m WARNING!
Health hazard!
Inhaling petrol/lubricant vapours may lead to severe
health damage, loss of consciousness and, in extreme
cases, to death.
- Do not inhale petrol/lubricant vapours.
- Operate the device outdoors only.
NOTE!
Device damage
Using the device without or with too little engine and
gearbox oil can result in engine damage.
- Fill with petrol and oil before commissioning. The
device is supplied without engine and gearbox oil.
NOTE!
Environmental damage!
Spilled oil can pollute the environment permanently.
The liquid is highly toxic and can quickly lead to water
pollution.
- Fill/empty oil only on level, paved surfaces.
- Use a filling nozzle or funnel.
- Collect drained oil in a suitable container.
- Wipe up spilled oil carefully immediately and dis-
pose of the cloth according to local regulations.
- Dispose of oil as per local regulations.
m ATTENTION!
Check before operation
• Check all sides of the engine for oil or fuel leaks.
• Check the engine oil level.
• Check the fuel level – Fill with at least 7 litres of Su-
per E10 petrol.
• Check the condition of the air filter.
• Check the condition of the fuel lines.
• Look for signs of damage.
• Check that all protective covers are in place and all
screws are tightened.
• Ensure that the device is sufficiently ventilated.
• Make sure that the spark plug connector is attached
to the spark plug.
• Disconnect any connected electrical devices from
the power generator.

Earthing screw (5) (Fig. 1)
m Attention! Electric shock!
- Do not use bare wires for earthing.
- Power generator must be safely earthed.
28 | GB
Earthing the housing is necessary to discharge static
charging.
1.
To do this, connect a cable on one side to the
earthing screw (5) of the power generator and on
the other side to an external earth (e.g. earth rod).
8.2
Top up oil (Fig. 1, 3)
m Attention!
The power generator is delivered without engine
oil. Therefore, ensure that you add oil before start-
ing it up. Use 10W30 oil here.
Note:
Check the oil level regularly before commissioning. An
oil level that is too low can damage the engine.
The oil warning system is configured to avoid damage
to the engine due to a lack of oil in the crankcase.
Before the oil level in the crankcase can drop below
the safety level, the oil warning system automatically
cuts the engine off. If the oil warning system cuts the
engine off, refill the engine oil.
It is not possible to start the engine until the engine oil
has been filled.
1.
Place the device on a level, even surface.
2.
Unscrew the oil dipstick (9).
3.
Use an oil filling bottle (not included) to top up the
engine oil. Note the max. filling capacity of 600 ml.
Carefully fill the oil up to the lower edge of the fill-
ing port.
4.
Wipe the oil dipstick (9) with a clean, lint-free cloth.
5.
Screw the oil dipstick (9) back into the filler neck
until it reaches the stop.
6.
Pull the oil dipstick (9) out and read the oil level in
the horizontal position. The oil level must be be-
tween L (low) and H (high) on the oil dipstick (9).
7.
If the oil level is too low, repeat the process.
8.
Then screw the oil dipstick (9) in again.
8.3
Filling in fuel (Fig. 1)
m Attention!
The power generator is delivered without fuel. It is
therefore essential to fill with fuel before commis-
sioning.
1.
Unscrew the fuel filler cap (1).
2.
Use a suitable funnel (not included) to fill a maxi-
mum of 15 l of fuel into the fuel tank.
3.
Ensure that the fuel tank is not overfilled and that
no fuel is spilled. Always use a fuel filter insert.
Clean up spilled fuel immediately and wait until the
fuel vapours have evaporated (wipe dry).
