TRANSPORTING THE GENERATOR
To prevent fuel spillage when transporting, be sure to perform the following to your generator:
1. Tighten the fuel cap and make sure the fuel valve is turned OFF.
2. Make sure the engine switch is in the OFF position.
3. Drain the fuel tank if possible (see “Draining the Fuel Tank”).
4. Keep the generator upright. Never place the generator on its side or upside down - doing so could damage the
internal components of the generator and make it difficult to start.
STORING THE GENERATOR
Shut off the generator and allow the unit to cool to room temperature before storing it. Never place any type of stor-
age cover on the generator while it is still hot. Do not obstruct any ventilation openings.
Follow the procedures below for properly storing your generator. We highly recommend running your generator
once a month for 20 to 30 minutes. Plug in a small load in to ensure there is proper power output.
For Short Periods (30 to 60 Days):
•
Drain the carburetor.
• Disconnect the negative terminal from the battery.
• Add fuel stabilizer:
Follow the suggested portions and instructions of your
preferred stabilizer. Run the engine for 15 to 20 minutes,
allowing the fuel stabilizer to mix with the gasoline and
circulate through the carburetor, and then top off with fuel.
Filling the fuel tank full reduces the amount of air in the
tank and helps fight deterioration of fuel.
For Extended Periods
(Over 60 Days):
• Drain the fuel tank and carburetor (see
“DRAINING THE FUEL TANK”). NEVER store
generator with fuel in the tank for more than two
months.
• Change the engine oil (see “CHANGING OIL”).
PRODUCT DISPOSAL

TRANSPORTATION & STORAGE
WARNING!
Avoid direct sunlight inside a vehicle. If the generator is left in an enclosed vehicle for many
hours, the high temperature could cause the fuel to vaporize and result in a possible explosion.
WARNING!
Store the generator upright in a cool and dry location, away from sources of heat, open flames,
sparks or pilot lights.
