STORAGE PREPARATION
Proper storage preparation is essential for keeping your generator
trouble-free and looking good. The following steps will help to keep rust
and corrosion from impairing your generator’s function and appearance,
and will make the engine easier to start when you use the generator
again.
Cleaning
Wipe the generator with a moist cloth. After the generator has dried,
touch up any damaged paint, and coat other areas that may rust with a
light film of oil.
Fuel
Depending on the region where you operate your equipment, fuel
formulations may deteriorate and oxidize rapidly. Fuel deterioration and
oxidation can occur in as little as 30 days and may cause damage to
the fuel system. Please check with your servicing dealer for local
storage recommendations.
Gasoline will oxidize and deteriorate in storage. Old gasoline will cause
hard starting, and it leaves gum deposits that clog the fuel system. If
the gasoline in your generator deteriorates during storage, you may
need to have the fuel system components serviced or replaced.
The length of time that gasoline can be left in your fuel tank without
causing functional problems will vary with such factors as gasoline
blend, your storage temperatures, and whether the fuel tank is partially
or completely filled. The air in a partially filled fuel tank promotes fuel
deterioration. Very warm storage temperatures accelerate fuel
deterioration. Fuel deterioration problems may occur within a few
months, or even less if the gasoline was not fresh when you filled the
fuel tank.
The
Distributor’s Limited Warranty
does not cover fuel system damage
or engine performance problems resulting from neglected storage
preparation.
You can extend fuel storage life by adding a gasoline stabilizer that is
formulated for that purpose, or you can avoid fuel deterioration
problems by draining the fuel tank.
