• Inspect for any shipping damage. Contact your dealer immediately if damage is found.
• Ensure all included components, such as the maintenance tool kit, are present.

4.2 Додавање моторног уља

The generator is shipped without engine oil. You must add the correct amount and type of oil before starting.

• Поставите генератор на равну површину.
• Locate the oil fill cap/dipstick (refer to Figure 3.3 for location).
• Одврните и извадите поклопац за пуњење уља/мерну шипку.
• Slowly add the recommended engine oil (e.g., SAE 10W-30) up to the upper mark on the dipstick. Do not overfill. The oil capacity is approximately 0.4 liters (13.5 fl oz).
• Чврсто вратите поклопац за пуњење уља/мерну шипку.

4.3 Додавање горива

Use fresh, unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Do not use E85 or mixed fuels.

• Уверите се да је генератор на равној површини и да је мотор искључен и хладан.
• Одврните поклопац за гориво.
• Пажљиво сипајте бензин у резервоар за гориво, избегавајући препуњавање. Оставите мало простора за ширење горива.
• Чврсто вратите поклопац горива. Одмах обришите просуто гориво.

4.4 Уземљење генератора

For safety, the generator must be properly grounded. Consult a qualified electrician or local electrical codes for specific grounding requirements.

• Connect a heavy-gauge copper wire from the generator's grounding terminal to a suitable ground source, such as a ground rod driven into the earth.

5. Руковање генератором

5.1 Покретање мотора

• Уверите се да је генератор на равној површини и у добро проветреном спољашњем простору.
• Make sure no electrical devices are connected to the outlets.
• Окрените вентил за гориво у положај „УКЉУЧЕНО“.
• If starting a cold engine, move the choke lever to the 'CHOKE' position. For a warm engine, set it to 'RUN'.
• Turn the Start/Run/Stop dial to the 'START' position.
• Чврсто повуците ручицу стартера док се мотор не покрене.
• Once the engine starts, slowly move the choke lever to the 'RUN' position (if used).
• Оставите мотор да се загреје неколико минута пре него што повежете електрична оптерећења.

5.2 Повезивање електричних уређаја

• Уверите се да генератор ради глатко.
• Plug your electrical devices into the appropriate AC 230V or USB outlets.
• Do not exceed the generator's rated running wattage (1800 watts) to prevent overload. Monitor the digital display for power output.
