Buyers Guide

To choose the right portable generator, you should focus your attention mainly on three points:

• Usage. Decide which type of use should be your goal: home standby, long run, temporary run use.

• Tension. Consider if you need a single phase or a three phase

• Power. Determine how much power you need for the items you care about.

Please take safety precautions when running a portable generator. It is important not to run generators inside a home, garage or any enclosed space.

Before the first ignition, we recommend you to consult the instruction and maintenance manual and proceed as follows:

• Put the oil in the engine 

• Fill the tank with the fuel type indicated 

• Pull the air choke

• Pull the recoil handle (Only for the models with electrical start, it is necessary to connect the battery before turning the key or push the button.

The generator dimensions are strictly related to the quantity of power they are able to supply. To determine the right size, add up the total watts of all lights, appliances, tools, or other equipment you would like to connect simultaneously to the generator. Getting the right starting and running wattage of the devices, you intend to power is crucial for calculating the accurate power requirements. Normally, you will find this information in the identification plate or in the owner’s manual of each respective tool or electrical equipment.

The first thing you have to do is turning off all the connected tools and appliances and letting the generator set run for a few minutes to cool down. You should then stop the generator set by pressing the Start/On/Off switch in the OFF position and finally close the fuel valve.
