STORAGE
STORAGE PRECAUTIONS
REMOVAL FROM STORAGE
If your generator will be stored with gasoline in the fuel tank and
carburetor, it is important to reduce the hazard of gasoline vapor
ignition.
If possible, avoid storage areas with high humidity, because that
promotes rust and corrosion.
Also avoid any area with a spark-producing electric motor, or where
power tools are operated.
Select a well ventilated storage area away from any appliance that
operates with a flame, such as a furnace, water heater, or clothes dryer.
Unless all fuel has been drained from the fuel tank, leave the engine
switch in the OFF position, and the fuel tank cap vent lever in the OFF
position (see page
) to reduce the possibility of leakage.
With the engine and exhaust system cool, cover the generator to keep
out dust. A hot engine and exhaust system can ignite or melt some
materials.
Do not use sheet plastic as a dust cover. A nonporous cover will trap
moisture around the generator, promoting rust and corrosion.
Check your generator as described in the BEFORE OPERATION chapter
of this manual (see page ).
If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the tank with
fresh gasoline. If you keep a container of gasoline for refueling, be
sure that it contains only fresh gasoline. Gasoline oxidizes and
deteriorates over time, causing hard starting.
If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the
engine may smoke briefly at startup. This is normal.
Place the generator on a level surface. Tilting or laying it on its side
can cause fuel or oil leakage.
