MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

The owner/operator is responsible for all periodic 
maintenance.

Complete all scheduled maintenance in a timely manner. 
Correct any issue before operating the generator.

Tampering with the factory set governor will void 
your warranty.

Engine Maintenance

To prevent accidental starting, remove and ground spark 
plug wire before performing any service.

Oil 

Change oil when the engine is warm. Refer to the oil 
specification to select the proper grade of oil for your 
operating environment.
1.  Set the generator on top of a work bench or table.
2.  Loosen the cover screws and remove the 

maintenance cover.

3.  Pop up the rubber maintenance plug, from below 

the drain bolt.

4.  Remove the drain bolt.
5.  Tilt the generator on its side and allow the oil to 

drain completely.

6.  Replace the drain bolt.
7.  Add standard engine oil and replace oil fill cap/

dipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL.

Spark Plugs

1.  Remove the spark plug cable from the spark plug.
2.  Use a spark plug socket tool or socket (not 

included) to remove the plug.

3.  Inspect the electrode on the plug. It must be clean 

and not worn to produce the spark required for 
ignition.

4.  Make certain the spark plug gap is 0.7 - 0.8 mm or 

(0.028 - 0.031 in.).

5.  Refer to the spark plug recommendation chart when 

replacing the plug.

6.  Carefully thread the plug into the engine.
7.  Use the spark plug socket (not included) to firmly 

install the plug.

8.  Attach the spark plug wire to the plug.

Maintenance, replacement, or repair of emission 
control devices and systems may be performed 
by any non-road engine repair establishment or 
individual.

NOTE

Never operate a damaged or defective generator.

WARNING

WARNING

Improper maintenance will void your warranty.

WARNING

Oil Cont’d.

0.7-0.8 mm

0.028-0.031 in.

Once oil has been added, a visual check should show 
oil about 1-2 threads from running out of the fill hole.
If using the dipstick to check oil level, DO NOT screw 
in the dipstick while checking.

NOTE

8.  Reinstall the maintenance cover and tighten the 

cover screws.

9.  Dispose of used oil at an approved waste 

management facility.

GFCI

Your generator is equipped with two (2) Ground Fault 
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) duplexes. In the event of a 
ground fault, a GFCI trips automatically to stop the 
flow of electricity and prevent serious injury. The green 
indicating light on the receptacle will also turn off. Press 
the reset button located on the front of the receptacle to 
restore flow of electricity. (A) The green indicating light 
will also turn back on. GFCI does not protect against 
circuit overloads.

To ensure proper operation of the GFCI duplex, perform 
this test monthly:
1.  With the generator running, plug a lamp into the 

GFCI receptacle. Turn the lamp on.

2.  Press the “Test” button located on the front of 

the receptacle to trip the device. (A) This should 
immediately stop the flow of electricity and shut off 
the lamp. If the electricity is not stopped, do not 
use this receptacle until is has been serviced or 
replaced.

3.  Press the “Reset” button located on the front of 

the receptacle to restore the flow of electricity. If 
the indicator light does not go out and come back 
on or if the GFCI cannot be reset then it must be 
replaced.

A

For the GFCI receptacles to work properly the neutral wire 
must be bonded to ground or to the generator frame.  Your 
Champion generator comes with the neutral wire already 
bonded to the frame. If the bonding wire is removed then 
the GFCI receptacles will no longer function as designed. 
If the neutral bonding wire is removed to accommodate 
a transfer switch installation for connection to a house 
or building, then the transfer switch must not switch off 
the neutral connection to ground within the building. 
Champion Power Equipment recommends that you consult 
with a licensed, local electrician. Due to the variety of 
local codes, we cannot specifically advise you regarding 
modifications to the wiring of your portable generator.
