10 OPERATION
DANGER : Before operation : connect your generator to earth! This way you
will avoid static charges (possible electric shock) and will enable protective
devices to respond (e.g. leakage current trip switches) on the appliances
being connected.
Use a shielded conducting cable with a minimum cross-section of 1.5 mm² to connect your
generator to an earthing point (e.g. a water or heating pipe). Connect the conductor to the
earthing connection on your generator and tighten it securely.
CAUTION : The generator has been shipped without engine oil. Fill with oil
or it will not start.
