Generator Maintenance
Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean
and dry. Operate and store the unit in a clean dry
environment where it will not be exposed to excessive
dust, dirt, moisture or any corrosive vapors. Cooling air
slots in the generator must not become clogged with
snow, leavesor any other foreign material.
NOTE: Do Not use a garden hose to clean generator.
Water can enter engine fuel system and cause problems. In
addition, if water enters generator through cooling air slots,
some of the water will be retained in voids and cracks of
the rotor and stator winding insulation.Water and dirt
buildup on the generator internal windings will eventually
decrease the insulation resistance of these windings.
To Clean the Generator
• Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
• A soft bristle brush may be used to loosen caked on dirt
or oil.
• A vacuum cleaner may be used to pick up loose dirt and
debris.
• Low pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) may be used to
blow away dirt. Inspect cooling air slots and opening on
generator.These openings must be kept clean and
unobstructed.
STO RAG E
The generator should be started at least once every seven
claysand allowed to run at least 30 minutes. If this cannot
be done and you must store the unit for more than
30 days,use the following guidelines to prepare it for
storage.
Generator Storage
• Clean the generator as outlined in "To Clean the
Generator"
• Check that cooling air slots and openings on generator
are open and unobstructed.
_ CAUTION! Storage covers can be flammable.
Do Not place a storage cover over a hot
generator. Let the unit coot for a sufficient time
before placing the cover on the unit.
Engine Storage
See engine owner's
manual for
instructions.
Other Storage Tips
• To prevent gum from forming in fuel system or on
essential carburetor parts, add fuel stabilizer into fuel
tank and fill with fresh gasoline. Run the unit for several
minutes to circulate the additive through the carburetor.
The unit and fuel can then be stored for up to
24 months. Fuel stabilizer can be purchased locally.
• Do Not store gasoline from one season to another
unless it has been treated as described above.
• Replace fuel container if it starts to rust. Rust and/or dirt
in fuel can cause problems if it's used with this unit.
• Store in clean and dry area.
