5. ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
ENGINE OIL: Check engine oil every time you use the generator. If low refill it.
Change engine oil after first month or after 20hrs operation and thereafter
every 3 months or 100 hours of operation, in both cases whichever is
sooner.
FUEL FILTER: Every 3 months check the fuel filter under the fuel cock for
debris and clean. Use a spanner to remove.
! CHECK ENGINE OIL. Operating without oil will cause severe engine damage
and invalidate the warranty.
4. GENERATOR OPERATION
WARNING
Always start generator before applying load by switching the
circuit breaker and stop the generator after disconnecting
load. Starting and stopping under load will damage the
generator and powered accessories.
!
output must only be used briefly or generator damage will occur.
! DC output to be used for charging automotive and solar 12V batteries only.
Ensure correct polarity when connecting cables, i.e. +ve to +ve and-ve to ve generator to battery terminals.
! Ensure the generator is properly earthed. Consult a qualified electrician if in
doubt.
Ensure the total load does not exceed the generator rating. Maximum power
3. ELECTRICAL CONECTIONS
WARNING
If the generator is to be connected for standby power use
ensure a qualified electrician is employed. The generator must
be isolated from the utility power when connected or serious
damage will result to the generator and house power circuits.
2. CONTROLS
All generators are fitted with the following:-
! 2 no 3 pin AC outlets, +ve and -ve DC connections.
! Engine on/off switch.
! Magnetic circuit breaker electric cutout.
! Voltmeter
