STARTING YOUR GENERATOR
WARNING! Never start your generator without “earth”
stake attached or with electrical appliances or power leads
attached.
1. Ensure the ”Earth” stake and wire are attached, Pic. 8.
2. Turn the fuel cap breather lever clockwise to ON, Pic. 6.
NOTE: If fuel cap breather is not on the generator will not
operate correctly.
3. Turn choke to CLOSED / START by sliding the choke
lever to the right, Pic. 9.
4. Turn the engine/fuel tap anti-clockwise to ON, Pic. 10.
5. Hold down the generator firmly with one hand on the
frame, then pull the recoil starter slowly until engaged,
then pull briskly Pic. 11. This step may need to be
repeated until generator engine starts, this can take up
to about 12 pulls.
WARNING! Never pull the recoil once the engine has
started. Any damage caused will not be covered under
warranty.
6. Allow engine to run up to speed, this usually takes up to
about 10-30 seconds.
7. Turn the choke to OPEN / RUN by sliding to the left,
Pic. 12.
8. Check that the only illuminated light is the green output
power light. The generator will be running and ready
for use.
WARNING! Before connecting any electrical load to
the generator ensure that the load does not exceed the
maximum load as stated on the rating plate and also check
page 13 for extra details.
Ensure that the mains supply lead is long enough to reach
the generator without any strain.
STOPPING YOUR GENERATOR
WARNING! Never stop your generator with electrical
appliances or power leads attached. Always remove power
leads and appliances before stopping your generator.
WARNING! In case of emergency, the easiest way to stop
the generator is to directly turn engine/fuel lever to
OFF position.
Avoid doing so in non-emergency circumstances as it
carries the risk of damaging the generator.
1. Ensure all power leads and appliances have been
switched off and disconnected from the generator
power socket.
2. Allow generator to run for 2-5 minutes, this allows the
generator to cool down.
3. Turn the engine/fuel lever to OFF, Pic. 13.
