ADJUSTMENTS:
√
The engine should be checked for proper speed setting(s).
√
Adjust the engine speed to 3720 RPM's (62 Hz) with no load applied to the generator set.
TEST ALL GFCI RECEPTACLES ON A MONTHLY BASIS BY PRESSING THE TEST BUTTON ON THE
RECEPTACLE AND MAKING SURE THAT THE GFCI TRIPS AND ELIMINATES ALL POWER COMING
FROM IT. REPLACE ANY GFCI RECEPTACLE THAT DOES NOT RESPOND TO THE TEST PROPERLY.
ENGINE MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED ON THE GENERATOR SET
AFTER THE ENGINE HAS STOPPED AND THE GENERATOR SET HAS COOLED
DOWN. THE BATTERY AND SPARK PLUG SHOULD ALSO BE DISCONNECTED
PRIOR TO PERFORMING MAINTENANCE.
This manual contains only very minimal engine maintenance instructions. You should refer to the
engine manufacturer's owner's manual for specific maintenance instructions for the engine on your
generator set. Any maintenance instructions or recommendations in the engine owner's manual take
precedence over any of the following general recommendations.
1. Clean and/or replace any fuel, oil, and/or air filters per the engine manufacturers' guidelines.
2. Check oil level regularly; at least every 5 to 8 hours of operation. Be sure the proper oil
level is maintained.
3. Change the oil as is recommended in the engine manufacturer's owner's manual.
4. Replace the spark plug(s) as is recommended by the engine manufacturer (if applicable to
the engine).
5. Clean the cooling fins on the engine to keep the engine's heat dissipation potential at it's
maximum.
6. Inspect and clean all governor and carburetor linkages and make sure they operate properly.
7. Inspect the recoil rope for any damage and replace it if necessary (if applicable).
8. Clean the trash screen around the recoil or other cooling air intake.
STORAGE
If you will not be using the generator set for a significant amount of time (3 months or longer) you
should store the generator to prevent any problems that could arise from sitting idle. Please fully
read the following guidelines prior to storing the unit.
1. Remove all fuel from the engine's fuel tank. If your engine is a gasoline engine start the
generator set and allow it to run out of fuel and then close all the fuel valves. If it is not a
gasoline engine, go to step 2.
