In accordance with the ISO standard, the specified symbols as shown in the following table are used
for the products and this instruction manual.
Read the operator’s instruction manual.
Stay clear of the hot surface.
Exhaust gas is poisonous.
Do not operate in an unventilated room.
Stop the engine before refueling.
Fire, naked flame and smoking prohibited.
Caution, risk of electric shock.

Do not operate the generator near gasoline or gaseous fuel because of the potential
danger of explosion or fire.
Do not fill the fuel tank with fuel while the engine is running. Do not smoke
or use a naked flame near the fuel tank. Be careful not to spill fuel during
refueling. If fuel is spilt, wipe it off and let dry before starting the engine.
Do not place inflammable near the generator. Be careful not to place fuel, matches, gunpowder,
oily cloths, straw, trash, or any other in flammables near the generator.
Do not operate the generator inside a room, cave, tunnel, or other insufficiently ventilated area.
Always operate it in a well-ventilated area, otherwise the engine may
become overheated, and the poisonous carbon monoxide gas contained
in the exhaust gases will endanger human lives. Keep the generator at
least 1 meter (3 feet) away from any structure or building during use. If
the generator must be used indoors, the area must be well-ventilated and
extreme caution must be taken regarding the discharge of exhaust gases. Failure to follow the
correct procedures can be fatal.
Do not enclose the generator nor cover it with a box. The generator has a built-in forced air cooling
system, and may become overheated if it is enclosed. If generator has been covered to protect it
from the weather during non use, be sure to remove it and keep it well away from the area during
generator use.
Operate the generator on a level surface. It is not necessary to prepare a special foundation for
the generator. However, the generator will vibrate on an irregular surface, so choose a level place
without surface irregularities. If the generator is tilted or moved during operation, fuel may spill
and/ or the generator may tip over, causing a hazardous situation. Proper lubrication cannot be
expected if the generator is operated on a steep incline or slope. In such a case, piston seizure
may occur even if the oil level is above the minimum level.
Pay attention to the wiring or extension cords from the generator to the connected
device. If the wire is under the generator or in contact with a vibrating part, it may
break and possibly cause a fire, generator burnout, or electric shock hazard.
Replace damaged or worn cords immediately.
Do not operate in rain, in wet or damp conditions, or with wet hands. The operator may suffer
severe electric shock if the generator is wet due to rain or snow.
If the generator is wet, wipe and dry it before starting. Do not pour water directly over
the generator, never wash it with water.

GB
Be extremely careful that all necessary electrical grounding procedures are followed during each
and every use. Failure to do so can be fatal.
Do not contact the generator to a commercial power line. Connection to a commercial
power line may short circuit the generator and ruin it or cause electric shock hazard.
Use the transfer switch for connecting to domestic circuit. In the special case
where the generator will be connected as stand by to the commercial network, the
installation must be carried out by a qualified electrician taking into account the
technical specifications of the generator and the commercial network.
No smoking while handling the battery. The battery emits flammable hydrogen gas,
which can explode if exposed to electric arcing or a naked flame. Keep the area well-
ventilated and keep naked flames/sparks away when handling the battery.
Engine becomes extremely hot during and for some time after operation.
Keep combustible materials well away from generator area. Be very careful
not to touch any parts of the hot engine especially the muffler area or
serious burns may result.
Keep children and all bystanders at a safe distance from work areas.
It is absolutely essential that you know the safe and proper use of the
power tool or appliance that you intend to use. All operators must read,
understand and follow the tool/appliance owners manual. Tool and appliance
applications and limitations must be understood. Follow all directions given
on labels and warnings. Keep all instruction manuals and literature in a safe
place for future reference.
Use only «Homologated» extension cords according to CEI 245-4. When a tool or appliance is
used outdoors, use only extension cords marked «For Outdoor Use». Extension cords, when not
in use should be stored in a dry and well ventilated area.
Always switch off generator’s circuit breaker and disconnect tools or appliances when not in use,
before servicing, adjusting, or installing accessories and attachments.

Before checking or refilling oil, be sure generator is located on stable and level surface with engine
stopped.
•
Remove oil filler cap (a) and check the engine oil level.
•
If oil level is below the lower level line (c), refill with suitable oil (see table) to upper level line (b). Do
not screw in the oil filler cap when checking oil level.
UPPER LEVEL
0,6 L
1,0 L
1,2 L
•
Change oil if contaminated (See ‘‘How-To’’ Maintenance).
Use class SE (API classification) oil or a higher grade oil according to the table below.
or is recommended for general, all temperature use. If single viscosity oil is used, select the
appropriate viscosity for the average temperature in your area.

GB
Do not remove the fuel tank cap while the engine is running. Do not refuel
while smoking or near naked flame or other such potential fire hazards.
Otherwise fire accident may occur.
Check fuel level at fuel level gauge (standard
with large fuel tanks). If fuel level is low, refill with
unleaded automotive gasoline. Be sure to use the
fuel filter screen on the fuel filter neck.
