EVEN IF the generator’s gas
tank is empty. Residual gasoline could ignite.
•
Exercise regularly.
Exercise generator every four weeks to dry out moisture that accumulates in the windings. If
generator cannot be exercised on a regular basis, prepare generator for long term storage.
•
Periodic maintenance.

condition.
Safety - Inspection/Maintenance
Inspect and maintain your generator on a regular basis and repair as needed to keep it in safe working condition:
•
Turn off generator
. Always turn off generator and remove spark plug(s) or spark plug wire(s) before working on the
engine or generator to prevent accidental starting.
•
Discharge capacitor.
When the generator is shut down, the capacitor may maintain a charge. Always discharge the
capacitor before working on the generator head to prevent electrical shock.
•
Replace guards/shields.
Make sure all guards and shields are replaced after servicing the generator.
•
Replacement parts.
If a part needs replacement, only use parts that meet the manufacturer’s specifications.
Replacement parts that do not meet specifications may result in a safety hazard or poor operation of the generator and
will void the warranty.
