TROUBLESHOOTING
Basic checks
• Make sure you have plenty of fuel
• Make sure the fuel tap is on
• Make sure the engine-switch is on

oil level is too low, the generator will not be
able to start.
• Remove spark plug, connect spark plug
lead and earth it to the generator. Pull
starter cord gently and look for a spark. If
there is no spark, replace spark plug.
Spark plug is OK, but engine still won’t
start
• Check fuel tap filter is clean
• Check fuel line is clear
• Check carburetor is not clogged
Engine will not start
• Clean or replace spark plug
• Check ignition system – if faulty, contact
your service centre
• Check compression – if low, contact your
service centre
• Check for loose cylinder head – tighten
bolts
