Spark Plug Maintenance

The spark plug is important for proper engine operation. A good spark plug should be intact,
free of deposits, and properly gapped. To inspect you spark plug:
1. Pull on the spark plug cap to remove it.
2. Unscrew the spark plug from the generator using the spark plug wrench included with
this product (see figure 20).
3. Visually inspect the spark plug. If it is cracked or chipped, discard and replace with a new
spark plug. We recommend using a F6RTC spark plug such as NGKBPR5ES.
4. Measure the plug gap with a gauge (see figure 21). The gap should be 0.7-0.8 nun (0.028—
0.031 in).
5. If you are re-using the spark plug, use a wire brush to clean any dirt from around the
spark plug base and then re-gap the spark plug.
6. Screw the spark plug back into its place on the generator using the spark plug wrench.
Replace the spark plug cap.

Emptying the Gas Tank

Before storing your generator for extended periods of time, you should drain your generator of
gasoline. To drain the generator of gas:
1. Turn the fuel valve to the "off' position.
