GENERATOR MAINTENANCE
Your generator should be kept clean and dry at all times. The generator should
not be stored or operated in environments that includes excessive moisture,
dust or any corrosive vapors. If these substances are on the generator, clean
with a cloth or soft bristle brush. Do not use a garden hose or anything with
water pressure to clean the generator. Water may enter the cooling air slots and
could possibly damage the rotor, stator and the internal windings of the gen
head.
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER GFCI RECEPTACLE
MONTHLY: For maximum protection against electrical shock the GFCI should
be tested monthly.
To test:
1.
Depress the TEST button. The RESET button should extend. If the RESET
button does not extend, notify a DeVilbiss Air Power Company Authorized
Warranty Service Center.
2.
To restore power, depress the RESET button firmly into the GFCI unit until an
audible click is heard. If reset properly, the RESET button is flush with the
surface of the test button. When the button stays in, the power is ON.
If you are going to store your generator for more than 30 days, use the
following information as a guide to prepare the generator for storage.
Never store generator with fuel in the tank indoors or in
enclosed, poorly ventilated areas, where fumes can reach
an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a furnace, water heater, clothes
dryer or other gas appliances.
ENGINE PREPARATION
1.
Add fuel stabilizer to fuel tank to minimize the formation of fuel gum
deposits during storage.
2.
Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer to allow it to enter the
fuel system.
3.
Next shut off engine.
4.
Disconnect the spark plug wire and remove the spark plug.
5.
Add one teaspoon of oil through the spark plug hole.
6.
Place rag over spark plug hole and pull the recoil a few times to lubricate
the combustion chamber.
7.
Replace the spark plug, but do not connect the spark plug wire.
NOTE: If a fuel stabilizer is not used, all gasoline must be drained from the tank
and carburetor to prevent gum deposits from forming on these parts and causing
possible malfunction of the engine.
