GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Regular maintenance will improve the performance and
extend the life of the generator. See any Sears or other
qualified dealer for service.
The generator's warranty does not cover items that have
been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive
full value from the warranty, the operator must maintain
generator as instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to
properly maintain your generator.
All service and adjustments should be made at least once
each season. Follow the requirements in the Maintenance
Schedule chart above.
NOTE: Once a year you should clean or replace the spark
plug and replace the air filter. A new spark plug and clean air
filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and help your engine run
better and last longer.
EMISSIONS CONTROL
Maintenance, replacement or repair of the emissions control
devices and systems may be performed by any non-road
engine repair establishment or individual.
GENERATOR MAINTENANCE
Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean and
dry. Operate and store the unit in a clean dry environment
where it will not be exposed to excessive dust, dirt, moisture
or any corrosive vapors. Cooling air slots in the generator
must not become clogged with snow, leaves, or any other
foreign material.
Check the cleanliness of the generator frequently and clean
when dust, dirt, oil, moisture or other foreign substances are
visible on its exterior surface.

NOTE: DO NOT use a garden hose to clean generator. Water
can enter the engine fuel system and cause problems. In
addition, if water enters the generator through cooling air
slots, some of the water will be retained in voids and cracks
of the rotor and stator winding insulation. Water and dirt
buildup on the generator internal windings will eventually
decrease the insulation resistance of these windings.
Generator Cleaning
Daily or before use, clean accumulated debris from
generator. Keep linkage, spring and controls clean. Keep area
around and behind muffler free from any combustible debris.
Inspect cooling air slots and openings on the generator.
These openings must be kept clean and unobstructed.
Generator parts should be kept clean to reduce the risk of
overheating and ignition of accumulated debris.
• Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
Improper treatment of generator can damage it and
shorten its life.
• DO NOT expose generator to excessive moisture, dust, dirt, or
corrosive vapors.
• DO NOT insert any objects through cooling slots.
• Use a soft bristle brush to loosen caked on dirt, oil, etc.
• Use a vacuum cleaner to pick up loose dirt and debris.
