7.1 Replace the spark plug.
1. Disconnect the spark plug cap (F1).
2. Use a dry air spray to clean the spark plug wells.
3. Use a spark plug spanner to unscrew the spark plug (A18-F2) and discard it.
4. Fit a new spark plug in position and tighten it by hand to avoid damaging the threads.
5. Use a spark plug spanner to tighten the spark plug by 1/2 turn after it is seated to compress the washer.

8 Technical specifications

8.1

Operating conditions

The stated outputs of the generating sets are obtained under the reference conditions outlined in ISO 8528-1(2005):
Total barometric pressure: 100 kPa - Ambient air temperature: 25°C (298 K) - Relative humidity: 30%.
Generating set performance is reduced by approximately 4% for every additional 10° C and/or approximately 1% for every
additional 100m in altitude. Generating sets can only operate while stationary.
8.2 Capacity of the generating set
Before connecting and operating the generating set, calculate the electrical power required by the devices to be used (in watts)*. To
ensure optimal operation, the total wattage of devices used at the same time must be:
- greater than 60% of the generating set's rated load (risk of overload);
- less than the generating set's rated load during continuous operation (risk of overload).
If the generating set is run under or over its rated load frequently or for long periods of time, it can start to wear very quickly.
Damage caused in this way will not be covered by the warranty.
*This load is usually indicated in the technical specifications or on the device manufacturer's plate. Some devices require a higher
load when starting. This minimum required power must not exceed the generating set's maximum power.
Check that:
The devices to be used have not been
connected prior to starting.
YES
The spark plug is in good condition and
correctly connected.
YES
The oil level is correct.
YES
The fuel level is correct.
YES
The fuel tap(s) is/are open.
YES
Maintenance has been correctly
performed on the generating set
components.
YES
Have the generating set checked by
one of our agents*.
The circuit breaker(s) has/have been
tripped.
YES
The connected devices and their power
cords are not faulty.
YES
Have the generating set checked by
one of our agents.
Solutions to be applied:
Disconnect the devices then try to restart
the generating set.
NO
Check the spark plug.
NO
Top up with oil.
NO
Fill up with fuel.
NO
Open the fuel tap(s).
NO
Perform maintenance on the generating
set in accordance with the
NO
recommendations
Check the capacity of the generating set
NO and press the circuit breakers.
Try with another device and another power
NO
cord.
