7.3 Connecting consumers to the generator
Connect the equipment you want to use to the socket-
outlets (3/4)
Important:
- These sockets may be loaded continuously (according
S1value) and temporarily (according S2 value).
- 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.
7.4 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 (12) to position "O".
- Close the petrol cock.
7.5 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 (3/4) by pressing the overload cut-out (7).
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.

8.1 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.

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 (Fig. 17)
