8.3 Generating set identification
The generating set's identification plate is affixed inside one of the skirts or on the chassis.
Example of an identification plate
(A): Model (H): Current amperage
(B): CE/GOST marking
(if applicable)
(I): Current frequency
(C): Guaranteed acoustic
power level
(J): Current voltage
(D): Maximum power (K): Protection rating
(E): Rated power (L): Reference standard
(F): Power factor (M): Serial number
(G): Earth
Serial numbers will be required when requesting troubleshooting advice or spare parts.
For your records, please enter the generating set and engine serial numbers below.

*Oil cut-out: If there is no oil in the engine sump or if the oil pressure is low, the oil cut-out automatically stops the engine to prevent any damage. If
this occurs, check the engine oil level and top it up if necessary before looking for any other cause of the problem.
**Circuit breaker: The genset's electrical circuit is protected by one or more magnetothermal, differential or thermal cut-out switches. In the event of
an overload and/or short circuit, the supply of electrical energy may be cut.
If necessary, replace the circuit breakers in the generating set with circuit breakers with identical nominal ratings and specifications.
8.5 Recommended fuel quality
Using fuel which does not comply with the following specifications exposes the equipment to irreversible damage not covered under
warranty:
- Clean, high-quality fuel: ensure that the petrol used does not contain any water, and that it is fresh and clean (not out-of-
date or contaminated).
- Octane rating: minimum octane rating of 87 (R+M)/2 or minimum octane rating of 90 (RON = Research Octane Number)
- Blends: it is permitted to use unleaded petrol containing up to 10% ethyl alcohol (France: SP95-E10). It is not permitted to
use unleaded petrol containing less than 90% petrol, e.g. E15, E20 or E85. Blends of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) and
unleaded petrol are approved (up to a maximum of 15% MTBE by volume).
