Emission Control System Information; Storing And Transporting Your Generator - Duracell DG66M-R62 Owner's Manual

Emission Control System Information

Please refer to the engine owner's manual regarding the emission control system information and any
maintenance requirements to keep your equipment in compliance with regulations.
You may also consult your Authorized Service Dealer for maintenance and repair procedures that are
applicable to your specific needs and usage.

Storing and transporting your generator

Keep your generator upright at all times.
Never lay your generator on its side while moving, storing, or using it.
Oil could leak and damage your generator's engine and surrounding areas.
Allow to cool: Your generator can get very hot when in use. A hot engine and exhaust system could
cause severe burns and even ignite some materials. So, allow it to cool for at least fifteen minutes before
moving or storing it.
Keep upright: To avoid damaging your generator and spilling fuel, the generator should remain in an
upright position at all times.
Turn OFF: Confirm that the Engine Switch is in the OFF position and that the Fuel Tank Cap is closed.
Protect your generator: Never drop your generator and protect it from getting damaged when using,
transporting, or storing it. Never lay heavy objects on your generator.
Carefully select storage area: While in storage, your generator needs to be free of dust and not
exposed to high-humidity conditions. So, examine the storage area closely to be sure it's an appropriate
storage area.
