power generator.
2)
The manufacturer's preset speed must not be
changed. Power generators or connected devices
may be damaged.
3)
Danger of poisoning! Exhaust gases, fuel and
lubricants are poisonous, exhaust gases may not
be inhaled.
4)
Fire risk! Petrol and fuel vapours are highly flam-
mable and explosive.
5)
Motor exhaust gases are toxic. The power gener-
ator must not be operated in unventilated rooms. If
the generator is to be operated in well-ventilated
rooms, the exhaust gases must be discharged di-
rectly outside via an exhaust gas hose. Additional
requirements for protection against fire and explo-
sion must also be observed. Toxic exhaust gases
can also escape when operating an exhaust hose.
Because of the risk of fire, the exhaust hose must
never be directed at flammable materials.
6)
Never operate the power generator in rooms with
highly flammable substances.
