2. Informazioni importanti sulla sicurezza

WARNING: Read and understand all safety precautions before operating this generator. Failure to follow instructions can result in serious injury or death.

• Pericolo di monossido di carbonio: Generators produce carbon monoxide, an odorless, colorless gas that can kill you. Operate the generator outdoors only and far away from windows, doors, and vents.
• Rischio di incendio: La benzina è altamente infiammabile. Effettuare il rifornimento in un'area ben ventilata, a motore spento e freddo. Non fumare durante il rifornimento.
• Rischio di scossa elettrica: Non utilizzare il generatore in condizioni di umidità. Assicurarsi che tutti i collegamenti siano ben saldi e asciutti.
• Arresto per basso livello dell'olio: The generator is equipped with a low oil safety shutoff to prevent engine damage. Always check oil levels before starting.
• Avvertenza sulla Proposta 65: Questo prodotto può esporvi a sostanze chimiche tra cui monossido di carbonio e benzene, note allo Stato della California come causa di cancro e difetti alla nascita o altri danni riproduttivi. Per maggiori informazioni vai su www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

4. Impostazione

4.1 Preparazione iniziale

1. Posizionamento: Position the generator on a flat, level surface outdoors, away from any combustible materials, and ensure adequate ventilation.
2. Aggiungere olio motore: Remove the oil fill cap/dipstick. Add the recommended amount and type of engine oil (SAE 10W-30) until it reaches the upper mark on the dipstick. Do not overfill.
3. Aggiungere carburante: Ensure the generator is off and cool. Unscrew the fuel cap and carefully fill the tank with fresh, unleaded gasoline. The fuel capacity is 1.06 gallons. Do not overfill.

4.2 Procedura di avvio

1. Turn the PowerDial to the "START" position.
2. Se il motore è freddo, spostare la leva dello starter in posizione "CHOKE".
3. Tirare con decisione la maniglia dell'avviamento a strappo finché il motore non si avvia.
4. Una volta avviato il motore, riportare lentamente la leva dello starter in posizione "RUN".
5. Turn the PowerDial to the "RUN" position.

5. Istruzioni per l'uso

5.1 Collegamento degli elettrodomestici

Once the generator is running, you can connect your 120V AC appliances to the outlets. Ensure the total wattage dei dispositivi collegati non superi la potenza di funzionamento del generatoretage (1600 Watt) o potenza di avviamentotage (2000 Watt).

Modalità operative 5.2

The iQ2000 offers three operating modes to optimize performance and fuel efficiency:

• Modalità Turbo: Use for items requiring higher power outputs.
• Modalità standard: Suitable for intermediate load requirements.
• Modalità economica: Recommended for loads requiring minimal power output to reduce noise and fuel consumption.

5.3 Monitoring Operating Status

The generator's dashboard provides several indicators:

• PowerBar: Continuously displays the wattage produced by the generator.
• Electronic Fuel Gauge: Shows the remaining fuel level.
• Run-time Remaining Display: Indicates how much time is left before refueling is required.
• Indicatori di stato: Alerts for low fuel, low oil, overload, and overheating.

5.4 Funzionamento in parallelo

For larger power requirements, two iQ2000 units can be connected in parallel using an optional Parallel Kit (Model 6877, sold separately). This nearly doubles the available power output.

5.5 Spegnimento del generatore

To turn off the generator, turn the PowerDial to the "STOP" position.

6. Manutenzione

Una manutenzione regolare garantisce la longevità e le prestazioni ottimali del tuo generatore.

• Cambio dell'olio: Refer to the full owner's manual for the recommended oil change schedule. Always use SAE 10W-30 oil.
• Carburante: Use fresh, unleaded gasoline. Consider using a fuel stabilizer, especially for storage, to prevent fuel degradation and carburetor issues.
• Filtro dell'aria: Regularly inspect and clean or replace the air filter as needed.
• Candela: Check and clean or replace the spark plug periodically.
• Magazzinaggio: For extended storage, ensure the fuel system is properly drained or treated with stabilizer, and the engine oil is changed.

7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Generac iQ2000 generator.

• Il motore non si avvia:
  • Controllare il livello del carburante.
  • Ensure the PowerDial is in the "START" position.
  • Verify the choke is correctly set for cold starting.
  • Check engine oil level; the low oil shutoff may be activated.
  • Controllare che la candela non sia sporca o danneggiata.
• Engine Runs but No Power Output:
  • Check for an overload alarm. Reduce the load and reset if necessary.
  • Ensure the PowerDial is in the "RUN" position.
• Engine Hunts or Surges at Idle:
  • This can often be caused by a clogged carburetor jet. Consult the full owner's manual or a qualified technician for cleaning procedures.
• Allarme sovraccarico:
  • The generator is being asked to produce more power than its capacity. Disconnect some appliances and restart the generator.

9. Determinazione dei requisiti di potenza

To ensure optimal performance and avoid overloading your generator, it's crucial to understand the power requirements of your devices. The table below provides a general guide for common devices.

Figure 6: A chart illustrating the running and starting wattage for various devices to help determine your power needs.

Steps to Calculate Total Wattage:

1. Choose the devices you plan to power simultaneously.
2. Record and add the running watts for each device.
3. Identify the device with the highest starting watts and add that to your total running watts to determine your minimum starting wattage requisito.
