13000W Gasoline Generator
Air cleaner Maintenance
A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor. Lower generator output power and
deteriorate the engine emission to prevent carburetor malfunction, service the air cleaner
regularly. Service more frequently when operating the generator in extremely dusty areas.
WARNING! Using gasoline or flammable solvent to clean the filter element can
cause a fire or explosion. Use only soapy water or nonflammable solvent.
NOTE: Never run the generator without the air cleaner. Rapid engine wear will
result.
1. Unsnap the air cleaner cover clips, remove the air cleaner
cover, and remove the element.
2. Wash the element in a solution of household detergent and
warm water, then rinse thoroughly, or wash in nonflammable
or high flash point solvent. Allow the element to dry thoroughly.
3. Soak the element in clean engine of and squeeze out the excess
oil. The engine will smoke during initial start-up if too much
oil is left in the element.
4. Reinstall the air cleaner element and the cover.
