To prevent fire, move the generator at least 4 meters away from the area for filling with fuel.

Make sure that the fuel cap is tightly closed before starting.

Do not keep petrol in the tank for a long time.

While using or transporting the generator, make sure you keep the generator upright,

otherwise the fuel may escape from the carburetor or the fuel tank.

Electrical safety

Before each use ensure that the load to be connected does not exceed the power of the current
produced by the generator.

To avoid electric shock, you must follow the following instructions:

Do not touch the generator with wet hands.

Do not run the generator under rain or snow.

Do not run the generator near water.

Connect the generator to earth. Use a sufficiently thick conductor for the earth wire.

Do not operate the generator in parallel with another generator.

If using electrical extensions, make sure that they are sufficiently thick to transport the current
and that they are used correctly.

The connection of a generator used for auxiliary power to the electrical installation of a

building must be performed by a qualified electrician, and in conformity to the provisions of the
applicable laws and norms in the field of electricity. Incorrect connections will cause leakage of
the current from the generator into the lines of the public electricity company. Such leakage
could electrocute the workers of the public electricity company working on the network or other
persons in contact with the line during a power cut. Also, when the public power supply is re-
established, the generator can explode, catch fire or generate fires in the building’s electrical
installation.

Before connecting electrical devices to the generator, make sure that their voltage

specifications and frequency of functioning correspond to the technical characteristics of the
generator. There may be damage if the device connected is not designed to function with a
voltage tolerance of +/- 10% or a frequency tolerance of +/- 3 % compared with those of the
generator.
