MAINTENANCE

The purpose of the maintenance and adjustment schedule is to keep
the generator in the best operating condition.
Inspect or service as scheduled in the table below.
Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or
repairs. This will eliminate several potential hazards:
Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust. Be sure there is
adequate ventilation whenever you operate the engine.
Burns from hot parts. Let the engine and exhaust system cool
before touching.
Injury from moving parts. Do not run the engine unless instructed
to do so.
The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for a
while after stopping the engine. Be careful not to touch the muffler
while it is hot. Let the engine cool before maintenance.
Use genuine Honda parts or their equivalent. The use of replacement
parts which are not of equivalent quality may damage the generator.
