Storage
Long-term storage of your generator will require
some preventative procedures to guard against
deterioration.
NOTE: Do not connect with any electrical
devices (unloaded operation).
If engine will be out of service for 2 months or
more follow procedure below.
1. Add Kohler PRO Series fuel treatment or
equivalent to fuel tank. Run engine 2-3
minutes to get stabilized fuel into fuel system
(failures due to untreated fuel are not
warrantable).
2. Change oil while engine is still warm from
operation. Remove spark plug(s) (X) and
pour about 1 oz. of engine oil into cylinder(s).
Replace spark plug(s) (X) and crank engine
slowly to distribute oil.
3. Clean generator.
4. Store generator in a dry, well-ventilated
place, with cover placed over it. When
covering generator, be sure to do so only
after engine and muffler/shield have
completely cooled down. Generator must
remain in same position as normal operation.
