7.7. Cleaning the generating set
Remove all dust and debris from around the exhaust and clean the generating set using a cloth and a brush (cleaning with a water
jet is not recommended, and cleaning with high-pressure cleaning equipment is forbidden).
Carefully clean the motor air inlets and outlets and the alternator.
Check the general condition of the generating set and, if necessary, replace any faulty parts.
8. Storing the generating set
Generating sets which are to remain unused for a long period of time must undergo certain procedures, in order to keep them in good
condition. Check that the storage area is not dusty or humid. Clean the exterior of the generating set and apply rustproofing product.
Open the fuel tap (ON position) and drain the petrol from the tank into a suitable container.
Drain the carburettor by loosening the drain screw. Collect the petrol in a suitable container.
Change the engine oil.
Remove the spark plug and pour about 15 ml of oil into the cylinder, then refit the spark plug.
Leave the engine to run for a few moments to distribute the oil in the cylinder.
Clean the generating set and cover the engine again to protect it from dust.
Store the generating set in a clean, dry place.
