Please can you tell me the exact spec/size for the fuel line (between fuel tank and carbuerator) for a Impact Inverter Generator IM 1800 IFG, and the appropriate clips necessary? Thank you very much.

The document states that the fuel line is attached to a barb using a tubing clamp and can be removed with pliers. However, it does not specify the exact size of the fuel line or the type or size of the tubing clips needed.

Therefore, based on the provided information:

Specifications and size of the fuel line: NOT SPECIFIED
Type of clips needed: Tubing clamp (exact type and size NOT SPECIFIED)

My impax 1800w inverter genorator starts fine but red overload light stays on and green light stays on too. Is there some way to reset.

To reset the overload light on an Impax IM1800IFG inverter generator, follow these steps:

1. Disconnect the Load – Unplug all connected appliances from the generator's AC output sockets.
2. Check the Overload Indicator – If the red overload indicator light is ON, the generator has detected an overload or a short circuit.
3. Turn Off the Generator – Switch the engine switch to the STOP position.
4. Check for Issues – Ensure the connected appliances do not exceed the generator’s rated capacity and inspect for any short circuits.
5. Restart the Generator – Follow the standard starting procedure:
- Turn the fuel valve to the ON position.
- Turn the engine switch to the ON position.
- Set the choke lever to the CLOSED position if the engine is cold.
- Pull the recoil starter cord until the engine starts.
- Once running smoothly, set the choke lever to the RUN position.
6. Reconnect the Load – Plug in appliances one at a time, ensuring the total load does not exceed the generator's capacity.

If the overload light remains ON after following these steps, further troubleshooting may be required.
