3. Nhazi na Nkwadebe mbụ

Before starting the generator for the first time, perform the following steps:

  1. Mwepu na nyocha:

    Carefully remove the generator from its packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage. Report any damage to your dealer immediately.

  2. Tinye mmanụ igwe:

    The generator is shipped without engine oil. Fill the engine crankcase with the recommended oil (e.g., SAE 10W-30) to the upper mark on the dipstick. Do not overfill. The low oil level shut-off system will prevent the engine from starting or running if the oil level is too low.

    Close-up of the generator engine with a yellow warning sticker indicating low oil level system.

    Image 1: Low Oil Level System. This image shows a close-up of the generator's engine area, highlighting a yellow warning sticker that indicates the presence of a low oil level shut-off system. This system is crucial for protecting the engine from damage by automatically stopping operation if oil levels are insufficient. Ensure proper oil filling before use.

  3. Tinye mmanụ ụgbọala:

    Fill the fuel tank with fresh, unleaded petrol (gasoline). Do not use old or contaminated fuel. Do not overfill; leave space for fuel expansion. The fuel tank capacity is 15 liters.

    WARNING: Do not refuel while the engine is running or hot. Avoid spilling fuel.

  4. Ndokwa:

    Place the generator on a firm, level surface outdoors in a well-ventilated area, away from combustible materials and at least 1 meter (3 feet) from buildings or other equipment.
