Maintenance Schedule
*Maintenance should be conducted more frequently when the generator is being used in dusty areas.
**These items should be serviced by a professional mechanic, unless you have the proper tools and
are mechanically proficient. Hike Crew is not liable for damage to parts sustained due to mechanical
ineptitude. Don’t try to replace it if you’re not sure you can. Don’t try to replace it because you
watched one YouTube video.
***These are just recommended guidelines for scheduled maintenance. If you use your generator more
often, or run it for extended periods of time, the engine may require servicing more frequently.
