1. Safety information
WARNING
For the safety of the operator and others, make sure to use the
generator set with care.
Responsible operator:
WARNING
Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas. Inhalation
the exhaust gases can cause loss of consciousness and even lead to causing the
death.
If the generator is run in an unventilated place, the air that
breathing may contain a dangerous amount of exhaust gases. Therefore, make sure to
maintain good ventilation to prevent exhaust gases from accumulating.
WARNING
WARNING

The fuel can spill and ignite if the generator set is tilted or overturned.
Place the generator on a firm and level surface. Avoid sand or snow.
Avoid using the generator in a high-risk area.
Some parts of the combustion engine can be very hot. A mistake could result in
burns. Please be aware of the generator's warning labels.
Operators must be aware of self-protection when operating the generator.
please wear noise protective helmets, insulated boots, and protective gloves.
Operators must lock the doors to prevent unauthorized persons (especially
children) can have some mishap.

3.3 Refrigerant
WARNING
Do not open the radiator cap when the engine is still hot, otherwise the
Refrigerant can spill and cause severe burns.
Wait until the engine is cold, turn the radiator cap counterclockwise until it
stop. Do not press down while turning the cap. After any pressure
the remaining has been relieved, remove the cover by pressing down and again in the direction
counterclockwise.
Add enough liquid to fill the radiator, and reinstall the cap. Make sure to
adjust it securely. Fill the cooling plug to the MAX mark with the engine cold.

Refrigerant Recommendation
Use the specified high-quality ethylene glycol antifreeze. Mix the antifreeze
with low mineralization drinking water or distilled water. A 50/50 mixture of antifreeze.
ethylene glycol and water are recommended to provide the best descent performance
temperature and anticorrosion. A higher concentration of antifreeze decreases efficacy
of refrigeration and is only recommended if additional protection against freezing is
necessary. A concentration of antifreeze of less than 40% will not provide protection
suitable against corrosion.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The use of improper antifreeze, hard water, or salt water can cause damage due to
corrosion that will shorten the life of the engine.
Drain the water: if there is water mixed with oil, usually the fuel separator
water can separate the water, and it settles at the bottom of the cup. So we need to change
regularly. Release the water drain bolt, the water will drain from the tube.

Pay attention to the battery status indicators:
Blue: the battery is in good condition
Blanco: electricity is not enough, it needs to charge.

5. MANAGEMENT OF THE GENERATOR
WARNING
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Incorrect connections to the electrical system of a building can lead to the generation of
electricity in the reverse from the generator to the service lines, which can cause damage
seriously the generator and can cause fires.
FUNCTIONING INFORMATION
In some places, generators are required by law to register with the companies.
local regulations. Check the appropriate local registration regulations and procedures
of use,
NOTICE
To avoid an electric shock from defective devices, the generator must be
grounded. Connect the ground terminal of the generator to a grounding source
external.
OPERATION INFORMATION
Make sure that all appliances are in good working condition before
connect them to the generator. If a device begins to operate abnormally, it
it slows down, or stops suddenly, turn off the engine immediately. Disconnect the device
and determine if the problem is due to a device issue or an overload.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
17
Make sure that the appliances do not exceed the generator's rated power by more than 30.
minutes and that it never exceeds the maximum load capacity. A considerable overload
produce a short circuit. The localized overload may not produce a short circuit, but it
will shorten the lifespan of the generator.
Make sure to turn off the engine and remove the key from the engine switch before connecting the
the devices to the AC terminals.
Use cables of sufficient size or current ratings to connect the appliances to the
terminals C.A.
When connecting the cable to the output terminal (three-phase or single-phase), connect the other
extreme of the cable to the terminal and the screw on the screw. Do not touch the plugs or terminals,
while the generator is in operation.
Do not connect or disconnect the device when the AC circuit breaker is in the ON position.
if it cannot produce a short circuit or damage to the devices.
Do not connect the device to a different amperage or voltage than indicated, otherwise it may
damage the generator or the device.
