3. Preparation before use
3.1. Positioning the generating set for operation
Choose a site that is clean, well ventilated and sheltered from bad weather. Place the generating set on a flat, horizontal surface which
is firm enough to prevent the set sinking down (under no circumstances should the set tilt in any direction by more than 10°). Store the
additional supplies of oil and fuel within close proximity, whilst maintaining a certain distance for safety.
3.2. Earthing the generating set
The generating sets supply electrical current when in operation: risk of electrocution.
Connect the generating set to the ground at each use.
Dange
To connect the set to the ground: Attach a 10 mm
2
copper wire to the set’s earth connection and to a galvanised steel earthing rod
driven 1 meter into the ground.
3.3. Checking the oil level
Before starting the generating set, always check the engine oil level.
Top up with the recommended oil (see § Characteristics) using a funnel, up to the top limit of the gauge.
Important
n Remove the oil filler gauge plug (fig. A - No. 2 & fig. B - No. 2) by unscrewing it, and wipe the gauge.
o Insert the oil filler gauge plug into the filler neck (fig. B - No. 3) without screwing it, then remove it.
p Visually check the level and top up if necessary.
q Screw the oil filler gauge plug back fully into the filler neck.
r Wipe off excess oil with a clean cloth, check that there are no leaks.
