Although the wind generator is basically a maintenance-free system,
we recommend visual inspections (see details on the operating status
table).
a)Is the system exhibiting operations listed on the “Operating Status
Table For example: the indicator lamp is green when the rotor is rotating
at a high speed(250-1000rpm), etc.
b)Are the blades free from damage?
c)Is there an approximate 3mm gap between the aluminum hub and the
front unit face?
d)Is any debris such as ice, snow, or tree branches jamming the turbines?
e)Is the joint on the tail moving smoothly?
f)Is the tail free from any minor damage?
WARNING CAUTION

If replacement is necessary, only use parts specified by Nature
Power. Use other parts could cause accidents or malfunction.
When strong winds blow, tree branches and other objects may
make contact with and damage the wind turbine, its support
pole, or its wiring. Continued use of the wind turbine when it is
damaged may cause electric shock, a serious accident, or
cause the turbine to cease functioning. Inspect all parts of the
wind turbine after periods of strong wind.
Do not place the wind generator body upside down or inclined
during installation or maintenance. Water (rain, snow) can leak
inside from the joint gap of the body and may cause damage to
the turbine. When the body is upside down or inclined and have
a possibility of getting wet, put a cover over the body to avoid
water.
