Full details

FAQs

Can I use the generator for both 230V and 400V at the same time?

No, the VTS system is designed to switch the output mode. You should use either the 230V or the 400V circuit depending on your equipment needs.

What maintenance should I track on the LED display?

The display tracks voltage, frequency, and total hours of operation; use the hours to determine when to perform routine oil and filter changes.

Does this generator come with wheels?

The standard package includes the generator; the transport kit (KS 10 KIT) including wheels and handles is available as an optional purchase.

How do I maintain the copper-wound alternator?

Keep the unit clean and dry. Ensure it is stored in a location free of excessive moisture to prevent oxidation.

What type of fuel should I use?

This generator uses standard unleaded petrol. Always use fresh fuel to ensure reliable performance.

Troubleshooting

Engine fails to start

Check fuel level, ensure the ignition switch is in the 'ON' position, and inspect the spark plug for fouling.

No power output at outlets

Verify the circuit breaker on the control panel is set to the 'ON' position and check the VTS switch setting.

Excessive vibration

Ensure the generator is on a level surface and check that all four rubber feet are securely installed and in good condition.
