4. Opsætning
4.1. Udpakning og inspektion
- Carefully remove the generator from its packaging.
- Inspect the unit for any signs of damage that may have occurred during shipping. Contact your dealer immediately if damage is found.
- Sørg for, at alle komponenter, der er anført på pakkelisten, er til stede.
4.2. Wheel and Handle Assembly
The generator is equipped with a driving device (wheels and handles) for easy transport. Follow the instructions provided in the separate assembly guide or diagrams to attach the wheels and handles securely.
4.3. Påfyldning af motorolie
- Placer generatoren på en plan overflade.
- Locate the oil filler cap/dipstick.
- Remove the cap and slowly add the recommended engine oil (refer to specifications for oil type and capacity) until it reaches the upper mark on the dipstick. Do not overfill.
- Sæt oliepåfyldningsdækslet sikkert på igen.
4.4. Adding Diesel Fuel
- Ensure the generator is turned off and cool.
- Åbn brændstoftankens dæksel.
- Carefully pour clean diesel fuel into the tank, using a funnel to prevent spills. Do not fill above the maximum level indicator. The tank capacity is 16 liters.
- Luk brændstoftankens dæksel forsvarligt. Tør straks spildt brændstof op.
5. Betjeningsvejledning
5.1. Kontroller før drift
- Kontroller motoroliestanden.
- Tjek brændstofniveauet.
- Ensure the generator is on a level, stable surface.
- Verify that all circuit breakers are in the 'OFF' position before starting.
5.2. Starting the Generator (Electric Start)
- Drej brændstofventilen til 'ON'-positionen.
- Hvis motoren er kold, skal du flytte chokerhåndtaget til 'CHOKE'-positionen.
- Insert the key into the ignition switch and turn it to the 'START' position. Release the key once the engine starts.
- Once the engine has warmed up (after a few seconds), gradually move the choke lever back to the 'RUN' position.
- Allow the generator to run for a few minutes before connecting any electrical loads.
5.3. Stopping the Generator
- Afbryd alle elektriske belastninger fra generatoren.
- Lad generatoren køre i et par minutter uden belastning for at køle af.
- Drej tændingsnøglen til positionen 'OFF'.
- Drej brændstofventilen til 'OFF'-positionen.
5.4. Tilslutning af elektriske belastninger
- Ensure the generator is running stably before connecting devices.
- Plug your electrical devices into the appropriate 230V, 400V, or 12V sockets.
- Turn the circuit breakers on the control panel to the 'ON' position.
- Do not exceed the generator's rated output (5000 Watts). Overloading will trip the circuit breaker and can damage the generator or connected devices.
6. Vedligeholdelse
Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and optimal performance of your generator. Always ensure the engine is off and cool before performing any maintenance.
- Dagligt/før hver brug: Check engine oil level, check fuel level, inspect for any leaks or loose connections.
