HOT WEATHER
Pay particular attention to the following items when operating the genset in hot weather:
1. Make sure nothing blocks the air flow to and from the set.
2. Make sure the engine oil viscosity is appropriate for the hot weather temperatures. See the
recommendations in the manufacturer's owner's manual.
3. Keep the genset clean.
4. Perform maintenance due. See Periodic Maintenance.
5. Set the altitude adjust knob for your altitude (gasoline models only).
HIGH ALTITUDE
For best fuel economy and genset operation set the carburetor altitude adjust knob for your altitude
(gasoline models only). Look at road maps, travel atlases and road signs for altitude. (See Powering
Equipment for information on how altitude affects the maximum power output of the genset.)
I
CAUTION: Operating the genset at low altitude with a high altitude setting can cause power
loss, overheating and engine damage. Always reset the altitude adjust knob when returning
to lower altitudes.
DUSTY CONDITIONS
Pay particular attention to the following items when operating the genset in dusty conditions:
1. Do not let dirt and debris accumulate inside the genset compartment. Keep the genset clean.
2. Perform air cleaner maintenance more often than usual. See Periodic Maintenance.
3. Change engine oil every 50 hours.
4. Keep opened containers of engine oil tightly closed to keep out dust.
