OPERATION OF GENERATOR
USAGE IN HIGH ALTITUDE REGIONS:
At high altitude, performance will decrease. Engine horsepower will decrease approximately 3.5%
for each 1000 feet (305 meters) increase in altitude. At higher altitudes, the density of the
atmosphere decreases, so there is less oxygen volume to draw into the cylinder. This means
there will be less energy for every power stroke.
Before long term storage of your power equipment product, typically 30 days or more,
perform the following:
1. Set the Fuel Valve to the "OFF" position.
2. Let the unit continue to run until it stops itself, burning all of the fuel in the fuel system.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the "STOP" position.

Manual's Maintenance section. Spray a lubricant, such as WD40®, into the Spark Plug hole
to lubricate the top of the piston and walls of the cylinder. Replace the Spark Plug.
