Oil Filter

The oil filter should be cleaned every 6 months
or 100 hours or use. The oil filter can be found
on the base of the generator. Ensure the
generator has been drained of oil, remove the
cap, Fig 26, to gain access to the filter
assembly.

General Inspection And Storage

Regularly check that all the fixing screws are
tight. They may vibrate loose over time.

Storage

If the generator is not to be used or is to be
stored for more than one month the following
storage procedure should be carried out. Drain
all the fuel from the fuel tank and the
carburettor, ensure that all the fuel has been
removed. Remove the spark plug and pour
approximately one tablespoon full of clean
engine oil into the spark plug hole. With the
ignition turned OFF gently pull on the recoil
starter cord several times. Re-fit the spark plug
and continue to pull the recoil starter cord until

the piston is on the compression stroke (when
resistance is felt) then stop pulling.

Store the generator in a dry well ventilated place
under a cover to prevent any dust or debris from
accumulating on the generator.
