4.3. Switching off (diagram A)
Warning
When the generating set is switched off, the motor continues to give off heat.
Suitable ventilation should be provided after the generating set is turned off.
To stop the generating set in an emergency, turn the On/Off switch to off "O".
n Disconnect the plugs and allow the motor to run with no load for 1 to 2 minutes.
o Turn On/Off switch (10) to Off "O", the generating set switches off.
p Close fuel tap (14) (horizontal position).
5. Safety features (if fitted, see specifications table)
5.1. Oil cut-out
This mechanism is designed to prevent any damage to the motor resulting from lack of oil in the motor sump. It automatically cuts out
the motor. If the motor stops and will not restart, check the motor oil level before looking for any other cause of the problem.
5.2. Circuit breaker
The electrical circuit of the set is protected by several magnetothermal, differential or thermal cut-out switches. Any overload and/or
short circuits cause the supply of electrical energy to be cut.
6. Maintenance schedule
6.1. Reminder of use
The maintenance interval frequency and the operations to be carried out are outlined in the maintenance programme.
However, it should be added that it is the environment in which the generating set is operating which determines this programme.
Accordingly, if the set is used in extreme conditions, shorter intervals between maintenance procedures should be adopted.
These maintenance schedules apply only to generating sets running on fuel and oil, that conform to the specifications given in this
booklet.

7. Maintenance procedures
7.1. Cleaning the air filter (diagram E)
Danger
Never use petrol or solvents with a low flash point for cleaning the air filter element as this could result in a fire or
explosion.
n Undo the four 10 mm bolts holding right-hand side panel (1) in place and remove the latter.
o Undo both bolts (2) holding cover (3) in place and remove them.
p Detach the cover from locking tabs (4) and remove cover (3) at the side.
q Remove prefilter assembly (5), mounting component (6) and filter (7), then separate the components.
r Prefilter (5):
Wash the prefilter in soapy water. Wipe it dry carefully and soak it in clean engine oil. Wipe off the excess oil with a clean cloth.
Replace the prefilter if it is very dirty or damaged.
s Filter (7):
Lightly tap the filter against a flat surface to remove the dirt. Replace the filter if it is very dirty or damaged.
t Refit following the reverse procedure to removal.
u Refit the right-hand side panel and ensure that it is held in place.
