MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

Storage

The generator should be started at least once every 
14 days and allowed to run for at least 20 minutes. 
For longer term storage, please follow these guidelines.

Generator Storage

1.  Add a properly formulated fuel stabilizer to the tank.
2.  Be sure all appliances are disconnected from the 

generator.

3.  Run the generator for a few minutes so the treated 

fuel cycles through the fuel system and carburetor.

4.  Turn the fuel valve to the “Off” position.
5.  Let the generator run until fuel starvation has 

stopped the engine. This usually takes a few 
minutes.

6.  The generator needs to cool completely before 

cleaning and storage.

7.  Remove the spark plug cap, then pull the recoil grip 3 

times to drain the petrol from the carburetor jets.

8.  Change the engine oil.
9.  Remove the spark plug and pour about a tablespoon 

of oil into the cylinder. Crank the engine slowly to 
distribute the oil and lubricate the cylinder.

10.  Reattach the spark plug.
11.  Store the unit in a clean, dry place out of direct 

sunlight.

Generator exhaust contains odorless and colorless 
carbon monoxide gas.

To avoid accidental or unintended ignition of your 
electric start generator during periods of storage, 
the following precautions should be followed:

 

– When storing the generator for short periods of 

time make sure that the ignition switch, the fuel 
valve and the battery switch are set in the OFF 
position. 

 

– When storing the generator for extended periods 

of time make sure that the ignition switch, the 
fuel valve and the battery switch are set in the 
the the OFF position and the battery leads have 
been disconnected from the battery.
