Check the Engine
• Before each use, look around and underneath the engine for signs of
oil or gasoline leaks.
• Check the oil level (see page 37). A low oil level will cause the Oil
Alert system to shut down the engine.
• Check the air filter (see page 40). A dirty air filter will restrict air flow
to the carburetor, reducing engine and generator performance.
• Check the fuel level (see page 35). Starting with a full tank will help
to eliminate or reduce operating interruptions for refueling.
Check the GFCI
Check the GFCI operation (see page 26) after starting the engine.
