DANGER
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are highly flammable and
extremely explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death. Only
fill or drain fuel outdoors in a well-ventilated area. DO NOT
pump gasoline directly into the generator. Use an approved
container to transfer the fuel to the generator. Never use
a gasoline container, gasoline tank, or any other fuel item
that is damaged or appears damaged. DO NOT overfill the
gasoline tank. Always keep fuel away from sparks, open
flames, pilot lights, heat and other sources of ignition.
DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.
Short Term Storage (up to 1 year)
Gasoline in the gasoline tank has a maximum shelf life of up to
1 year with the addition of properly formulated fuel stabilizers
and if stored in a cool, dry place. Gasoline in the carburetor,
however, may gum up and clog the carburetor if it isn’t used or
drained within 2-4 weeks.
1. Be sure all appliances are disconnected from the generator.
2. Add a properly formulated fuel stabilizer to the gasoline
tank.
3. Turn the fuel valve to the “ON” position.
4. Start and run the generator for 10 minutes so the treated
gasoline cycles through the fuel system and carburetor.
5. Turn ignition switch to the “OFF” position and allow
generator to cool completely before continuing.
