Maintenance and Repairs
Only a qualified
electrical service
person should service and repair the
alternator on this generator. Use only
factory approved repair parts.
The engine speed is
preset. The throttle
is locked in preset position. Do not
adjust throttle. Preset position lets
engine run at 3600 RPM under load.
The engine must maintain 3600 RPM for
generator to create correct voltage.
Running engine at lower speeds will
damage generator and powered items.
Shut off generator
before performing
maintenance.
Storage
Remove all fuel
from fuel tank
before storing generator. Store fuel in
approved container. Store fuel in a
well-vented area free of open flames
or sparks.
The muffler
becomes very hot
during operation. The muffler remains
hot for a while after shutdown. Let
engine cool before storing.
IMPORTANT: Keep generator level while
in storage. Never store generator upside
down or standing on end.
NOTE: We supply the engine owner’s
manual with generator. Refer to that manual
for questions concerning engine storage.
Cover and store generator in a clean, dry
place. Do not expose generator to extreme
high or low temperatures during storage.
IMPORTANT: Keep generator level when
servicing. Never turn generator upside
down or stand it on end to service.
NOTE: We supply the engine owner’s
manual with generator. Refer to that
manual for questions concerning engine
maintenance and repairs.
Non-engine parts require little mainte-
nance. Keep generator clean. Use a damp
cloth to clean outside surfaces. Never use
water to clean generator. Water can cause
damage to internal parts. Use vacuum to
clean air inlet and outlet louvers of
alternator.
