Add oil and restart.
5.3. OVERLOAD INDICATOR LIGHT (RED) 12
5.3.1. The overload indicator light 12 comes on when an overload of a connected electrical device is detected, the inverter control unit
overheats, or the AC output voltage rises.
5.3.2. The AC protector will trip, stopping power generation in order to protect the generator and any connected electric devices. The AC
pilot light 11 (Green) will go off and the overload indicator light 12 (Red) will stay on, but the engine will not stop running.
5.3.3. When the overload indicator light 12 comes on and power generation stops, proceed as follows:
Turn off any connected electric devices and stop the engine.
Reduce the total wattage of connected electric devices to within the rated output.
Check for blockages in the cooling air inlet and around the control unit. If any blockages are found, remove.
After checking, restart the engine.

current, such as a compressor or a submersible pump. However, this is not a malfunction.
5.4. AC PILOT LIGHT 11 (GREEN)
AC pilot light comes on when the engine starts and produces power.
5.5. DC BREAKER 8
The DC breaker turns to “OFF” automatically when electric device being connected to the generator is operating and current above
theratedows.
CAUTION:

DC breaker turns off again, stop using the device immediately and contact Sealey service.
5.6. ENGINE SMART CONTROL (ESC) 2
5.6.1. ON: When the ESC switch is turned to “ON”, the economy control unit controls the engine speed according to the connected load.
The results are better fuel consumption and less noise.
5.6.2. OFF: When the ESC switch is turned to”OFF”, the engine runs at the rated r/min(4500r/min) regard-less of whether is a load
connected or not.
Note: The ESC must be turned to”OFF” when using electric devices that require a large starting current, such as a compressor or a
submersible pump.
5.7. GROUND (EARTH) TERMINAL 5
Ground (Earth) terminal connects the earth line for prevention of electric shock. When the electric device is earthed, the generator
must also be earthed.
5.8. PARALLEL CONNECTIONS 4
5.8.1. Two units can be connected in parallel to boost output.
6. PREPARATION
NOTE: Ensure that Safety Section of this manual is understood and complied with before using the product.
6.1. FUEL
6.1.1. CheckSafetyinformationsectioncarefullybeforelling.

6.2. OIL LEVEL CHECK
NOTE: The generator has been shipped without engine oil. DO NOT start the engine until lled with the sufcient engine oil.
Recommended engine oil: SAE SJ 15W-40 Recommended engine oil grade: API Service SE type or higher
Engine oil quantity: 0.5 L
6.2.1. Place the generator on a level surface.

6.2.4. Screw the oil plug, installed oil service door and keep the knob to “CLOSE”.
6.3. PRE OPERATIONAL CHECKS
6.3.1. If any item in the Pre-operation check is not working properly, have it inspected and repaired before operating the generator.
NOTE: Pre-operation checks should be made each time the generator is used.
6.3.2. PRE-OPERATION CHECKS
Fuel: Check fuel level in fuel tank. Refuel if necessary.
Engineoil:Checkoillevelinengine.Ifnecessary,addrecommendedoiltospeciedlevel.
Check generator for oil leakage.
7. OPERATION
▲ DANGER! Never operate the engine in a closed area or it may cause unconsciousness and death within a short time. Operate the
engine in a well ventilated area.
7.1. Before starting the engine, do not connect any electric devices.
NOTE:Thegeneratorhasbeenshippedwithoutengineoil.Donotstarttheengineuntillledwiththesufcientengineoil.
8 DO NOTtiltthegeneratorwhenaddingengineoil.Thiscouldresultinoverllinganddamagetotheengine.
NOTE: The generator can be used with the rated output load at standard atmospheric conditions. “Standard atmospheric conditions”
Ambient temperature 25°C
Barometric pressure 100kPa
Relative humidity 30%
The output of the generator varies due to change temperature, altitude (lower air pressure at higher altitude) and humidity.
