Fax +45 87 10 50 01

Operating or repairing the windturbine under

circumstances other than those covered in this
manual may only occur with the prior knowledge
and permission of NEG Micon A/S.

Failure to comply can lead to

invalidation of the guarantee on
damaged components.

Note relevant information here:

The guarantee covering individual components is Address of windturbine

described in full in the Purchase Agreement.

In addition to the inspection procedures that can

be carried out by the windturbine owner, a full
service -inspection must be made within the
guarantee period in accordance with approved
NEG Micon guidelines.

See chapter 4, Maintenance.

Safety instructions 1.2

NEG Micon turbines are constructed with the

highest regard for safety - both of the turbine itself
and its surroundings.
- if the turbine wings are iced over,
When inside, or in the vicinity of the turbine, there stop the turbine until the ice is remo-
are certain basic safety rules that must always ved
be observed.

When inside the turbine:

- beware of ice falling from the tur-

- there must be at least two people bine, wear a safety helmet
present

- stop the turbine and

disconnect the power - always keep the turbine locked
against intruders

- always use safety belts when

ascending and descending
ABNORMAL OPERATING
CONDITIONS

How a wind turbine operates 1.3

WIND BECOMES ELECTRICITY

Windpower is clean energy.

As soon as the speed of the wind exceeds approx. 3m/

sec., the turbine wings (A) begin to rotate. Power is transfer-
red via the main shaft (B) to the gear box (C), where the
number of revolutions are increased to suit the genera-
tor's capacity(D). The wind vane (E), ensures via the yaw
mechanism (F) that the turbine module is always
positioned to derive the maximum benefit from the wind's
direction. All the turbine's functions can be controlled and
at any time checked via the central computer's control
panel (G), which together with NEG Micon's well-proven
and sturdy mechanism, guarantees reliable production
and minimal maintenance year after year.

For detailed technical data, see the following pages

and chapter 5, Technical Specifications.

 Operation and inspection 2

Automatic operation 2.1 2.2

The wind turbine is equipped with a computer which

monitors the running of the turbine, making it un-
necessary to operate the turbine manually.
Should a fault occur with the turbine or the elec-
tricity grid, the turbine will stop, and the nature of
the fault can be seen on the control panel

See chapter 3, Status Displays

Individual faults and their remedies are described

under "Fault Description".

See chapter 3.5

After certain types of fault have occurred, the

windturbine will restart automatically once the cen-
tral computer has checked the turbine and the
2.3
electricity grid.
