Service more often under dirty or dusty conditions.
General Recommendations
Regular maintenance will improve the performance
and extend the life of the generator. See any
authorized dealer for service.
The generator’s warranty does not cover items that
have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence.
To receive full value from the warranty, the operator
must maintain the generator as instructed in this
manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to
properly maintain your generator.
All service and adjustments should be made at least
once each season. A new spark plug and clean
air filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and help
your engine run better and last longer. Follow the
requirements in the Maintenance Schedule chart
above.
Generator Maintenance
Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit
clean and dry. Operate and store the unit in a clean dry
environment where it will not be exposed to excessive
dust, dirt, moisture, or any corrosive vapors. Cooling
air slots in the generator must not become clogged
with snow, leaves, or any other foreign material.
NOTICE
DO NOT use water or other liquids to clean
generator. Liquids can enter engine fuel system,
causing poor performance and/or failure to occur. In
addition, if liquid enters generator through cooling air
slots, some of the liquid will be retained in voids and
cracks of the rotor and stator winding insulation. Liquid
and dirt buildup on the generator internal windings will
eventually decrease the insulation resistance of these
windings.
Cleaning
Daily or before use, look around and underneath
the generator for signs of oil or fuel leaks. Clean
accumulated debris from inside and outside the
generator. Keep the linkage, spring and other engine
controls clean. Keep the area around and behind
the muffler free from any combustible debris. Inspect
cooling air slots and openings on generator. These
openings must be kept clean and unobstructed.
Engine parts should be kept clean to reduce the risk of
overheating and ignition of accumulated debris:
• Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
NOTICE
Improper treatment of generator could
damage it and shorten its life.
• DO NOT expose generator to excessive moisture, dust,
dirt, or corrosive vapors.
• DO NOT insert any objects through cooling slots.
• Use a soft bristle brush to loosen caked on dirt or
oil.
• Use a vacuum cleaner to pick up loose dirt and
debris.
