IMPORTANT

Remove the oil dipstick/filler plug (A – 2 & B - 2) by unscrewing it, and wipe the dipstick.

Insert the oil dipstick/filler plug in the filler neck (B - 3) without tightening it, then take it out again.

Check the level and top up if necessary.

Retighten the dipstick/filler plug fully in the filler neck.

Check that there are no oil leaks, and wipe away any traces of oil with a clean cloth.
OR


Check that there are no oil leaks, and wipe away any traces of oil with a clean cloth.
3.3. Checking the fuel level and topping up
DANGER
Storage and handling of petroleum products must be carried out in accordance with the law. Use only clean fuel without any water. Do
not use E15, E20 or E85 fuel. Do not overfill the tank (there should not be any fuel in the filler neck).

Position the generating set on flat, level ground.

Close the fuel tap (A – 6).

Unscrew the fuel tank cap (A – 4).

Visually check the level of fuel. If necessary, fill up without removing the screen filter, using a funnel and taking care to prevent fuel
spillage.

Carefully retighten the fuel tank cap and clean away any traces of fuel using a clean cloth.
3.4. Check the condition of the air filter Quad clean
Never use petrol or flammable solvents to clean the air filter element (risk of fire or explosion when starting the
generating set).
Running the engine under normal running conditions with the cover designed for cold weather conditions can
cause damage.
CAUTION
Do not use compressed air on a paper element.

Lower the cover lugs (C – 1) for the Quad clean air filter (A - 7) and remove the hooks from underneath the base stops. Remove
the cover (C - 2)

Remove the pre-filter (C - 4) from the paper element (C - 3).

Visually check the condition of the pre-filter and the paper element.

Clean or replace the element if necessary (see § Cleaning – Replacing the air filter).

Fit the paper element on the base. Fit the pre-filter on the paper filter element

Place the air filter cover in the normal running position (sun facing outwards) (C - 5) or the cold weather position (snowflake facing
outwards) (C - 6). Insert the hooks underneath the base stops. Lift the lugs to secure the cover.
Before starting the generating set, always check the oil level. If the generating set was used beforehand,
leave the generating set to cool for at least 30 minutes before checking the oil level.
Top up the tank with the recommended oil (see § Specifications) using a funnel.
RISK OF EXPLOSION
The fuel is highly flammable and its vapours are combustible.
Filling should be carried out with the engine switched off and cold. Smoking, using a
naked flame or producing sparks are forbidden while the fuel tank is being filled.
