mAINTENANCE

  WARNING:

 

When  servicing,  use  only  identical  Ryobi 

replacement  parts.  Use  of  any  other  parts  may 

create a hazard or cause product damage.

Only the parts shown on the parts list are intended to be repaired 

or replaced by the customer. All other parts should be replaced 

at an authorised service centre.

GENERAL mAINTENANCE

Keep the generator in a clean and dry environment where it is 

not exposed to dust, dirt, moisture, or corrosive vapors. Do not 

allow the cooling air slots in the generator to become clogged 

with foreign material such as leaves, snow, etc.
Do not use a garden hose to clean the generator. Water entering 

the fuel system or other internal parts of the unit can cause 

problems that will decrease the life of the generator.

To clean the unit:

n

 

Use a soft bristle brush and/or vacuum cleaner to loosen 

and remove dirt and debris.

n

 

Clean  air  vents  with  low  pressure  air  that  does  not 

exceed 25 psi.

n

 

Wipe the exterior surfaces of the generator with a damp 

cloth.

CHECKING/CLEANING AIR fILTER

See Figure 9.

For proper performance and long life, keep air filters clean.

n

  Lift the latches located at the top and bottom of the   air 

filter cover. Remove the cover and set aside.

n

  Remove the filter elements. 

n

  If  the  filter  elements  are  dirty,  clean  with  warm,  soapy 

water. Rinse and let dry. 

n

  Apply  a  light  coat  of  engine  oil  to  the  elements,  then 

squeeze it out.

n

  Replace the elements in the air filter unit.

n

  Replace the air filter cover and close latches to secure.

 

NOTE:

  Do  not  run  the  generator  without  the  air  filter. 

Rapid engine wear will result.

CHANGING ENGINE OIL

See Figure 10.

n

 

Clean  each  of  the  parts  in  carburetor  cleaner  or  any 

comparable cleaning product.

n

 

Reinstall the filter, O-ring, and sediment cup. Tighten with 

wrench to secure.

n

 

Return the fuel valve to ON position and check for leaks.

spARK pLUG mAINTENANCE

See Figure 12.

The spark plug must be properly gapped and free of deposits 

in order to ensure proper engine operation. To check:

n
