GENERATOR MAINTENANCE
Make certain that the generator is kept clean and
stored properly. Only operate the unit on a flat, level
surface in a clean, dry operating environment.
DO NOT expose the unit to extreme conditions,
excessive dust, dirt, moisture or corrosive vapours.
NOTE:
DO NOT use a garden hose to clean the generator.
Water can enter the generator through the cooling
slots and damage the generator windings.
Use a damp cloth to clean exterior surfaces of the
generator.
Use a soft bristle brush to remove dirt and oil.
Use an air compressor 25 PSI (172 kPa) to clear dirt
and debris from the generator.
Inspect all air vents and cooling slots to ensure that
they are clean and unobstructed.
STORAGE
It is recommended to start and run the generator for
30 minutes, every 30 days. If this is not possible,
refer to below short term and long term storage.
Short Term Storage
Fill the tank with fresh gasoline and add gasoline
stabilizer. Drain the carburetor float bowl.
1 - Add a properly formulated FUEL STABILIZER to
the tank if it is not already added.
2 - Run the engine for 10-15 minutes to circulate
stabilizer throughout fuel system.
3 - Allow the generator to cool a minimum of 30
minutes and then drain the carburetor float bowl.
4 - Clean the generator and store in a cool, dry and
well ventilated area out of direct sunlight.
Long Term Storage (over one year)
For long term storage, the gasoline tank and
carburetor must be drained of gasoline.
1 - After engine cools down, remove all gasoline
from the fuel tank using non-conductive siphon.
2 - To remove the remaining gasoline in fuel system:
a-Keep the fuel valve open and run the engine
until it stops from lack of fuel.
Or
b-Keep the fuel valve open and drain carburetor
float bowl.
3 - Change the engine oil.
4 - Remove the spark plug.
5 - Pour tablespoon( 5-10cc) of clean engine oil into
cylinder.
6 - Pull starter recoil several times to distribute oil in
cylinder.
7 - Install spark plug.
8 - Pull recoil slowly until resistance is felt. This
close valves so moisture cannot enter engine
cylinder. Gently release recoil.
9 - Clean the generator and store in a cool, dry and
well ventilated area out of direct sunlight.
DRAINING THE FLOAT BOWL
1. Turn the fuel tank valve to the OFF position.
2. Locate the drain screw on the bottom of the
carburetor float bowl.
3. Place an appropriate gasoline container under the
drain screw to catch the drained fuel.
4. Loosen the float bowl drain screw and allow the
fuel to drain. Tighten the float bowl drain screw.
DANGER
Explosion and Fire. Fuel and vapors are
extremely flammable and explosive.
Store fuel in a well ventilated area. Keep
fire and spark away. Failure to do so will
result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Risk of Fire. Verify machine has properly
cooled before installing cover and
storing machine. Hot surfaces could
result in fire.
