Care, maintenance and repair
8.4 Switching off the generator
Step 1: Disconnect or interrupt all electricity consumers
supplied by the generator.
Step 2: Disconnect the mains plug(s) of the electrical
loads from the generator.
Step 3: Let the motor run unloaded for 2-3 minutes and
then switch off directly on the motor by actuating
the switch-off device. This guarantees good coo-
ling.
For generators with electric start, set the starter
switch to "OFF".
Step 4: Close the fuel tap.

Care, maintenance and repair
9.1 Care by cleaning
The generator must always be kept in a clean condition.
All plastic parts and painted surfaces should be cleaned
with a soft, damp cloth and some neutral cleaner.
Remove excess grease or leaked oil with a dry, lint-free
cloth.
Always keep the cooling fins clean and free.
ATTENTION!
The generator should be started at least once every
seven days and be allowed to run at least 30 minu-
tes. If this cannot be done and the unit must be sto-
red for more than 30 days, use the following
information as a guide to prepare it for storage.
- Empty the fuel tank, start the generator and let it run
until all fuel is used up and the generator stops.
- Cover the cooled generator and protect it from
moisture.
- See chapter "Storage" for further measures
ATTENTION!
After the motor has been switched off, it still emits
heat, so sufficient ventilation should be provided
even after the generator has been switched off.
ATTENTION!
- All cleaning, care, maintenance and repair work
may only be carried out with the generator switched
off.
- Always disconnect the spark plug connector from
the spark plug.
- No electricity consumer may be connected to the
generator.
- Wait until the hot parts have cooled down.
- Never clean the machine with a water jet or flam-
mable products!
- Before putting the generator back into operation,
make sure that it is completely dry.
NOTE!
The warranty does not cover parts of the generator
that have been misused or negligently handled by
the operator. For full warranty coverage, the opera-
tor must operate the generator as described in the
manual.
Regular adjustments must be made to ensure pro-
per operation of the generator. Follow the instructi-
ons in the "Maintenance schedule"
ATTENTION!
Never use strong cleaning agents to clean of the pla-
stic parts or painted surfaces. The surface may be
loosened and consequential damage may occur.
Use protective gloves!
NOTE!
Never use strong cleaning agents for any cleaning-
work. This can damage or destroy the device
