• Install spark plug with hands and then
with spanner for final tightening, replace
spark plug cap and screws.
NOTE: The spark plug must be tight-
ened firmly. A loose spark plug may
overheat and even damage the en-
gine. Similarly an over-tightened spark
plug may damage the spark plug
and the engine cylinder head thread.
Fuel Filter Maintenance
WARNING! Gasoline is flammable
and explosive. DO NOT perform this
maintenance while smoking or near
an open flame.
• Check fuel tank is empty. See page 11 for
emptying fuel tank.
• Using a spanner, unscrew fuel valve,
turning anti-clockwise.
• Remove fuel valve and check filter.
• Clean all residue from filter. Replace filter
if necessary.
• Re-assemble.
Spark Arrester Maintenance
• Allow generator to cool completely.
• Remove the fixing screws.
• Clean carbon deposits carefully with a
brush.
• Re-install the spark arrester.
Transportation
& Storage
Transportation
In order to avoid fuel spillage during
transportation, always keep the fuel valve in
the “OFF” position. Fasten the machine so
it can’t move. Empty fuel from the generator
if transporting on a bumpy road or cross
country.
NOTE: Never place the machine on its
side or facing down during trransporta-
tion. Keep upright at all times.
WARNING! DO NOT use the genera-
tor whilst transporting.
DANGER! DO NOT leave genera-
tor in a parked vehicle in the sun. An
excessive rise in temperature could
evaporate the fuel and cause an
explosion.
Storage
Fuel loses it’s properties when stagnant,
from sitting for too long. Residues can clog
up the carburetor, preventing start-up. If
the generator is not going to be used for a
period of time (2 to 3 months or more) it is
important to drain the fuel from the tank, to
avoid future starting problems.
