5 Once the engine is started (manually or electric) wait for a few seconds and
then introduce the choke completely (air intake open). The engine will begin
working stably and is ready to have equipments plugged in.
If the generator stops and doesn't start again, first verify the oil level.
NOTE: Do not leave the choke in an intermediate position, the blend would
be too rich and the engine would not work properly.
Carburetor alteration for high altitude operation
In high altitudes, the normal air-fuel blend in the carburetor would be too rich.
Performance would decrease and fuel consumption would increase. A very rich
blend would also dirty the spark plug and make startup difficult.
If the generator is always running in an altitude above 1,000 meters, get in
touch with an authorized service to modify the carburetor (this service is not
warranty, therefore it would be quoted).
The generator's output power of 230V will vary depending on the altitude and
other elements such as humidity and temperature, se chapter on environmental
correction of this manual.
NOTE: If the carburetor has been modified to operate at great altitude, the
air-fuel blend would be too poor to work in low altitudes. Operation at low
altitudes may cause the engine to overheat and be seriously damaged. It would
be necessary to return the carburetor to its original state.
