• Push the choke lever (13) back after starting the en-
gine.
Warm state
• Set the on/o󰀨 switch (10) to the “ON” position
• Turn the tank ventilation (1) to the “ON” position.
• Turn the fuel valve (11) to the “ON” position.
• Use the start pull cord (12) to start the engine; to do
so, pull the handle forcefully. If the engine does not
start, pull on the handle again.
m ATTENTION! This socket may be loaded with 1000 W
continuously (S1) and with 1020 W for a short time (S2)
for a maximum of 5 minutes.
Note: Some electrical devices (motorised jigsaws, drills,
etc.) can have high power consumption if they are used
under di󰀩cult conditions.
Switch o󰀨 the engine (Fig. 1)
Allow the power generator to run for a short time with-
out load before switching it o󰀨 so that the unit can “cool
down”.
• Set the on/o󰀨 switch (10) to the “OFF” position.
• Close the fuel valve (11).
Connection to alternating current (AC)
• Allow the generator to run for a few minutes before
connecting electrical devices.
• Do not exceed the load capacity of the generator by
connecting more electrical devices than the device
can handle.
• Do not switch on electrical devices until they are con-
nected to the generator.
Tip: If the generator is connected to several loads or
power consumers, please remember to connect the one
with the highest starting current rst. and the one with
the lowest starting current last.
Overload indicator (6)
The overload protection becomes active if the power
consumption is too high and switches o󰀨 the 230 V
socket (4).
• Switch the device o󰀨.
• Reduce the total wattage of the connected electrical
devices to the rated power.
• Check the air lter for contamination. If contamina-
tion is detected, remove it. (see air lter)
• Put the device back into operation.
• Fill storage tank with fuel.
• Close the tank by turning the tank cover (2) clock-
wise.
Recommended fuel
Only unleaded regular petrol with a research octane
rating of 91 or higher is required for this engine.
m Only use fresh, clean fuel.
Water or impurities in the petrol damage the fuel sys-
tem.
m Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the en-
gine stopped. If the engine was in opera-
tion immediately before, allow it to cool rst.
Never refuel the engine in a building where the
fuel vapour may come into contact with ames or
sparks.
Petrol is highly inammable and explosive. When
handling fuels, you may su󰀨er burns or other se-
vere injuries.
• Switch o󰀨 the engine and keep it away from heat,
sparks and ames.
• Only refuel outdoors.
• Mop up spilled petrol immediately.
Earthing (Fig. 1)
Earthing the housing is necessary to discharge static
charging. To do this, connect a cable on one side to the
earth terminal (8) of the power generator and on the oth-
er side to an external mass rising pipe (e.g. rod earth).
10. Start up
m Attention!
Always make sure the device is fully assembled
before commissioning!
Start the engine (g. 1)
m ATTENTION! When starting with the start pull cord
(12), injuries to the hand can occur due to sudden kick-
back. Wear protective gloves for starting.
Cold state
• Set the on/o󰀨 switch (10) to the “ON” position.
• Turn the tank ventilation (1) to the “ON” position.
• Carefully push the choke lever (13) to the right as far
as it will go.
• Turn the fuel valve (11) to the “ON” position.
• Use the start pull cord (12) to start the engine;
to do so, pull the handle forcefully. If the en-
gine does not start, pull on the handle again.
