General Recommendations
Regular maintenance will improve the performance and
extend the life of the generator. See any authorized Brigs
& Stratton dealer for service. Never operate a
damaged or defective generator. To receive full value
from the warranty, the operator must maintain the
generator as instructed in this section.
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.
NOTE: The alternator assembly rotates on a
prelubricated and sealed ball bearing that requires no
additional lubrication for the life of the bearing.
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. See
"Emissions Control System Warranty".
Maintenance
Maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean. Operate
the unit in an environment where it will not be exposed
to excessive dust, dirt, moisture or any corrosive vapors.
Cooling air louvers on the enclosure must not become
clogged with snow, leaves, or any other foreign material.
Inspect cooling air slots and openings on generator. These
openings must be kept clean and unobstructed.
Check the cleanliness of the unit frequently and clean
when dust, dirt, oil, moisture or other foreign substances
are visible on its exterior/interior surface.
NOTE: DO NOT use direct spray from a garden hose to
clean generator. Water can enter the engine and
generator and cause problems.
Clean Debris
• Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
• Use a soft bristle brush to loosen caked on dirt or oil.
• Use a vacuum cleaner to pick up loose dirt and
debris.
