5. STORAGE OF MORE THAN 30 DAYS
Note: If you store the generator for more than 30 days it is essential to protect the fuel system. This can be done by either draining
all the fuel or using a fuel additive such as “STA-BIL¨, “Fuel Fresh¨, or equivalent to prevent fuel gum deposits from forming.
Note: Store the generator in a safe, dry, childproof area, free of excessive humidity and dust.
WARNING! Petrol is highly flammable and petrol vapour is explosive. Do not permit smoking, naked flames, sparks or heat in
the
vicinity while handling petrol. Avoid spilling petrol onto a hot engine. Comply with all laws regulating storage and handling
of fuels.
