Safety information
WARNING!
► Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the safety instructions and other
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/
or serious injuries.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
– Before using the device for the first time, read the
operating instructions and pay close attention to
the safety instructions.
– The warning and safety signs on the appliance
provide important information for safe operation.
– In addition to the notices in these operating in-
structions, all general safety and accident prevention legislation must also be complied with.
– Keep plastic wrapping away from children.
There is a risk of suffocation!
■ No alterations or modifications may be made to
the power generator.
■ The manufacturer's preset speed must not be
changed. The generator or connected appliances
could be damaged.
■ RISK OF POISONING! Exhaust gases, fuels and
lubricants are toxic. Do not inhale exhaust gases.
■ FIRE RISK! Petrol and petrol vapours are highly
inflammable/explosive.
■ The power generator may not be used in unven-
tilated spaces or in highly inflammable environments. If the power generator is to be used in
well-ventilated rooms, the exhaust gases should
be led directly out into the open via an exhaust
hose.
■ Even when using an exhaust hose, toxic gases
can still be released. Due to the risk of fire, the
exhaust hose must never be aimed towards inflammable substances.
■ Never operate the power generator in rooms
containing inflammable materials.
■ HOT SURFACES! Risk of burns. Do not touch the
exhaust system or the drive unit.
■ Do not touch any of the moving or hot parts.
Do not remove any protective covers.
■ PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT! Use suitable hearing
protection when you are in the vicinity of the
appliance.
■ Only original parts may be used for maintenance
and accessories.
■ Repairs, installation and adjustment work may
only be carried out by authorised and qualified
personnel.
■ Protect yourself from electrical hazards.
■ Never touch the power generator with wet
hands. Use only suitably certified and labelled
extension cords (H07RN) outdoors.
■ When using extension cords, their total length
must never exceed 50 m for a 1.5-mm² cord or
100 m for a 2.5-mm² cord.
■ Never operate the power generator in rain or snow.
■ Always switch off the engine during transport
and refuelling.
■ Ensure that no fuel is spilt onto the engine or
exhaust pipe while refuelling.
■ Do not refuel or drain the tank in the vicinity of
open lights, flame or sparks. Do not smoke!
■ Set up the power generator in a safe, level location.
Turning, tipping or moving the appliance during
operation is forbidden.
■ Set up the power generator at least 1 m away
from walls or connected appliances.
■ Keep children away from the power generator.
■ Generators can be loaded up to their rated power
only under given operating conditions. If the
generator is not operated under the conditions
as described in ISO 8525 and if the engine or
generator cooling is impaired, e.g. as a result of
operation in confined spaces, the load must be
reduced.
The load must be reduced if the temperature,
altitude and/or humidity are higher than the
specified operating conditions.
■ 4 │GB
PGI 1200 B2
■ The values given in the technical data for sound
power level (LWA) and sound pressure level
(LpA) represent emission levels and are not necessarily safe working levels.
As there is a correlation between the emission
and exposure levels, this cannot be used reliably
to determine whether or not further precautions
may be required. Factors that influence the
current exposure levels of the worker include
the characteristics of the room, other sources of
noise, airborne noise, etc., such as the number
of machines and other neighbouring processes
and the period for which the operator is exposed
to the noise. The permissible emission level can
also vary from country to country. Nevertheless,
this information allows the operator to arrive at a
better assessment of the risks and hazards.
On a case-by-case basis, acoustic measurements
should be carried out after installation to determine
the sound pressure level.
■ If the use of highly volatile fuels as a starting aid
is appropriate, then proceed with extreme caution.
■ Ensure that any connected electrical appliances
(incl. power cord and plug connections) are not
defective.
■ Some parts of the combustion engine are hot and
can cause burns. Observe the warnings on the
generator.
Before use
Electrical safety
■ Electrical cables and connected appliances must be in fault-free condition.
Never connect the generator to the mains supply (socket). Keep the
length of the cables to the consumer as short as possible.
Earthing
■ It is necessary to earth the housing to dissipate static charges.
♦ To do so, connect one end of a cable to the earth connection
the power generator and the other end to an external earth connection.
CAUTION!
► Before first use, add engine oil (15W–40, approx. 0.25 l) and fuel
(regular unleaded petrol). Check the fuel and engine oil levels; top
up as necessary.
Provide adequate ventilation for the appliance. Ensure that the
ignition cable is connected to the spark plug
electrical appliance that is connected to the power generator.
Adding oil
■ Check the oil level before each use.
■ Do not use the appliance if there is no oil visible on the dipstick
■ Add oil as required. Use only engine oil (15W–40).
♦ Place the appliance on a flat and stable surface.
♦ Use the supplied screwdriver
♦ Remove all dirt from around the oil filling plug/dipstick
♦ Unscrew the oil filling plug
♦ Use the supplied oil filler funnel
♦ Use the dipstick
Unscrew the dipstick and wipe it clean with a cloth. Put the dipstick
back into the oil inlet without screwing it in. Pull the dipstick back
out and check the oil level.
♦ Check that the oil level is somewhere between the minimum and maxi-
mum levels (marked as L for low and H for high on the dipstick

).
■ Do not refuel during operation. Do not refuel
while someone is smoking nearby or if there are
open flames in the vicinity.
■ During operation in well-ventilated rooms, ad-
ditional measures must be taken to prevent fires
and explosions.
CAUTION!
► Use only lead-free standard petrol as fuel.► Stop the engine when refuelling.► Hot parts. Maintain a safe distance.
Adding fuel
CAUTION!
► Keep away from any sources of ignition!
► Refuel only in well-ventilated rooms or outside!
♦ Unscrew the filler cap
♦ Using the filler neck, add a maximum of 4.5l unleaded petrol to the tank.
Make sure that you do not overfill the tank and do not spill any petrol.
Use a fuel filter
♦ Wipe up any spilt petrol and wait until the petrol fumes have dissipated.
RISK OF IGNITION!
♦ Replace the filler cap
