8. Assembly / Before commissioning

The device is preassembled at the factory! Before commissioning Connect the battery (g. 5) Prepare battery and connect. Fit the battery (21) in the device using the battery at- tachment set (19). Now connect the red cable (+) and then the black cable (-) to the battery. m ATTENTION! Check before starting the engine:

• Check the fuel level, rell if necessary - the tank should be at least half-full

• Ensure the device has su󰀩cient ventilation

• Disconnect any connected electrical devices from the power generator

• The condition of the air lter,

• The condition of the fuel lines,

• The rm seating of the external screw connections, Attention! Fill the oil before rst use. Before each use, check the oil level with the engine switched o󰀨 and on a level surface. Use the highest quality four-stroke oil or an HD oil with the same level of quality. SAE 15W-40 is recommended for general use at all temperatures.w ww.practixx.com

230V~ sockets: The 230V~ sockets (17) are switch o󰀨 in the event on an overload. The 230V~ sockets can be reactivated by pressing the overload switch (18). 400V 3~ socket: The 400V 3~ socket (13) is switch o󰀨 in the event on an overload. The 400V 3~ socket can be reactivated by switching the overload switch (12) on.

• If the selector switch (11) is on the left, the 230V~ sockets can be used.

• If the selector switch (11) is on the right, the 400V 3~ socket is active.

• The power generator is suitable for 230 V~ and 400 V 3~ AC voltage devices.

• A 12V battery can be charged at the 12V DC con- nection (15). Use an adapter cable for this.

• Attention! The power generator is not suitable for being connected to a house mains as an emergency power supply. It can cause damage to the generator or other electrical devices. Shutting the engine o󰀨

• Allow the power generator to run for a short time without load before switching it o󰀨 so that the unit can “cool down”.

• Set the on/o󰀨 switch (7) to the “OFF” position using the key. Oil warning indicator (9) The indicator activates itself when the oil level is low and switches the engine o󰀨. As soon as the oil level is su󰀩cient, the engine can be restarted. Winter operation As the generator is driven by a diesel engine, special measures must be taken for winter operation. The use of “winter diesel” is required if operating the diesel gen- erator in outside temperatures of -3° to -10° Celsius. The switchover of the diesel fuel to “winter diesel” takes place mainly at the end of October, di󰀨ering from coun- try to country. Ask your lling station about the time to switchover to “winter diesel”.

• If the diesel generator is operated regularly, meas- ures do not need to be taken as the switchover to “winter diesel” takes place automatically.

• If the generator is not used for a long time in the autumn, but you want to reuse it in the winter, it is recommended to keep the tank almost empty. Earthing Earthing the housing is necessary to discharge stat- ic charging. To do this, connect a cable to the earth connection of the generator (14) on one side and to an external earth (e.g. earthing rod) on the other side.

• Check whether the mechanical power selection switch: (a) is engaged in the correct position.

• Important! The power selection switch is set at the factory and may not be changed.

• Set the on/o󰀨 switch (7) to the “ON” position using the key.

• Pull the choke (8) and turn the on/o󰀨 switch to “Start” using the key. Release the choke after approx. 5 seconds and the engine starts to run.

• When the engine is running, turn the on/o󰀨 switch back to the “ON” position.

• If the engine does not start up immediately (espe- cially after the tank was previously empty or after changing the diesel lter), repeat the start process by pulling the choke again. Note: Some electrical devices (motorised jigsaws, drills, etc.) can have high power consumption if they are used under di󰀩cult conditions. Some electric devices (e.g. TV devices, computers, etc.) may not be operated with a generator. In case of doubt, check with the man- ufacturer of your device. Overload protection The power generator is equipped with overload pro- tection. This deactivates the respective sockets in the event of an overload. Attention! If this situation occurs, reduce the electric power that you are drawing from the power generator or remove defective devices that are connected. Attention! Defective overload switches may only be replaced with identical overload switches with the same power data. Contact customer service for this. 12V DC connection: The 12V DC connection (15) is switch o󰀨 in the event on an overload. The 12V DC connection can be reacti- vated by pressing the overload switch (16).w ww.practixx.com

• Open the oil drain screw (c) and drain the warm engine oil into the collection container beneath the outlet drain.

• Fill engine oil up to the top marking on the oil dipstick

• Dispose of the used oil properly. Hand over your used oil at a collection point. Most lling stations, repair workshops or recycling centres take used oil back free of charge. Air lter Frequent cleaning of the air lter prevents carburettor malfunctions. Clean the air lter and change the air lter inserts

• The air lter must be cleaned every 30 operating hours.

• Remove the engine cover (g)

• Remove the air lter cover (h)

• Remove the lter element (23)

• Clean the lter element with soapy water, then rinse it with clean water and allow it to dry well before re- installation.

• The re-assembly takes place in reverse order m WARNING Do NOT use petrol or cleaning solvents with a low ash point to clean the air lter element. This could result in re or explosion. NOTE Never run the engine without an air lter or with a dam- aged air lter. This would allow dirt into the engine, which would result in severe damage to the engine. In this case, the seller and the manufacturer disassociate themselves from any warranty claims. Changing the diesel lter (g. 7) The diesel lter must be changed when the inside of the lter is contaminated or impurities can be seen. In order to change the lter and collect diesel in the tank, a funnel and an empty diesel container are required. Undo the metal bracket on both sides of the lter. Im- mediately insert the fuel hose through the funnel into the diesel canister and observe the diesel ow until no diesel drains. Remove the lter with impurities and throw it away. Install a new lter. Emptying the tank

• In order to empty the tank, rst proceed as you would when “Changing the diesel lter”. Ask your lling station about the time to switch over to “winter diesel” and ll the tank with “winter diesel” before use in outdoor temperatures from -3° to -10° Celsius.

• If, however, the diesel fuel “congeals”, the diesel generator must be brought into a room with temper- atures of approx. +10° Celsius for approx. 12 hours.

• If the tank is half full or full with normal diesel, then it must be emptied

• The tank must then be lled with “winter diesel”. If almost empty or up to half empty, it is su󰀩cient to ll up with “winter diesel”.

We recommend that you clean the device directly after every use. Clean the device at regular intervals using a damp cloth and a little soft soap. Do not use any cleaning products or solvents; they could attack the plastic parts of the device. Make sure that no water can penetrate the device interior.

m WARNING Before transport or parking indoors, allow the ma- chine’s engine to cool down to avoid burns and risk of re. If you want to transport the device, empty the tank be- forehand. Clean coarse dirt from the device using a brush or a hand brush.
