7. PRECAUTIONS IN SALES PROMOTION
In the interest of promoting the safest and most efficient use of the Models E 43, E 60 and E 71 Generators by all
of our customers, it is very important that at the time of sale the salesperson carefully ensures that the buyer
seriously recognizes the importance of the contents of the Handling Instructions, and fully understands the
meaning of the precautions listed on the Caution Plates attached to each unit.
7-1. Handling Instructions
Although every effort is made in each step of design, manufacture and inspection to provide protection against
safety hazards, the dangers inherent in the use of any generator cannot be completely eliminated. Accordingly,
specific precautions and suggestions for the use of the generator are listed in the Handling Instructions to
enhance the safe and efficient use of the tool by the customer. Salesperson must be thoroughly familiar with the
contents of the Handling Instructions to be able to offer appropriate guidance to the customer during sales
promotion.
7-2. Thorough Instruction to the Customers
(1) HITACHI electronic controlled products should not be used with portable generators.
Irregular generator power could cause these products to fail. Regarding other manufacturer's products, please
contact the manufacturer to see if it is safe to use the electronic controlled products with portable generators.
(3) Each generator has AC receptacles as shown in the table below.
(2) There is no oil in the engine crankcase when the generator is shipped. You must add oil before starting the
engine. Check the oil level before each use with the generator on a level surface and the engine stopped.
Engine oil is a major factor affecting engine performance and
service life. Non-detergent and 2-stroke oils will damage the engine
and are not recommended. Use 4-stroke motor oil that meets or
exceeds the requirements for API service classification SJ or SL.
Always check the API SERVICE label on the oil container to be sure
it includes the letters SJ or SL. SAE 10W-30 is recommended for
general, all-temperature use. Other viscosities shown in the right
graph may be used when the average temperature in your area is
within the indicated range.
Note that each of the above current values means the maximum current for one receptacle.
