10. TRANSPORTATION/WAREHOUSING
To prevent fuel leakage during transport or temporary storage, turn off the oil switch and place the
generator in a location where no fuel leaks.
WARNING
When transporting the generator
：
Do not fill too much fuel into fuel tank. (There should be no fuel in the filler).
Make sure the oil switch is turned to “OFF”.
Generator should be placed in a stable position to prevent rollover during transportation.
When the generator is still in transit, do not run the generator. Remove the generator from the
vehicle and use it at the ventilation.
When placing the generator in a transport vehicle, avoid placing it in direct sunlight. If the
generator is placed in a sealed compartment, the high temperature inside the compartment
may cause the fuel to evaporate and cause an explosion.
Do not transport the generator on a rough road for a long time. If you have to do so, please
drain the fuel before transporting the generator.
Before long-term storage:
Make sure the storage area is dry and clean.
Drain all fuel out.
WARNING
Under certain conditions, gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive. Stored generators
may contain unburned clean fuel. Therefore, fireworks should be prohibited in the area where
generators are stored.
Transfer the gasoline from the tank to the reserve tank. Loosen the carburetor bolt and transfer
the gas oil to the reserve tank; loosen the vent bolt, remove the spark plug and pull the coil 3-4
times to drain the remaining gas in the gas pump.
Exhaust oil. Remove the spark plug, pour a tablespoon of clean oil into the cylinder, pull the start
handle a few times to scatter the oil, and then install the spark plug back.
Pull the handle slowly until it feels pressure. At this moment, the piston is rising to the top of its
compression stroke and the exhaust valve is closed. Storage in this case helps prevent rust
inside the engine.
