The generator, like any technique, subtly “feels” the attitude of the owner. Therefore, when operating, it is important to comply with some rules in order to extend the life of the device.
Immediately after extracting and inspecting the generator for damage, it is necessary to carefully study the instructions attached to it. Then you need to pour motor oil into the generator. It must be understood that it makes no sense to spare money for quality oil, since to fill the unit is not a very large volume of liquid. Experts recommend using motor oil. When using any oil, the temperature of the medium in which the generator is planned to be taken into account.
When refueling the fuel tank, it is necessary to use only unhealthy and high -quality gasoline. It is important to make sure that water did not get into it, as well as dirt and other extraneous substances. You can not use fuel additives with methanol. The octane number of gasoline used should not be lower than 87. Experts also do not recommend using 96 gasoline as fuel.
Before work, the generator is installed on a flat dry surface. If your generator is not equipped with a exhaust gas output system, then it is allowed to run it only on the street. The gasoline generator must be grounded. This is a prerequisite for safe operation, which should not be neglected, as this is the key to the preservation of your health.
Then they start an external inspection of the equipment, checking the reliability of the connections and the correctness of the power cables. The engine can be launched only after turning off all consumers who will be connected to the generator. Inspection of the equipment should be carried out before each inclusion of the unit, as well as after eight hours of continuous operation of the generator.
The basis of prolonged operation of the equipment is the correct run -in the ICE of the unit. Many claim that the generator cannot be loaded during the running -in. However, experts say that the first two hours of run-in must be provided at least 50%load. The prolonged operation of the generator must not be allowed without load or with minimal power. Every 4 hours when running in the oil, the oil level should be checked. It should be changed after 20 hours of operation.
Those who do not use the gasoline generator constantly should run it at least once a month for two hours at a 50%load. Periodic launches avoid the appearance of moisture condensate in the generator and engine, and also restore the oil film and reduce oxidation on electrical contacts. It should be understood that it is better to start the generator for two hours of non -stop work than to turn it on 10 times for 12 minutes.
