the connected generators are provided in the parallel kit owner's
manual.

Stopping the Engine

1. Turn off and unplug all electrical loads. Never start or stop the
generator with electrical devices plugged in or turned on.
2. Let the generator run at no-load for several minutes to
stabilize internal temperatures of the engine and generator.
3. Turn the EZ Start dial clockwise to the STOP position.
Important: Always ensure that the EZ Start dial and fuel lever
vent are in the "OFF" position when the generator is not in use.

If the generator will not be used for a period of two (2) weeks
or longer, please see the Storage section for proper engine and
fuel storage.

Cleaning the Generator

DO NOT spray generator directly with water.
Water can enter the generator through the cooling slots and
damage the generator windings. It can also contaminate the
fuel system.
1. Use a damp cloth to clean exterior surfaces of the generator.
2. Use a soft bristle brush to remove dirt and oil.
3. Use an air compressor (25 PSI) to clear dirt and debris from
the generator.
4. Inspect all air vents and cooling slots to ensure that they are
clean and unobstructed.
To prevent accidental starting, remove and ground the spark plug
wire before performing any service.
