5. Uputstvo za upotrebu

5.1 Pre-Start Checks

• Provjerite nivo motornog ulja.
• Provjerite nivo goriva.
• Ensure all electrical devices are unplugged from the generator.
• Provjerite da li je generator na ravnoj, stabilnoj površini, na otvorenom i dalje od bilo kakvih objekata.

5.2 Pokretanje motora

1. Okrenite ventil za gorivo u položaj 'UKLJUČENO'.
2. Pomaknite ručicu čoka u položaj 'ČOK' (ako je motor hladan).
3. Okrenite prekidač motora u položaj 'UKLJUČENO'.
4. Čvrsto i ravnomjerno povucite ručku startera dok se motor ne pokrene. Ne dozvolite da se uže povuče unatrag.

• Prekidač motora: Provjerite je li prekidač motora u položaju 'UKLJUČENO'.
• svjećica: Pregledajte svjećicu da li ima prljavštine ili oštećenja. Očistite je ili zamijenite ako je potrebno.

7.2 Nema izlazne snage

• Prekidači: Check if any circuit breakers on the control panel have tripped. Reset them if necessary.
• preopterećenje: Reduce the total load connected to the generator.
• Veze: Provjerite da li su svi kablovi za napajanje sigurno priključeni u utičnice generatora.
