Never touch the rotating parts.

 

Check and maintain fuel level regularly, and check engine oil daily.

 

At regular intervals, check the tightness of all nuts, bolts and screws. 
Before doing any repairs or maintenance, you

Equipment (PPE). Suggested PPE Sturdy footwear, work gloves and long trousers.

 

 

   

CAUTION 

 

NEVER

 

use a “pressure washer” to clean your generator. Water can penetrate

 

areas of the 

unit and cause damage to electrics and engine. The use of pressure washers will result in 
shortened life and reduce serviceability. Shut down the engine, wait for all moving parts to 
come to a complete stop and then wait for 5 minutes before performing maintenance on the 
machine. 
 

NOTE

MUST

 only use parts that meet the manufacturer 

part number specifications.  Replacement parts that 

DO NOT

 meet specifications may result 

in a safety hazard or poor operation of the generator and will 

VOID

 the warranty.  Major 

servicing including installation or replacement of parts should be made by a qualified service 
technician.
