Connecting Consumers To The Generator; Switching Off The Engine; Cleaning, Maintenance And Storage - Matrix PG 3100 Traducción Del Manual Original

Important!
When starting with the reserve starter, the motor
may recoil suddenly as it starts up, resulting
in hand injuries. Wear protective gloves when
starting the equipment.

7.2 Connecting consumers to the generator

Connect the equipment you want to use to the
socket-outlets (3)
Important:
- Do not connect the generator to the domestic
power network as this may result in damage
to the generator itself or to other electrical
appliances in your home.
Note: Some electrical appliances (power jigsaws,
drills, etc.) may have a higher level of power
consumption when used in difficult conditions.

7.3 Switching off the engine

- Before you switch off the generator, allow it to
run briefly with no consumers so that it can "cool
down".
- Move the ON/OFF switch (10) to position "O".
- Close the petrol cock.
7.4 Overload cut-out for socket-outlets
Important! The generator is fitted with an
overload cut-out.
This shuts down the sockets (3). You can restart
the sockets (3) by pressing the overload cut-out
(5).
Important! If this happens, reduce the electric
power you are taking from the generator or
remove any defective connected appliances.
Important! Defective overload cut-outs must be
replaced only by overload cut-outs of identical
design and with the same performance data.
If repairs are necessary, please contact your
customer service center.

8. Cleaning, maintenance and storage

Switch off the motor and pull the spark plug boot
from the spark plug before doing any cleaning
and maintenance work on the equipment.
Important: Switch off the machine immediately
and contact your service station:
- In the event of unusual vibrations or noise.
- If the engine appears to be overloaded or
misfires.
8.1 Cleaning
- Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it
with compressed air at low pressure.
- We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished using it.
- Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning
agents or solvents; these could attack the plastic
parts of the equipment. Ensure that no water can
seep into the device.
8.2 Air filter (B9)
In this connection, please also read the service
information.
- Clean the air filter at regular intervals, and
replace it if necessary.
- Open both clips and remove the air filter cover.
- Remove the filter elements.
- Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or petrol to
clean the elements.
- Clean the elements by tapping them on a flat
surface. In cases of stubborn dirt first clean with
soapy water, and then rinse with clear water and
air dry.
- Assemble in reverse order.
8.3. Spark plug (B4)
Check the spark plug (item 18) for dirt and grime
after 20 hours of operation and if necessary clean
with a copper wire brush. Thereafter service the
spark plug after every 50 hours of operation.
