5.3.7 Cleaning the generating set
The generating set must be cleaned regularly to ensure correct operation. If the generating set is installed inside, always check that
the installation is clean and in good condition. Generating sets used outdoors (building sites, dusty, muddy or wooded
environments, corrosive atmosphere, etc.) must be cleaned more frequently.
Never wash the generating set with a high pressure cleaner.
Apply an anti-rust product to the damaged parts; any major scratches must be repaired (please contact your
nearest agent).
IMPORTANT
1.
Clean the engine and alternator air inlets using a dry brush.
2.
Using a slightly damp sponge, clean the metal parts (chassis, side plates, etc.) of the generating set and dry using a dry
cloth.
3.
Check that the generating set is in a good general condition (no leaks, bolts, fittings, hoses tightened, etc.).
4.
Replace any faulty parts (only use original parts and consult an agent if necessary).
6 Transporting and storing the generating set
6.1
Transport and handling conditions
Before transporting the generating set, check that the bolts are correctly tightened, close the fuel tap (if fitted) and disconnect the
battery (if fitted). The generating set should be transported in its normal operating position; never lay it on its side. A pump unit
should be handled gently and brusque movements should be avoided. Ensure that the place where it is to be stored or used is
carefully prepared beforehand.
6.2
Storage conditions
Drain the fuel:
1.
Set the switch to OFF (A7).
2.
Unscrew the fuel tank cap (A3) and remove the screen filter (A4)
3.
With a suitable container in place, use a manual siphon pump to collect the fuel from the tank.
4.
Put the screen filter back inside the tank and carefully screw the cap back onto the fuel tank.
5.
Start the generating set (cf. § Start the generating set) and leave it running until it runs out of fuel.
6.
Set the switch to OFF.
7.
With a suitable container and a funnel to hand, unscrew the fuel drain screw (C5).
8.
After draining, retighten the drain screw and close the fuel tap (A5).
Grease the cylinder and valves:
9.
Remove the spark plug (A18-F2) (cf. § Replace the spark plug) then, via its aperture, pour in approx. one teaspoon of new
engine oil.
10. Refit a new spark plug in its place.
11. Pull the starter-recoil reel handle (A8) several times to distribute the oil inside the cylinder.
Store the generating set:
12. Clean the generating set.
13. Cover it with a protective cover and store it in its normal position, in a clean, dry and well ventilated area.
This procedure for storing the generating set or protecting it over the winter must be respected if the generating set is not used for a
period of up to 1 year. For longer periods of storage, it is recommended to contact your nearest agent or to start up the generating
set for a few hours every year, and respect the storage procedure after doing so.
