TRANSPORT THE GENERATING SET
Before transporting the generating set make sure that the engine
switch is set to "STOP". During transport, always keep the generating
set level and the fuel shut-off valve closed to avoid any risk of leakage
of fuel.
STORAGE FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD
1. Ensure that the storage area is not damp or dusty.
2. Drain the fuel contained in the tank
3. Drain the carburettor by loosening the drain plug [1]
and collect the petrol in an approved container.
4. Change the engine oil
5. Remove the spark plug and tip a spoonful of clean
engine oil into the cylinder. Turn the engine gently
using the recoil starter, in order to spread the oil out,
and
stop
the
(compression): this closes off the inlet and exhaust
valves.
6. Clean and cover the generating set.
NOTE:
Environment protection: Contaminated petrol is a
major source of pollution for the environment. It is
therefore strongly recommended that it should be placed
in a sealed container and taken to a service station or
waste disposal plant for recycling. Petrol must not be
disposed of along with household waste, poured onto
the ground, or poured into sewers or rainwater drains.
FUEL STORAGE
• Ensure that you use containers or drums specifically
designed for hydrocarbons [1]. This will prevent
polluting the fuel through the dissolution of the
container walls, which will lead to poor functioning of
the engine.
• The warranty does not cover a blocked carburetor or
valves jammed by old or polluted fuel.
• The quality of unleaded petrol alters very quickly (2 to
3 weeks in some cases). Do not use fuel more than 1
month old. Store the absolute minimum required for
your monthly consumption.
