1. To prevent fire

Never add fuel to the fuel tank whilst the engine is running. Wipe away any spilt fuel
or oil with a clean cloth before operating. Keep explosives and any other flammable
products away from the machine at all times.

-To prevent fire and to provide adequate ventilation, keep the generator at least
one metre away from buildings and other equipment during operation.

- Operate the generator on level ground.

- Do not place the generator indoors whilst the engine is still hot.

2. To prevent inhaling exhaust fumes

Exhaust gas contains poisonous carbon monoxide which is harmful to health and can
kill. For this reason, never use the generator in a closed area or areas with poor
ventilation.

3. To prevent burns

The muffler and the engine body becomes very hot whilst the engine is running or
just after running. To prevent any burns, do not touch these parts during these
times.

4. Electric Shocks, Short Circuits

To avoid electric shocks or short circuits, do not touch the generator if your hands
are wet. This generator is not waterproof and should not be used in an area which is
exposed to rain, snow or water sprays. The use of this generator in a wet place can
cause short circuits and electric shocks during operation.

- The generator should be grounded to prevent electric shocks from faulty
appliances. Connect a length of heavy cable between the generator's ground
terminal and the and an external ground source.

- Do not connect tools or other appliances to the generator before it has been
started. If equipment is connected starting the generator may cause sudden
movements of the equipment, resulting in accidents or injuries. It may also damage
the alternator.

- Most electric motors require up to 3 times the rated wattage to start

- Do not exceed the specified current limit of any socket.

- Do not connect the generator to a household circuit of a house or building unless it is
through a mains/generator changeover switch

3. PREPERATION FOR STARTING

3.1 Selection and Handling of the fuel

 Selection of fuel

Only use standard specification diesel, this can be red or white

 Keep dust and water out of the fuel

When filling the fuel tank from drums, make sure that no dust or water is mixed in
with the fuel. This can cause serious damage to the fuel injection pump or the
injector nozzle.

 Do not overfill

Overfilling can potentially be very dangerous. Always leave a 25mm gap above the
fuel level.

- Refuel in a well ventilated area with the engine stopped.

- Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is refuelled or where
the fuel is stored.

- Do not overfill the diesel tank and make sure the filler cap is securely closed after
refuelling.

- Take care not to spill fuel when refuelling. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is clean
and dry before starting the engine.

3.2 Check and Refill the Engine Oil

- Always check the engine oil level with the generator on a flat, level surface before starting
or refilling the machine.

- If an insufficient amount of engine oil is used, damage to the engine may result. It is also
dangerous to overfill the engine with oil, as in extreme cases, the piston oil control ring
cannot cope with the excess oil and the engine oil that passes to the combustion chamber
above the piston rings can combust and the engine may over-rev highly with no throttle
control, causing severe damage.

This generator is equipped with a low oil pressure warning system. This system will stop the
engine automatically when the oil pressure falls below the minimum pressure required. This
