SERVICE AND STORAGE
DANGER
Any damages or hazards caused by using
improper fuel, improperly stored fuel, and/
or improperly formulated stabilizers, are not
covered by manufacturer's warranty.
Infrequent Service
If the unit is used infrequently, difficult starting
may result. To eliminate hard starting, follow
these instructions:
1. Run the generator at least 30 minutes every
month.
2. Run the generator, then close the fuel shut-off
valve and allow the unit to run until the engine
stops.
3. Move the engine switch to the "
OFF
" position.
Long Term Storage
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming
in essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor,
fuel hoses or tank during storage. Also, experience
indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol,
ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture, which leads
to separation and formation of acids during storage.
Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine
while in storage.
When the generator set is not being operated, or
is being stored for more than one month, follow
these instructions to avoid engine problems:
•
1-
ADD
a properly formulated commercially
FUEL
STABILIZER
to the tank if it is not already added.
2-Operate the engine for 5-10 minutes to circulate
treated fuel into fuel lines and carburetor before
3- After engine cools down, remove all gasoline
from the fuel tank. Use a commercially available,
non-conductive vacuum siphon.
shutdown.
Drain fuel into approved container outdoors,
away from open flame. Be sure engine is cool.
Do not smoke.
4-
FUEL STARVATION:
Start and run the generator
until it stops from lack of fuel. This will dry out all
remaining fuel in tank, fuel lines and carburetor.
7-Remove spark plug and pour about one teaspoon
of engine oil through the spark plug hole, then pull
the recoil starter several times to distribute the oil for
lubricating the cylinder. Reattach the spark plug.
Pull recoil slowly until resistance is felt. This will
close the valves so moisture cannot enter engine
cylinder. Gently release recoil starter.
5-Allow the unit to cool entirely before cleaning
and storage.
6-Change oil with recommended grade oil.
8-Keep the engine switch and fuel valve on “
OFF
”
position.
9-Cover the unit and store in a clean, dry place
out of direct sunlight.
NEVER USE WATER TO
CLEAN GENERATOR.
NOTE:
We recommend always using a fuel stabilizer.
A FUEL STABLIZER
will minimize the formula-
tion of fuel gum deposits during storage, the
fuel stabilizer can be added to the gasoline in
the fuel tank, or into the gasoline in a storage
container.
•
If it is not practical to empty the fuel tank and
the unit is to be stored for some time, use a
commercially available
FUEL STABILIZER
added
to the gasoline to increase the life of the gasoline.
Run the unit for 5-10 minutes, turn off the fuel
valve and allow to run until engine stops from
lack of fuel (
FUEL STARVATION
).
•
Do not store gasoline from one season to
another season.
