• 

Replace the gasoline can if it has started to rust. 
Rust and/or dirt in the gasoline will cause problems 
with the carburetor and fuel system.

• 

If possible, store the unit indoors and cover it to 
give protection from dust and dirt. BE SURE TO 
EMPTY THE FUEL TANK.

If it is not practical to empty the fuel tank and the unit 
is to be stored for some time, use a commercially avail-
able fuel stabilizer added to the gasoline to increase the 
life of the gasoline.

• Cover the unit with a suitable protective cover

that does not retain moisture. 

SECTION 8 - WARRANTY

We welcome warranty repair and apologize to you for 
being inconvenienced. Any Authorized Service Dealer 
may perform warranty repairs. Consumer sales  are 
warranted for one (1) year. Most warranty repairs are 
handled routinely, but sometimes requests for warranty 
service may not be appropriate. For example, warranty 
service would not apply if equipment damage occurred 
because of misuse, lack of routine maintenance, ship-
ping, handling, warehousing or improper installation. 
Similarly, the warranty is void if the manufacturing date 
or the serial number on the portable generator has 
been removed or the equipment has been altered or 
modified. During the warranty period, the Authorized 
Service Dealer, at its option, will repair or replace any 
part that, upon examination, is found to be defective 
under normal use and service. This warranty will not 
cover the following repairs and equipment:

• REGULAR WEAR: Outdoor Power Equipment, as with 

all mechanical devices, need periodic part(s) service 
and replacement to perform as designed. This warranty 
will not cover repair when normal use has exhausted 
the lifetime of a part(s) or engine.

•  INSTALLATION  AND  MAINTENANCE:  This  warranty 

does not cover the generator or parts when they have 
been subjected to improper or unauthorized use, as-
sembly, altered, modified, or damage due to misuse, 
negligence, accident, overloading, over-speeding, im-
proper maintenance, repair or storage so as, in our 
judgment, to adversely affect its performance and reli-
ability. This warranty also does not cover regular main-
tenance and parts such as air filters, adjustments, fuel 
system cleaning and obstruction (due to chemical, dirt, 
carbon, lime, and so forth).

• OTHER EXCLUSIONS: This warranty excludes wear

-

ing parts such as o-rings, filters, etc., or malfunctions 
resulting from accidents, abuse, modifications, altera-
tions, or improper servicing or freezing or chemical 
deterioration; Damaged related to rodent and/or insect 
infestation. Accessory parts such as starting batteries, 
generator adapter cord sets and storage covers are ex-
cluded from the product warranty. This warranty ex-
cludes used, reconditioned, and demonstration equip-
ment, equipment used for prime power in place of utility 
power, equipment used in life support applications, and 
failures due to acts of God and other force majeure 
events beyond the manufacturers control, such as col-
lision, theft, vandalism, riot or wars, nuclear holocaust, 
fire, freezing, lightning, earthquake, windstorm, hail, 
volcanic eruption, water or flood, tornado or hurricane.
