GENERAL WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
ENVIORNMENTAL HAZARD
The “General Terms of Sale and Delivery” of the manufacturer or his authorized representative
apply.
Please notify the manufacturer or his authorized representative about any of the following:
• Accidents
• Potential safety hazards associated with the wind turbine system
• Ambiguities in this translation of the original instructions
• Description of the wind turbine system
• The wind turbine system may only be used as a “small wind turbine system” (SWTS) to
generate power in accordance with EN 61400-2.
• The wind turbine system may only be operated in accordance with the ratings and in the
approved wind class (refer to the technical data).
• Observance of the original instructions and compliance with the maintenance and repair
instructions are essential preconditions of use for the intended purpose.
• All forms of use which deviate from or exceed the limits of use described above are contrary
to the intended purpose. The manufacturer is not liable for any damage resulting from such
use.
• No liability will be accepted by the manufacturer if the equipment has been altered as
well as in the event of improper assembly, installation, start-up, operation, maintenance, or
repair.
• Only original parts supplied by the manufacturer are approved as spare parts or accessories.
Any spare parts or accessories not supplied by the manufacturer have not been tested
for operation and could be detrimental to reliability. No liability will be accepted by the
manufacturer for any damages which result from the use of non-approved spare parts or
accessories.
• Reasonably foreseeable misuse includes:
• Operation outside the manufacturer’s specification.
• All modifications or changes to the wind turbine system without the manufacturer’s
written approval.
• Use of parts other than ATLAS 7 original parts.
• Operation in non-approved SWTS classes.
• Operation in strong winds or hurricanes.

The Wind Turbine Charge Controller from TESUP is an intelligent controller which controls the
wind turbine. It safely and efficiently charges and control your battery with the wind generator
combination.
With its discreet appearance and simple operation with integrated protection functions, this
device has high efficiency and no-load losses. The version of the controller will significantly
increase the life and sustainability of all the component of the system.
The special features and product information are listed below:
• Use of solid-state components.
• Manual brake function.
• Increasing the life of the controller. Microprocessor controlled charge with integrated
voltage and current limiting.
• Dump-load is included. Modern Load dissipation system in three steps to avoid immediate
blockage of turbine.
• Resistors might be used for heating.
STORAGE:
• Ambient temperature: -15 to +40°C.
• Storage location: Dry, frost-free
• OPERATION:
• Ambient temperature: -25 to +40°C.
• Place of use: Max. SWTS Class III acc. to EN 61400-2.
Our wind turbine systems can only be used as a ‘Small Wind Turbine System’ (SWTS) to
generate power in accordance with EN 61400-2. Our products can be used for low voltage
generation purposes; voltage can be maximised to 75V with a TESUP Charge Controller. Our
wind turbines should operate with a charge controller at all times. We are constantly improving
our technology; our latest wind turbines can generate more than 100 volts during high winds,
some products even at 10 m/s wind speed.
The TESUP Charge Controller can adjust and limit the output voltage level between 0 to 75
volts. If the inverter option is selected using the button on the TESUP charge controller, there is
no maximum voltage limitation. Stickers warning of electrical danger are on our products. We
do not take any responsibility for health risks associated with the use of electricity.

The Company (TESUP) is not responsible for modifications and external damages that may
inhibit voltage generation. While we take utmost care to ensure that product descriptions,
pictures, information and prices are correct, we do not accept any liability for any inaccuracies,
errors or omissions. We do not accept any liability for any inaccuracies for incorrect usage
of TESUP products. We do not take any responsibility for installation and modifications
mistakes for the products which are delivered disassembled. Colours may differ slightly from
those shown on the website due to limitations of internet, software and computer hardware
technologies. In line with our policy of continuous product improvement, TESUP reserves the
right to change, vary or make different the product specification without prior notification.
• The wind turbine system is in conformity with the European Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
provided only original ATLAS 7 components are used and subject to proper erection. The use
of components from other manufacturers as well as modifications or changes to the wind
turbine system by the user are prohibited and could render the declaration of conformity
invalid.
• Any residual risks which arise because of operation or maintenance are described in the
relevant sections of these instructions.
• All work on the wind turbine system must be carried out by authorized persons. Such
persons must be familiar with the safety devices and regulations prior to carrying out the
work. Authorized persons are defined as follows:

WARNING:
- Danger to life due to operation in non-approved wind classes! The
wind turbine system may only be operated up to Class III wind sites.
- High Wind Speed - High Voltages - High Temperatures
- Fire Resistant Cables Only
- OUTDOOR USE ONLY
• For information on local wind classes, please contact the responsible authorities or your
nearest meteorological office.
• The place of use must be free of obstacles; alternatively, the wind turbine must be erected
with a sufficient height. As this is specifically for home use, the location on top of the house
or terrace should be good for proper functioning of the turbine.
The mounting surface and the bearer of your choice must have a sufficient load-bearing
capacity. The size and structure of the foundation depend on the ground/ surface
characteristics.
TURBINE BODY:
• Carefully take all the components out of the box.
• Fix the turbine body (base) to the turbine’s final
location.
• Now insert the shaft on the rotor shaft (Double holes of
the shaft should face down, single hole upside).
• Fix the shaft to the rotor shaft through the bottom
holes on the shaft using the grub screws provided.
• Mount the bottom flange to the shaft.
• Mount the top flange to the shaft.
• Take a long profile set and mount the profile to the
designated housings on the lower blade as shown in
the diagram on the next page.
• Take a short profile set and mount the profile to the
designated housings on the upper blade as shown in
the diagram on the next page.
• Take a purple belt and mount the upper and lower
blades together via the belt. The belt must be fixed to the blades from the outer surface.
Repeat these three steps for all three blade sets.
• Mount complete blade sets to the top and bottom flange with the bolts and nuts provided.
IMPORTANT: If you are using a charge control unit, you must install
a battery-inverter in your charge control unit before proceeding.
WARNING:
- Danger to life due to operation in non-approved wind classes! The
wind turbine system may only be operated up to Class III wind sites.
