Transportation
To prevent fuel spillage when transporting or during temporary
storage, the generating set should be secured upright in its normal
operating position, with the engine switch OFF. The fuel valve lever
should be turned OFF.
WARNING
When transporting:
Do not overfill the tank. Do not operate the generating set
while it is on vehicle. Take the generating set off the vehicle
and use it in a well-ventilated place. Avoid a place exposed
to direct sunlight when putting the generating set on a
vehicle. If the generating set is left in an enclosed vehicle
for many hours, high temperature inside the vehicle could
cause fuel to vaporize resulting in a possible explosion.
Do not drive on a rough road for an extended period with
the generating set on board. If you must transport the
generating set on a rough road, drain the fuel from the
generating set beforehand.

Removing from Storage

If the generator has been improperly stored for a long period
of time with petrol in the petrol tank and/or carburetor, all fuel
must be drained and the carburetor must be thoroughly cleaned.
This process involves technically advanced tasks. For assistance
please call our Technical Support Team at +44(0)-1942-715-407.
If the petrol tank and carburetor were properly emptied of all
petrol prior to the generator being stored, follow the below steps
when removing from storage.
1. Be sure the fuel dial is in the "STOP" position.
2. Add petrol to the generator according to Add Fuel.
3. Turn the dial to the petrol "RUN" position.
4. After 5 minutes check the carburetor and air filter areas for
any leaking petrol. If any leaks are found, the carburetor will
need to be disassembled and cleaned or replaced. If no petrol
leaks are found, turn the fuel dial to the "STOP" position.
5. Check engine oil level and add clean, fresh oil if needed. See
Oil Specifications for proper oil type.
6. Check and clear air filter of any obstructions such as bugs or
cobwebs. If necessary, clean air filter according to Cleaning
the Air Filter.
7. Start the generator according to Starting the Engine.
Generator exhaust contains odorless and colorless carbon
monoxide gas. Breathing carbon monoxide will cause nausea,
dizziness, fainting or death. If you start to feel dizzy or weak,
get to fresh air immediately.
To avoid accidental or unintended ignition of your generator
during periods of storage, the following precautions should be
followed:
