5 Transport, packaging, storage
Delivery
Check the generator on delivery for any visible transpor-
tation damage. If you notice any damage to the device
please report this immediately to the carrier or dealer.
Transport
During transport, the generator must be well secured so
that it cannot fall; drain the fuel and ensure that no acid
or vapours leaking from the battery (if available). For
transport on road vehicles, check the entire mass of the
machine. Never start the generator inside a vehicle.
Transport with a forklift/lift truck:
For transport with a sufficiently dimensioned lift truck or
forklift truck, the generator must be secured with bolts on
a flat, firm surface (e.g. on a pallet).
Packaging
All used packaging materials and packaging aids are re-
cyclable and should be taken to a materials recycling de-
pot to be disposed of.
The delivery packaging is made of cardboard, so please
dispose carefully by having it chopped up and given to
the recycling collection.
The film is made of polyethylene (PE) and the cushioned
parts of polystyrene (PS). These materials should be
taken to a collection point for recyclable materials or to
the local waste disposal company.
Storage
Store the generator thoroughly cleaned in a dry, clean
and frost-free environment. Generators must not be
stacked on top of each other. Also no other objects may
be placed on them.
To avoid motor problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. For the pe-
trol motor it is important to empty the carburetor pan: ol-
der petrol residues damage the parts that come into con-
tact with them through deposits.
ATTENTION!
Only transport the generator with an empty fuel tank!
The spark plug connector must be disconnected.
The generator may only be transported in an upright
position!
NOTE!
Observe the weight of the machine when transporting
and lifting. The transport and lifting equipment must
be able to carry the load.
NOTE!
The generator should be protected from humidity.
Tips and recommendation
For longer transports, make sure that the corrosion
protection is intact or renewed if necessary.
ATTENTION!
The generator should be started every seven days at
the latest and run for approx. 30 minutes. If this is not
possible and the generator is out of service for more
than 30 days, appropriate measures should be taken
to ensure proper storage.
ATTENTION!
It is important to avoid deposits from forming in
essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor,
fuel hose or tank during storage. Also, experience
indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol,
ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture, which
leads to separation and formation of acids storage.
Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of a motor
while in storage.
ATTENTION!
Petrol is highly flammable and explosive under cer-
tain conditions. Do not smoke or produce sparks in
the immediate environs.
