HONG KONG, Nov 30 (Reuters) - Hong Kong stocks were set to open lower on Tuesday as a stronger dollar made investors wary of riskier assets, while Chinese PC maker Lenovo Group Ltd <0992.HK> fell on a downbeat global sales outlook for the industry.

The benchmark Hang Seng Index <.HSI> was set to open down 0.19 percent at 23,122.4. The China Enterprises Index <.HSCE> of top locally listed mainland companies was indicated to open 0.27 percent lower.

Lenovo fell 1.2 percent. Market researchers are scaling back forecasts for global sales of personal computers, blaming an uncertain economic outlook in some markets and competition from tablet devices such as Apple Inc's iPad. [ID:nN29264625]

Johnson Electric Holdings Ltd <0179.HK> rose 12 percent. The micro motors maker said it posted a 27 percent rise in sales for the six months ended September, while net profit rose to $93 million from $14.6 million from a year earlier. (Reporting by Jun Ebias; Editing by Chris Lewis)
