CONNECTION
Before the generator can be connected to a build ing’s electrical system , a licensed electrician must
install an isolation (transfer)switch in the build ing’s main fuse box. The switch is the connection
point for generator power and allows selection of
generator or main line power to the building .This
will prevent the generator from charging the main
power line (back feeding)when the main power sup ply has failed or has been turned off for line repair.
backfeeding can electrocute or injure line mainte nance personnel. Also , generator and building
electrical system damage can occur when normal
operating power returns if unit is used without an
isolation switch.

Inverter and Petrol Frame Generators
Inverter and Petrol Framed generators are warranted to be free of defects in materials and
workmanship for two years from the original date of purchase. This limited warranty guarantees that
any defective parts will be repaired or replaced, at the discretion of SENCI UK.
Leisure Use
2 year limited warranty, provides parts, labour and return carriage for the first year and
parts only for the second year. Warranty period is effective as of the date of purchase.
Commercial Use
1 year / 1000 hours limited warranty, 90-day for hire/rental use, providing parts, labour and
return carriage. Warranty period is effective as of the date of purchase. N.B. Inverter
generators are not recommended for every day commercial use.
The warranty coverage is continual from the initial date of purchase and does not restart at anytime
under any circumstances. This limited warranty is valid only when the machine receives all necessary
preventative maintenance and servicing as described in the SENCI Owner’s Manual. The repair or
replacement of a machine will take place within a reasonable period of time during normal business
hours.
IMPORTANT – ALL PRODUCTS
In the event of a product failure, in the first instance, contact Senci UK. If it is established that the
fault is a warranty failure, we will arrange collection of the machine, (Highlands & Islands may incur
a surcharge), or authorise a local dealer repair. If it is found to be a non-warranty fault, the
customer will be charged.
If the machine is being returned, it is the customer’s responsibility to package the machine securely,
remove all fuel and oil and put the address label we supply by email to the package. It is advisable to
keep the original packaging for this purpose.
If fuel or oil is left in the machine, the courier we use to collect the machine may refuse to deliver. If
this happens, we may incur an additional redelivery charge, which will have to be passed onto the
customer.
Parts Only Supply
If the customer requests a part to be sent out under warranty, we must have photographic proof
that the old part has failed due to a manufacturing defect, or have the old part returned to us before
we send out the new part. If we are to send out a new part before we have either of these, it is to be
chargeable. When we receive the old part back, we will make a refund, if it is found that the old part
has failed due to a manufacturing defect.
