1. Informazzjoni Importanti dwar is-Sigurtà

Aqra u ifhem dan il-manwal kollu qabel ma tħaddem il-ġeneratur. Jekk ma ssegwix l-istruzzjonijiet, dan jista' jirriżulta fi korriment serju jew mewt.

• Periklu tal-Monossidu tal-Karbonju: Il-ġeneraturi jipproduċu monossidu tal-karbonju, gass bla kulur, bla riħa u velenuż. Ħaddem il-ġeneratur barra f'żona ventilata sew, 'il bogħod mit-twieqi, il-bibien u l-ventijiet. Qatt m'għandek tħaddem ġewwa jew fi spazji magħluqa.
• Sigurtà Elettrika: Never operate the generator in wet conditions. Ensure all electrical connections are secure and properly grounded. Do not overload the generator.
• Sigurtà tal-Fjuwil: Gasoline is highly flammable. Always refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine off and cool. Do not smoke or allow open flames near the generator. Store fuel in an approved container.
• Operazzjoni Ġenerali: Keep children and pets away from the generator during operation. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE). Ensure the generator is placed on a level surface.

3. Gwida ta' Setup

3.1 Disimballaġġ

1. Oħroġ il-ġeneratur mill-imballaġġ tiegħu bir-reqqa.
2. Spezzjona għal xi ħsara waqt it-tbaħħir. Ikkuntattja lin-negozjant tiegħek immedjatament jekk issib ħsara.
3. Kun żgur li l-komponenti kollha inklużi huma preżenti.

3.2 Żieda taż-Żejt tal-Magna

The generator is shipped without engine oil. Operating without oil will cause severe engine damage.

1. Poġġi l-ġeneratur fuq wiċċ livell.
2. Sib l-għatu/l-istikka tal-mili taż-żejt.
3. Neħħi d-dipstick u imsaħha nadif.
4. Add recommended engine oil (e.g., SAE 10W-30) to the crankcase until the oil level reaches the upper mark on the dipstick. Do not overfill.
5. Erġa' poġġi l-għatu/l-istikka tal-mili taż-żejt sew.

3.3 Żieda tal-Fjuwil

Uża biss gażolina friska u bla ċomb b'klassifikazzjoni tal-ottan ta' 87 jew ogħla.

1. Kun żgur li l-ġeneratur ikun MITFI u berred.
2. Mexxi l-ġeneratur f'żona ta' barra b'ventilazzjoni tajba biex timlieh bil-fjuwil.
3. Ħoll it-tapp tal-fjuwil.
4. Carefully pour gasoline into the fuel tank, up to the fill limit (approximately 13 liters). Do not overfill.
5. Erġa’ poġġi l-għatu tal-fjuwil sew. Imsaħ kwalunkwe fjuwil imxerred immedjatament.

4. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

4.1 Starting the Generator (Recoil Start)

1. Kun żgur li l-ġeneratur ikun fuq wiċċ livellat u li t-tagħbijiet elettriċi kollha jkunu skonnettjati.
2. Dawwar il-valv tal-fjuwil għall-pożizzjoni 'ON'.
3. Mexxi l-lieva taċ-ċowk għall-pożizzjoni 'ĊOKE' (jekk il-magna tkun kiesħa).
4. Dawwar is-swiċċ tal-magna għall-pożizzjoni 'ON'.
5. Grasp the recoil starter handle firmly and pull it slowly until resistance is felt, then pull quickly and smoothly. Repeat until the engine starts.
6. Ladarba tibda l-magna, mexxi l-lieva taċ-ċowk bil-mod għall-pożizzjoni 'RUN'.
7. Ħalli l-magna tisħon għal ftit minuti qabel ma tqabbad it-tagħbijiet elettriċi.

4.2 Twaqqif tal-Ġeneratur

1. Skonnettja t-tagħbijiet elettriċi kollha mill-ġeneratur.
2. Ħalli l-ġeneratur jaħdem għal ftit minuti mingħajr tagħbija biex jiksaħ.
3. Dawwar is-swiċċ tal-magna għall-pożizzjoni 'MITFI'.
4. Dawwar il-valv tal-fjuwil għall-pożizzjoni 'OFF'.

4.3 Konnessjoni ta' Apparati Elettriċi

• Kun żgur li l-ġeneratur qed jaħdem b'mod stabbli qabel ma tqabbad l-apparati.
• Plug your 230V AC devices into the AC outlets.
• Għal iċċarġjar ta' 12V DC, qabbad it-tagħmir tiegħek mas-sokit ta' 12V DC.
• Do not exceed the generator's rated power output (3.2kW continuous, 3.4kW max).

4.4 ECO Throttle System

The ECO throttle system automatically adjusts engine speed to match the load, reducing fuel consumption and noise levels. For maximum power or when starting high-load devices, it may be necessary to switch the ECO throttle OFF.

4.5 Protezzjoni ta' Tagħbija Eċċessiva

The generator is equipped with an overload protection system. If the generator is overloaded, the circuit breaker will trip, and power output will stop. Reduce the load and reset the circuit breaker to restore power.

3. Wash the element in warm, soapy water, rinse, and allow to air dry completely.
4. Lightly oil the foam element with engine oil, then squeeze out excess oil.
5. Erġa' installa l-element tal-filtru u l-għatu.

5.3 Spark Plug

Inspect the spark plug every 100 hours of operation. Replace if necessary.

1. Neħħi l-għatu tal-ispark.
2. Uża spark plug wrench biex tneħħi l-ispark plug.
3. Check for carbon deposits or wear. Clean with a wire brush if needed.
4. Check the spark plug gap (refer to specifications for correct gap).
5. Erġa' poġġi l-ispark plug u l-għatu.

5.4 Filtru tal-Fjuwil

Inspect the fuel filter periodically and replace if clogged or damaged. Refer to the service manual for detailed instructions.

5.5 Ħażna

For extended storage (more than 30 days):

• Ixxotta t-tank tal-fjuwil u l-karburatur.
• Add a fuel stabilizer if draining is not possible.
• Ibdel iż-żejt tal-magna.
• Clean the generator thoroughly.
