c.
Remove the wing nut (3).
d. Remove the air cleaner element (4) and the outer
foam element (5).
e. Blow air through both elements using 42-71 psi
compressed air to remove the particulates. Use the
lowest possible air pressure to remove the dust with-
out damaging the elements.
f.
If either element is damaged replace both of them
(they are not sold individually). Replacement element
part number is 114210-12590.
g. Clean the inside of the air cleaner cover (2).

LOW OIL LEVEL SHUTDOWN SYSTEM
This low oil warning system will automatically stop the
engine before the oil pressure reaches an operational dan-
ger point. This feature is designed to prevent costly repairs
and downtime.
Use of the oil safety shutdown system on applications that
are subject to shock, bumping or severe angles of opera-
tion (in excess of 15 degrees) should be avoided. This is
especially true if an unexpected shutdown would cause a
safety hazard or serious inconvenience for the operator.
GENERATOR CARE
Proper care and maintenance of the generator is neces-
sary to insure a long trouble free life.
1. Exercising The Generator - The generator should be
operated every three to four weeks. It should be operated
for a period of time suffi cient to warm the unit up and to
dry out any moisture that has accumulated in the wind-
ings. If left this moisture can cause corrosion in the wind-
ing. Frequent operation of the engine generator set will
also insure that the set is operating properly should it be
needed in an emergency.
2. Generator Maintenance - Any major generator service
including the installation or replacement of parts should be
performed only by a qualifi ed electrical technician. USE
ONLY FACTORY APPROVED REPAIR PARTS.
a. Bearing - The bearing used in these generators is a
heavy duty double sealed ball bearing. They require no
maintenance or lubrication.
b. Receptacles - Quality receptacles have been utilized.
If a receptacle should become cracked or otherwise dam-
aged, replace it. Using damaged or cracked receptacles
can be dangerous both to the operator and to the equip-
ment.
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 generator components.
1. Keep the air inlet screen on both the engine and gen-
erator 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 muffl er area to remove all grass, dirt
and combustible debris to prevent a fi re.
3. On engine muffl ers equipped with spark arresters, the
spark arrester must be removed every 50 hours for clean-
ing and inspection. Replace if damaged.
