AVISO: Perigo de Monóxido de Carbono

Usar um gerador em ambientes fechados PODE MATAR VOCÊ EM MINUTOS. O escapamento do gerador contém monóxido de carbono. Este é um veneno que você não pode ver ou cheirar. NUNCA use dentro de uma casa ou garagem, MESMO SE as portas e janelas estiverem abertas. Use SOMENTE FORA e longe de janelas, portas e saídas de ar.

• Always operate the generator in a well-ventilated outdoor area.
• Mantenha crianças e animais de estimação afastados do gerador durante o funcionamento.
• Certifique-se de que o gerador esteja colocado em uma superfície nivelada.
• Do not refuel while the engine is running or hot. Allow the generator to cool before adding fuel.
• Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling fuel or performing maintenance.
• The generator is equipped with a CO Shield technology that automatically shuts down the engine if dangerous carbon monoxide levels are detected. Do not bypass this safety feature.

5.1 Adicionando Óleo do Motor

The generator is shipped without engine oil. You must add the correct amount of oil before first use.

1. Coloque o gerador em uma superfície nivelada.
2. Remove the side maintenance cover (usually secured by screws).
3. Locate the oil fill cap/dipstick. Remove it.
4. Using the provided oil funnel, slowly add 10W-30 engine oil until it reaches the upper mark on the dipstick. Do not overfill.
5. Replace the oil fill cap/dipstick and the maintenance cover.

5.2 Adição de Combustível

Use somente gasolina nova e sem chumbo com octanagem 87 ou superior.

1. Ensure the generator is turned OFF and has cooled down.
2. Unscrew the fuel cap located on top of the generator.
3. Carefully pour gasoline into the fuel tank. Do not overfill. Leave some space for fuel expansion.
4. Recoloque a tampa do tanque de combustível firmemente.

6. Instruções de operação

6.1 Iniciando o gerador

1. Ensure the generator is on a level surface and all electrical devices are disconnected.
2. Turn the Three-in-one Switch Knob to the 'CHOKE' position.
3. Pull the Starting Handle slowly until resistance is felt, then pull firmly and quickly.
4. Once the engine starts, slowly move the Three-in-one Switch Knob to the 'ON' position.
5. Allow the generator to run for a few minutes to warm up before connecting electrical loads.

6.2 Conectando Dispositivos

Once the generator is running and the Output Indicator light is green, you can connect your electrical devices.

• Plug your devices into the appropriate AC 120V 20A outlets or USB ports.
• Monitor the Overload Indicator. If it lights up, reduce the connected load to prevent damage.

6.3 Modo Eco

The Eco Mode switch allows the generator to automatically adjust engine speed to match the load, improving fuel efficiency and reducing noise levels. For optimal performance and fuel savings, engage Eco Mode when running lighter loads.

6.4 Operação Paralela

For increased power output, two compatible Redact inverter generators can be connected in parallel using a parallel kit (sold separately).

Figure 4: Parallel Operation Setup

1. Ensure both generators are turned OFF and cooled.
2. Connect the parallel cables to the designated parallel ports on both generators.
3. Start both generators individually as per Section 6.1.
4. Once both generators are running stably, they will operate in parallel, providing combined power output.

7. Manutenção

Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and reliable operation of your generator. Refer to the maintenance schedule in the full owner's manual for detailed intervals.

7.1 Manutenção Geral

• Verifique o nível de óleo do motor: Before each use, check the engine oil level and add if necessary.
