FAQs

Can I use this generator inside a shed or garage?

No. This generator must only be used outdoors in well-ventilated areas to avoid the accumulation of dangerous exhaust fumes.

Does this generator produce clean power?

Yes, it produces pure sine wave power, which is safe for sensitive electronics like laptops and televisions.

How loud is the generator?

It operates at approximately 60dB(A), making it quiet enough for most campsite requirements.

What type of fuel should I use?

Use clean, fresh unleaded petrol.

What is the continuous power output?

The generator provides 3200W of continuous power with a 3400W maximum capacity.

Troubleshooting

Generator fails to start via push-button

Check if the lithium-ion battery is charged or use the manual recoil starter as a backup.

Engine shuts off unexpectedly

Check the oil level; the low-oil shut-off system will kill the engine if the level is too low.

No power output to devices

Check if the overload indicator is lit; if so, disconnect some devices and restart the generator.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Setup: Place the unit on a flat, level, and dry surface at least 3 meters away from buildings or tents to ensure proper ventilation. Add high-quality 4-stroke engine oil before the first start.
  2. Compatibility: The unit is compatible with 230V devices. Ensure the total wattage of connected appliances does not exceed the continuous power output of 3200W.
  3. Maintenance: Check oil levels before every use. Replace the air filter every 50-100 hours of operation depending on environmental dust conditions.
  4. Storage: If storing for more than 30 days, drain the fuel tank and run the engine until it stops to prevent carburetor gumming from stagnant fuel.
