7. Cleaning, maintenance, storage
and ordering of spare parts
Switch off the motor and pull the spark plug boot
from the spark plug before doing any cleaning
and maintenance work on the equipment.
Notice! 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
7.1 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. En-
sure that no water can seep into the device.
7.2. Air fi lter (Fig. 18)
•
The air filter should be cleaned after every 30
hours of operation.
•
Open the 2 screws (5a) and remove the air
filter cover (Fig. 5B).
•
Remove the filter element (Fig. 6-18).
•
Clean the filter element with soapy water,
rinse with clear water and leave to dry well
before re-installing.
•
Assemble in reverse order
7.3. Spark plug (Fig. 7)
Check the spark plug for dirt and grime after 10
hours of operation and if necessary clean with a
copper wire brush. Thereafter service the spark
plug after every 50 hours of operation.
•
Pull off the spark plug boot with a twist.
•
Remove the spark plug with the supplied
spark plug wrench.

7.4 Changing the oil and checking the oil le-
vel (before using the machine)
The motor oil is best changed when the motor is
at working temperature.
•
Only use motor oil (15W40).
•
Place the generator on a slightly inclined sur-
face so that the oil drain plug is at the lower
end.
•
Open the oil filler plug.
•
Open the oil drain plug and let the hot engine
oil drain out into a drip tray.
•
After the old oil has drained out, close the oil
drain plug and place the generator on a level-
surface again
•
Fill in engine oil up to the top mark on the oil
dip stick (approx. 0.6 liters).
•
Important: Do not screw the dipstick in to
check the oil level, simply insert it up to the
thread.
•
Dispose of the waste oil properly.
7.5 Automatic oil cut-out
The automatic oil cut-out responds if there is too
little oil in the engine. In this case it will not be
possible to start the engine or it will cut out auto-
matically after a short period of time. It cannot be
started again until the engine oil has been topped
up (see point 7.4)
7.6 Storage
Notice! If you fail to follow these instructions
correctly, deposits may form on the interior of the
carburetor which may result in the engine being
more diffi cult to start or the machine suff ering per-
manent damage.
1. Carry out all the maintenance work.
2. Drain the fuel out of the tank (use a conventi-
onal plastic petrol pump from a DIY store for
this purpose).
3. When the fuel has been drained, start the en-
gine.
4. Allow the engine to run at idling speed until it
stops. This will clean the remainder of the fuel
out of the carburetor.
5. Leave the machine to cool (approx. 5 minu-
tes).
6. Remove the spark plug (see point 7.3).
7. Clean the exterior housing of the machine.
8. Store the machine in a cold, dry place where
it is out of the reach of ignition sources and
infl ammable substances.
