DRAINING THE FUEL TANK
Drain and clean the fuel tank each year, or before storing the
generator for longer than two months.
1. Prepare an approved gasoline-storage container to collect the
drained fuel. Place it near the fuel valve.
2. Turn the fuel valve (Fig. 25) to the OFF position.
3. Locate the fuel line (Fig. 26 - 1) between the fuel valve and the
carburetor. Disconnect the fuel line from the fuel valve.
NOTE: A small amount of fuel may leak from the fuel line during
removal.
4. Place a funnel below the fuel valve opening, and direct the
other end of the funnel over the prepared container.
5. Turn the fuel valve to the ON position to start draining the fuel
from the fuel valve opening.
NOTE: The draining process may take a few hours, depending
on the amount of fuel in your gas tank.
6. Once the fuel is completely drained, turn the fuel valve to the
OFF position.
7. Start and run the engine until the fuel runs out.
8. Drain the carburetor. Refer to "Draining The Carburetor" on
page 29.
CAUTION! Store the emptied gasoline in a suitable place. Never
store fuel for more than 2 months.
