2. Check the air cleaner.
a. Check the air cleaner element to be sure it is clean and in good condition.
b. Loosen the cover screw and remove the left side maintenance cover.
c. Press the latch tab on the top of the air cleaner body, remove the air cleaner

cover, and check the air cleaner condition.

d. Clean or replace if necessary.

Never run the engine without the air cleaner. Rapid engine wear will result from

contaminants, such as dust and dirt, being drawn through the carburetor, into

the engine.

When starting the generator after adding fuel for the first time, after long term

storage, or after running out of fuel, turn the fuel valve lever to the “ON” position,

then wait for 10 to 20 seconds before starting the engine.
