12 Storage/Transport
To prevent fuel spillage during transport or storage, the generator should be placed upright in its normal operating
position with the engine switched off. Allow the engine to cool down before moving the tank lid bleed valve to the
OFF position.

When transporting the generator:
1. Do not overfill the tank (there must be no fuel in the filler neck).
2. Do not operate or store the generator inside a vehicle. Remove the generator from the vehicle and use it in a
well-ventilated place.
3. Avoid direct sunlight when leaving the generator inside a vehicle. If the generator is left in a closed vehicle for
many hours, high temperature inside the vehicle could vaporise fuel, resulting in a possible explosion.
4. Do not drive on unpaved roads for an extended period of time when the generator is on board. If you need to
transport the generator on unpaved roads, drain the fuel tank first.
If the generator is stored for an extended period, preventive measures must be taken to prevent deterioration and
corrosion. The storage temperature should be between -25°C to 55°C.
12.1 Draining the fuel
1. Move the engine switch to “STOP” (1).
2. Remove the tank cap and the filter. Extract the fuel from the tank into an approved
fuel canister. Then replace the tank cap.
(WARNING)
Petrol is highly flammable and toxic. Check the “SAFETY INFORMATION” carefully (see page 32).
(IMPORTANT)
Immediately wipe off any spilled fuel with a clean, dry, and soft cloth, as fuel can damage painted surfaces or
plastic parts.
3. Start the engine (see page 14) and let it run until it stops. The engine will stop approximately 20 minutes after the
fuel runs out.
TIP:
Do not connect any electrical devices (no load).
The time for which the engine runs depends on the amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
4. Remove the screws, followed by the cover.
5. Drain the fuel from the carburettor by loosening the drain plug on the carburettor’s float chamber.
6. Switch the engine to “STOP”.
7. Tighten the drain plug.
8. Replace the cover and tighten the screws.
9. Turn the bleed valve to “OFF” after the engine has cooled down completely.
