can see the result of the assembled elements.
NOTE:** The handlebars go up freely and will be locked at the top. To
unlock and lower them, raise them slightly first and then rotate the
handlebars inwards as in image C.
- Install the rear handlebar (1) according to image B. This handlebar will allow the movement of the equipment between two people.
4.4 Oil filling and checking
NOTE: The generator is delivered without oil. Do not attempt to start the
generator without adding oil in the engine first!
- The generator has to be on a perfectly flat surface and levelled, to avoid an error in the oil level reading.
- Using a screwdriver, remove the 4 screws and open the access window according to image A.
- Remove the cap with oil level as shown in the image B below.
- Put the oil into the engine until reach the upper limit of the level.
The estimated amount of oil to
reach a correct level is 1.1L.
Preferably use a synthetic engine oil SAE5W40 with API “SJ” (USA) or ACEA “A3”
(EUROPE) or more updated (see container specifications). This oil will give
excellent results in variable climates such as continental Europe, both in
winter and summer.
NOTE: The engine may consume a bit of oil during its running. Therefore,
before each running, always check oil level and refill if necessary.
NOTE: Never use oils that are old, dirty, in poor condition or without
specifications (grade and quality). Do not mix different types of oils.
4.5 Refuelling and checking
NOTE: Use only unleaded gasoline (86 Octane or higher).
NOTE: Never use expired gasoline, contaminated or mixed with
oil/gasoline.
NOTE: Avoid dirt or water into the fuel tank.
NOTE: Do not use a mixture of gasoline with ethanol or methanol, because
the engine can be damaged seriously.
Remove the fuel cap, turning counter clockwise. Refuel the gasoline without
reaching the maximum level (MAX), according to the image below. The
approximated tank capacity is 23 litters. DANGER: Gasoline is extremely explosive and flammable.
During the refuelling is completely forbidden to smoke, to do fire or other
any kind of flame.
The same procedures for the fuel storage place.
WARNING: Keep the fuel out of the reach of children.
WARNING: Avoid fuel spillages when refuelling (before restarting the
engine, clean possible spillages).
WARNING: Do not overfill the fuel tank (do not exceed the maximum level).
After refuelling, ensure that the fuel filler cap is properly fitted and
closed.
CAUTION: Avoid skin contact and do not inhale the fuel vapours.
The engine starting:
5.1 The electrical starting
- Disconnect all equipment from generator or ensure that its general switch is in the “OFF” position. The starting of the generator has to be done without equipment connected.
- Identify the fuel valve (inner dial of the dial selector marked in grey color in the lower image). Turn it to the “ON” (open) position.
- Turn the OFF/ON selector (external dial marked grey color in the image below) to the “ON” position).
- Press the “START” button.
NOTE: On the first start attempt, if the generator fails, wait a few
seconds and try again.
NOTE: At the first start of the machine, or if the machine has not been
used for a long time, the battery may be weak to start.
If you see that the battery charge is insufficient, review the chapter
“Recharging the battery from the charging port” of this user manual.
5.2 The manual starting (only if there is no battery or it is low)
- Disconnect all equipment from generator or ensure that its general switch is in the “OFF” position. The starting of the generator has to be done without equipment connected.
- Identify the fuel valve (inner dial of the dial selector marked in grey color in the lower image). Turn it to the “ON” (open) position.
- Turn the OFF/ON selector (external dial marked grey color in the image below) to the “ON” position.
- Open the access cover in order to operate the manual choke (image below). Turn it to the right for a cold start.
- Smoothly, grab the handle and pull the starter rope (recoil starter) until the final to calculate the maximum stroke of the rope (and not exceed it after when you pull energetically). After let the rope recoils and then pull the rope energetically to start the engine.
- After the engine has started, turn the choke lever fully to the left.
NOTE: If the rope recoils abruptly, the spring or the rope itself may be
damaged. This is not covered by the warranty.
NOTE: After pulling, do not release wilfully the handle to avoid hitting
the machine. Control the handle tightly until it is fully recoiled.
NOTE: Never pull the starter rope while the generator is running.
NOTE: Don’t leave the dial selector in choke position or other
intermediate positions while the engine is running, otherwise, it could cause
a poor combustion, abnormal operation and breakdowns.
NOTE: The auto choke will not work if the battery is very low or damaged.
In this case you must close the choke manually and then pull the starter rope.
The battery is recharged while the engine is running, you can also recharge it
with the engine off from the external socket on the panel, see chapter
“Recharging the battery from the charging port”.
5.3 Stopping the generator
- Disconnect electrical equipment connected to the generator.
- Turn the multi-function selector (external dial marked in grey color) to the “OFF” position.
- Turn the fuel valve (inner dial marked in grey color) to the “OFF” position.
5.4 Remote control starting
(CRETA SILENT RC)
The CRETA SILENT RC model allows remote starting wirelessly up to a maximum
distance of 50m by a remote control system.
NOTE: The remote control system is not included in the CRETA SILENT SOL
or CRETA SILENT ATS models and cannot be installed as an optional.
- Turn the fuel valve to the “ON” position.
- Turn the OFF/ON selector (external dial marked grey color in the image below) to the “ON” position.
- On the remote control, press the “ON” button for one second. The generator will perform the starting process automatically.
NOTE: Do not keep pressed the “ON” button on the remote control. Just
press for about a second.
On the first start attempt, if the generator fails, automatically it performs
six new attempts. Just wait. If the generator does not start within the six
preprogrammed attempts, you can press the “ON” button on the remote control
again to do another sequence of starts.
This generator has an automatic choke, so no lever action is required to make
easy the starting in a cold condition.
NOTE: The auto choke will not work if the battery is very low or damaged.
In this case you must close the choke manually and then pull the starter rope.
The battery recharges while the engine is running, you can also recharge it
with the engine off from the external socket on the panel, see chapter
“Recharging the battery from the charging port”.
NOTE: If the generator remains off for more than 24 hours, the generator
will automatically go into “SLEEP” mode. To reactivate the remote control you
must press the START button on the generator. This function prevents battery
discharge.
NOTE: If the remote control does not work or works abnormally, replace
the battery.
OPD Function (Output power delayed). Up to 20 seconds after the starting, the
generator does not generate electricity in the sockets. This ensures that the
generator starts without supplying power to the connected equipment.
5.5 Remote control stopping
On the remote control, press the “OFF” button. NOTE: If you will not use the generator in the next 12
hours, so close the fuel valve and turn the key to the “OFF” position. This
action avoids the battery discharge during periods of inactivity.
5.6 Synchronize a new remote-control device
NOTE: To sync a second remote control — without cancelling an existing one —
follow steps 1 to 5, but skip step 3. Note that only two remote controls can
be synchronized at the same time.
NOTE: To sync a new remote — cancelling the old one — follow steps 1 to
5, including step 3.
- Turn the key to the “ON” position.
- Press the “PILOT LAMP” button for more than 3 seconds until the blue light on.
- Press the “STOP” button on the remote control for more than 1 second and the blue “PILOT LAMP” will flash.
- Press the “START” button on the remote control for more than 1 second and the blue “PILOT LAMP” will flash.
- Press the “PILOT LAMP” button and hold it until the light turn off, and with this the new remote control will be synchronized.
The generator usage and its protections:
To improve engine performance and to extend machine life, a 20 hour “break-in”
period is recommended without forcing the generator, with loads not exceeding
60-70% of the maximum output of the equipment.
WARNING: Ensure the installation of the ground wire. If you have doubts,
please, call your electrician. WARNING: Never connect directly the voltage output of the
generator to a building or a house (even when there is a circuit breaker for
the main circuit). The return of the main circuit will shock with the
generator output, which will do serious damages to the generator or even a
fire.
WARNING: Do not connect the generator in parallel with other generators
in order to add powers. The generators will be damaged and there will be a
high risk of fire.
NOTE: Do not connect an extension to the exhaust pipe.
NOTE: When an extension cable is required, you have to ensure its good
quality and proper section (ask to your electrician).
NOTE: Equipment that has an electric motor (compressors, water pumps,
saws, grinders, etc.) requires up to 3 times more power during the starting.
For example, a 500W water pump needs 1500W to start. Therefore, always confirm
the nominal powers (rated) of the equipment to be connected and ensure that
they do not exceed the maximum power produced by the generator, according to
our recommendation.
WARNING: before connecting to the generator, confirm if all equipment is
in good working conditions.
If the equipment runs abnormally, slowly or spontaneously shuts down, stop the
generator immediately and disconnect the equipment.
6.1 Sockets protection
Your generator has thermal protectors (circuit breakers) that protect
sockets from higher loads.
In case of exceeding its maximum capacity in one socket, the circuit breaker
will cut the current to avoid an overheating or fire in the socket or in the
connected plug.
- A 16A socket allows a maximum power supply of 3680W (230Vx16A).
- A 32A socket allows a maximum power supply of 7360W (230Vx32A).
In case of overload, first of all, disconnect the connected equipment.
Once the equipment has been disconnected, reset the overload protector by
moving it to the “ON” position and thus restore the voltage output.If the overload protector jumps
when connecting the equipment, give up connecting it. The connected equipment
may have a problem or it may exceed the maximum capacity of the socket or the
generator itself.
Remember that many equipment need an extra power consumption to start.
Devices that has an electric motor (compressors, water pumps, saws, grinders
or others) requires up to 3 times more power during the starting. For example,
a 1000W water pump requires 3000W to start, so that we would need a generator
not less than 3000W. In certain refrigerators these calculations can be even
greater.
The equipment has a 30mA differential (RCBO) that protects against current
leaks and also protects people from shocks. This device also protects against
maximum overload supported by the equipment. In case of jump of the RCBO,
check possible problems in the electrical circuit, and once solved, restore
the output. The generator needs a correct independent ground connection for
the RCBO to work correctly.
6.2 Digital control panel
Central pilot: Correct running
After the generator starts, it turns on and it means that the running is
normal. Left pilot: Generator
overload
If the generator is overloaded, the indicator turns on. In this case, the
generator will keep running, but the power output will be cut off. In case of overload, follow the
steps below:
- Disconnect the equipment from the generator.
- Press the “RESET” button, according to the image above.
- Connect other equipment which power consumption is less than the rated power performed by the generator.
NOTE: A dirty air filter reduces the maximum power of the equipment,
activating the overload alarm even with lower power consumption than the
nominal power performed by the generator.
Right pilot: Lack of oil
The lack of oil alarm system is designed to avoid damage to the engine caused
by insufficient amount of oil.
With a low oil level, this indicator turns on and consequently, for security
reasons, the engine turns off. The engine only starts again if the oil level
is restored. NOTE: Protection due to lack of
oil must be considered an extra security.
Checking the oil level before each use is the full responsibility of the user,
as indicated and recommended in this manual. The probability of failure of the
alarm system is very low, but if the checking also fails, the damage on the
engine will be very high. Thus, unique and exclusively, the user is
responsible for any damage due to lack of oil. This kind of damage is not
covered by the warranty.
NOTE: This alarm system only works when the level of oil is not enough,
no protecting in case of inadequate oil or oil in poor condition.
Left sidebar: Generator power output indicator
Show by approximation, the level of power consumption against to the total
capacity of the generator. Just an indicative function. Central display: Parameters indicator.
During the running, the central display shows Voltage, Frequency and Hours of
work. You have only to press the “RESET” button to see each parameter.
6.3 Carburettor modification for high altitude running
At high altitude, the normal mixture of air and fuel in the carburettor
will be too rich.
The performance is reduced and the fuel consumption is increased. A very rich
mixture also gets dirty the spark plug and makes it difficult to start the
engine. If a generator always operates at an altitude above 1500 meters,
contact a Genergy Authorized Service to modify the carburettor (this service
is not covered by the warranty, so it will be paid by the client).
Remember that even with a modification in the carburettor, the power will
decrease at a rate of 3.5% every 300m of altitude.
NOTE: If the carburettor is modified to operate at high altitude, the
mixture of air and fuel will be too poor to operate at low altitudes. The
running of a modified generator at low altitude can cause overheating and
consequent engine damage.
Hence, it is necessary to change the carburettor to its original
configuration.
6.4 Recharging the battery from the charging port
The CRETA SILENT SOL and CRETA SILENT RC models have a charging port
(CHARGER PORT) to recharge the battery of the generator. The CRETA SILENT ATS
model hasn´t it, because the battery of the generator is charged from an
external ATS box through the communication connector of 7 wires.
Connect the battery charger (included with the machine) to a 230V socket and
to the charging port (CHARGER PORT) on the control panel of the generator.
Charging can take around four hours. NOTE: Do not use chargers or other plugs different of the
original. If you need to replace the charger, purchase an original from your
GENERGY supplier.
If you do not have a 230V socket, you can start the generator manually and let
it run for a few hours. The battery also recharges from the engine.
After charging, if the battery still does not work, take it to a technical
service for inspection, it may be in poor condition and needs to be replaced.
Mains failure mode (CRETA SILENT ATS):
7.1 Introduction
The ATS (automatic transfer switching) system allows to control the start
and stop functions of the generator, as well as the conversion between the
generator output and the mains output. The signal communication between the
ATS and the generator is performed through a cable of 7 lines. The user can
decide if he wants to work in automatic or manual mode, and also to select
between generator output or mains output.
7.2 The panel components of the ATS box

7.3 Electrical parameters
Power supply: DC10-15V
Input voltage: AC220-240V
Rated frequency: 50-60Hz
Maximum power: 10000W
Maximum intensity: 45A
Connection between ATS box and generator
7.4 Installation
DANGER: The connection of the generator and the ATS box must be done by a
qualified electrician and always without mains voltage.
NOTE: The diagram below is for reference only and is only intended to
assist in the interpretation of its operation. The user is exclusively
responsible for the installation, which must be carried out in accordance with
the electrical regulations of each country or region. NOTE: The ATS box can only be connected to the CRETA SILENT
ATS generator. It cannot be connected with the SILENT SOL-RC versions or with
any other model.
7.5 Operation principle
The ATS box has two operation modes, manual and automatic:
Manual mode: When ATS control box is in manual mode, the generator is not
automatically controlled.
- If there is power from the mains and the generator at the same time, the output power will be from the generator.
- If there is only generator power, the output power will be from the generator.
- If there is only mains power, the output power will be from the mains.
Automatic mode: The ATS box will control the generator. When there is
mains power, it will always be the priority output power and the generator
will remain on standby. When there is a mains power cut, the generator will
automatically start and supplies power.
In case of a mains power cut, the generator has 40 seconds to start with a
maximum of six start attempts during that time. If the engine fails to start
within 40 seconds, it falls in error mode and the FAILURE PILOT will light up
for a minute.
The stop of the generator also has a limit of 10 seconds. If the generator
does not stop within that time, the system will consider that there is a
shutdown failure and the FAILURE PILOTE will light up.
The PILOT FAILURE is only for informational purpose, it does not affect its
running.
When the mains power is supplying the devices, at the same time it is
supplying the battery of the generator with DC 14.4V. So that the optimal
level of the charge in the battery is guaranteed, even if the generator is on
standby for long periods of time.
7.6 Running
Manual mode:
- Turn and release the safety button.
- On the selector (6), select manual mode.
- Start the generator.
Automatic mode:
- Turn and release the safety button.
- On the selector (6), select automatic mode.
7.7 Diagram About fuel:
NOTE: Make sure that the generator starts at least every two months.
Otherwise perform a manual start and keep the generator running for a few
minutes to ensure that the fuel in admission circuit lines is renewed.
NOTE: If the generator is not used, or if is used very few times, make
sure that the same gasoline does not remain in the tank for more than a year,
otherwise replace it.
NOTE: If you are aware that the generator will not run for long periods,
choose to fill the tank completely. In contact with oxygen, the gasoline
accelerates its degradation. If the tank is completely full the degradation
will be slower. You can also add a gasoline stabilizer to delay the
degradation.
NOTE: Never, GENERGY will be responsible for personal or property damage
that may arise from the lack of supply due to a generator failure.
If you have any questions, contact us by spv@sg-group.es.
Photovoltaic automatic mode (CRETA SILENT SOL):
8.1 Introduction
The CRETA SILENT SOL model has been specifically designed to support a
solar system in exceptional cases where solar energy is not enough. The
generator is ready to start and support the photovoltaic system, as well as
stop when this support is no longer needed. The start and stop of the
generator is performed by a contact NO (Normally Open) sent by the solar
controller.
8.2 Installation
DANGER: The connection of the generator to the solar system must only be
carried out by the technician of the photovoltaic system, because it is
necessary to set parameters for start and stop the generator in the solar
controller.
NOTE: This diagram below is simply for reference and is only intended to
assist in the interpretation of its operation. The user is exclusively
responsible for the installation, which must be carried out in accordance with
the electrical regulations of each country or region. A Contact NO (Normally Open) to start and stop the
generator:
- Contact open: generator on standby
- Contact closed: generator starts and stays running until the contact reopens.
Please note that not all solar controllers are prepared to work with a
generator.
Check with your solar technician or with the supplier of the controller.
Start sequence: When the generator contact closes, the start attempt begins.
If this is unsuccessful, new attempts will be performed up to a maximum of
five. If the generator fails the five pre-programmed attempts, it will fall
into error mode.
B Generator battery support: The generator has a charging port on the
panel to recharge or to keep the battery charge. Connect the charger supplied
to the 230V mains socket and its DC 14V output to the port on the control
panel.
NOTE: Do not use a charger different of the original. If you have to
replace the original charger, purchase an original GENERGY.
C Use the 32A socket as power supply for the controller: This 32A socket
allows the maximum power output from the generator.
NOTE: Do not use one of the two 16A sockets for this purpose because the
power output will be limited to 16A (3680W).
About fuel:
NOTE: Make sure that the generator starts at least every two months.
Otherwise perform a manual start and keep the generator running for a few
minutes to ensure that the fuel in admission circuit lines is renewed.
NOTE: If the generator is not used, or if is used very few times, make
sure that the same gasoline does not remain in the tank for more than a year,
otherwise replace it.
NOTE: If you are aware that the generator will not run for long periods,
choose to fill the tank completely. In contact with oxygen, the gasoline
accelerates its degradation. If the tank is completely full the degradation
will be slower. You can also add a gasoline stabilizer to delay the
degradation.
NOTE: Never, GENERGY will be responsible for personal or property damage
that may arise from the lack of supply due to a generator failure.
If you have any questions, contact us by spv@sg-group.es.
Maintenance:
The purpose of the maintenance plan is to ensure that the generator remains in
good working condition and that it reaches the maximum of its useful life.
DANGER: Before doing any maintenance, turn off the engine. If you need to
start the engine for any checking, first ensure that the area is well
ventilated. The exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, which is poisonous to
the user.
NOTE: Apply only GENERGY original parts or, if not available, components
of proven quality.
Maintenance plan:
SERVICE | STAGES OF MAINTENANCE |
---|---|
Engine oil | Check the oil level before each use. After 20 hours, the first oil |
change should be made. Every 100 hours of use, do new oil changes.
Air filter| Check and clean every 50 hours. At a maximum of 250 hours or
earlier if it is damaged, replace it.
Spark plug| Clean and adjust the electrode every 50 hours. At a maximum of 250
hours or earlier if it is damaged, replace it.
Engine valves| Adjust every 500 hours
Combustion chamber | Clean every 500 hours
Fuel tank| Clean every 500 hours
Fuel hose| Replace every 2 years or earlier if it is damaged
NOTE: If you use the generator in places with a lot of dust or with high
temperatures, does more frequent maintenance.
NOTE: All services marked with an asterisk (*) should be performed by
GENERGY Service or a qualified service. You must save the report of the work
done by the technical service.
NOTE: The failure of compliance with the maintenance plan will shorten
the life of the generator and will increase the possibilities of malfunctions
or damages.
The warranty will not be applied in these cases. If one or more services
planned were not done, the warranty will not be applied, unless authorized by
the GENERGY Service or a GENERGY Authorized Service.
9.1 Oil change
- Keeps the engine running for 5 or 10 minutes, so that the oil can reach some temperature and decrease its viscosity (more liquid). In this way, it will be easier to extract it completely.
- Under the oil drain hole, place a suitable container to collect the used oil, according to image A.
- Unscrew the oil drain screw by turning it counter clockwise. Save the screw and its gasket.
- Remove the cap with the oil level, so that the engine receives air and expels the oil faster, according to image B.
- Turn the engine by pulling the starter rope smoothly. Thus, the oil housed in the moving parts of the engine can be extracted.
- Once all the engine oil has been extracted, put back the drain screw with its gasket. In case of spillages, clean.
- Refill with the recommended oil according to images B and C. For more information, review the chapter “Recharging the battery from the charging port” of this user manual.
9.2 Air filter maintenance
NOTE: The dirt in the air filter reduces the air flow in the carburettor,
limiting its combustion and promoting serious engine problems. Clean the air
filter regularly, according to the maintenance plan in this manual. In dusty
areas, filter cleaning should be more frequent.
NOTE: The generator should never run without the air filter, otherwise we
will have a quick engine wear.
WARNING: Do not use gasoline or solvents with a low flash point to clean
the filter. They are flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
- Rotate the filter cover and pull it out.
- Take out the filter cartridge.
- Clean the air filter using a soap and water solution. Let it dry completely.
- Gently strike the inner paper filter to remove the layer of dirt. Replace it if it is very dirty or you see that the motor loses power or works irregularly.
NOTE: The air filter is an essential part that affects equipment
performance and emissions. Any modification is forbidden.
Running the generator without an air filter or improperly installed will cause
severe wear and serious engine damage. In all these cases the total guarantee
of the machine would be annulled
9.3 Spark plug maintenance
Recommended spark plugs: TORCH F6RTC, NGK BP7ES, BOSCH WR3C.
-
Remove the cap of spark plug (B), pulling it out.
-
With a spark plug wrench (A) unscrew and remove the spark plug from the engine (turn it counter clockwise).
-
Visually check the spark plug. If the spark plug insulation is cracked or chipped, replace it with a new one. To clean dirt on the electrode, use a very thin wire brush.
-
Check the electrode distance with a calliper. The distance should be between 0.6 and 0.8mm. If it does not match, adjust it carefully.
-
Carefully put back the spark plug, starting its threading manually to avoid the damage of the thread.
With the spark plug fully threaded make a final tightening with a spark plug wrench, according to the following recommendations:
• New spark plugs: 1/2 turn
• Used spark plugs: 1/8 to 1/ 4 turn -
Put back the cap of the spark plug.
NOTE: The spark plug must be firmly tightened. An incorrectly fitted spark plug can heat up and even damage the engine. On the other hand, over- tightening can damage the spark plug and damage the thread of the cylinder head.
Transport and storage:
10.1 Generator transport
To avoid spillages of fuel during transport of the generator, the fuel
valve must be always closed and the generator must be tied (so that it does
not move).
NOTE: The generator must be transported in its natural working position.
Never transport the generator in other position (vertically or horizontally).
DANGER: Never start the generator inside of a transport vehicle. The
generator should only be used in good conditions of ventilation.
DANGER: When parked and with the generator inside, the transport vehicle
must not be exposed to the sun for a long time. Excessive temperature
increases (caused by the sun exposure) and will evaporate the gasoline and
after will promote an explosive environment inside of the vehicle.
WARNING: In case of transport, do not fill too much the fuel tank.
CAUTION: If the generator will be transported over rough roads or fields,
empty the fuel tank.
10.2 Generator storage
When stored for long periods of time, gasoline loses its properties and
creates waste, which can block the fuel path to the carburettor, making it
impossible to start. If the generator does not run for long periods of time
(2-3 months), it is necessary to extract all gasoline from the tank and
carburettor.
-
Remove all fuel from the tank with a suction pump and store it in a suitable container.
NOTE: Do not use normal plastic bottles, because some plastics decompose partially in contact with gasoline and become it contaminated. If reused, contaminated gasoline can damage an engine.
DANGER: Gasoline is explosive and flammable. During gasoline handling, never smoke or cause any spark or flame. -
Under the oil drain hole, place a suitable container to collect the drained gasoline.
-
Using a screwdriver unscrew the carburettor drain screw (A), the gasoline will start to flow through the carburettor drain hole (B). Once all gasoline is drained, retighten the drain screw.
-
Remove the spark plug (see chapter 9.3) and put directly into the cylinder, a teaspoon of clean engine oil (10 ~ 20ml). Smoothly, pull the starter rope of the engine, which will turn the engine and distribute the oil. Then, put back the spark plug
-
Slowly, pull the starter rope until you feel resistance. At this point, the piston is rising in its compression stroke and the admission and exhaust valves are closed. In this position, moisture cannot enter in the motor, which provides protection against internal corrosion.
Problem solving:
- If the engine does not start:
- Single-phase equipment (230V) connected to the generator does not work:
