Generator Maintenance
Make certain that the generator is kept clean and stored properly. Only operate the unit on a
flat, level surface in a clean, dry operating environment. DO NOT expose the unit to extreme
conditions, excessive dust, dirty, moisture or corrosive vapors.
CAUTION
: DO NOT use a garden hose to clean the generator.
●
Water can enter the generator through the cooling slots and damage the generator
windings.
Use a damp cloth to clean exterior surfaces of the generator.
Use a soft bristle brush to remove dirt and oil.
Use an air compressor (25 PSI) to clear dirt and debris from the generator.
Inspect all air vents and cooling slots to ensure that they are clean and unobstructed.
