CLEANING
Remove dirt and debris with a cloth or brush. DO
NOT use high pressure spray to clean either the
engine or the generator. This high pressure spray
could contaminate the fuel system and the genera-
tor components.
1. Keep the air inlet screen on both the engine and
generator free of any dirt or debris to insure proper
cooling. At least yearly, remove the blower housing
on the engine and clean the chaff and dirt out of the
engine cooling fi ns and fl ywheel. Clean more often
if necessary. Failure to keep these areas clean may
cause overheating and permanent damage to the
unit.
2. Periodically clean the muffl er area to remove all
grass, dirt and combustible debris to prevent a fi re.
3. On engine muffl ers equipped with spark arrest-
ers, the spark arrester must be removed every 50
hours for cleaning and inspection.
Replace if damaged
