NOTICE
Accumulated grease and oil on an engine is a fire
hazard. Keep the engine clean. Remove debris and
fluid spills whenever a significant quantity accumu-
lates on the engine.
NOTICE
Water or condensation can cause damage to genera-
tor components. Protect all electrical components
from exposure to water.
NOTICE
Failure to protect some engine components from
washing may make your engine warranty invalid. Al-
low the engine to cool for 1 hour before washing the
engine.
Periodic cleaning of the engine is recommended. A
clean engine provides the following benefits:
• Easy detection of fluid leaks
• Maximum heat transfer characteristics
• Ease of maintenance
Note:
Caution must be used to prevent electrical
components from being damaged by excessive water
when the engine is cleaned. Pressure washers and
steam cleaners should not be directed at any
electrical connectors or the junction of cables into the
rear of the connectors. Avoid electrical components
such as the alternator, the starting motors, and the
ECU.
Ensure that care is taken that the safety labels,
emission label, and any information labels are not
removed during engine cleaning.

NOTICE
Never run the engine without an air cleaner element
installed. Never run the engine with a damaged air
cleaner element. Do not use air cleaner elements
with damaged pleats, gaskets or seals. Dirt entering
the engine causes premature wear and damage to
engine components. Air cleaner elements help to pre-
vent airborne debris from entering the air inlet.
NOTICE
Never service the air cleaner element with the engine
running since this will allow dirt to enter the engine.
Renew the air filter elements if the service indicators
are triggered. Refer to Operation and Maintenance
Manual, “Engine Air cleaner Service Indicator -
Inspect” for more information.
Some engines are equipped with air intake
precleaners. Clean the precleaners before
maintenance is performed on the air filters. Ensure
that dirt does not enter the housing of the air cleaner.
