GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Regular maintenance will improve the performance
and extend the life of the generator. See any
authorized Sears dealer for service.
The generator warranty does not cover items that
have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence.
To receive full value from the warranty, operator must
maintain generator as instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to
properly maintain your generator.
All adjustments in this section should be made at least
once each season. Follow the requirements in the
"Maintenance Schedule" chart shown 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.
EMISSION CONTROL
Maintenance, replacement or repair of the emission
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.
To C_ean the Generator
• Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
CAUTION
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.
Use low pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) to blow
away dirt. Inspect cooling air slots and openings on
the generator. These openings must be kept clean
and unobstructed.
