after some research and trial and error: the generator powers a forcefield that blocks the way to a machine part needed to progress. to get the part anyway, get on the jetpack platform above the forcefield and let your character drop to the right side of it. the part will be collected during the fall. thx goes to èné from the forums at 8bitchip.info

Bug in level 2: Indestructible generator. Supposedly in Amiga version as well. It is not possible to complete it without cheating.
