Storage

The generator should be started at least once every seven days and 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 Cleaning.

•Check that cooling air slots and openings on generator are open and unobstructed.

Long Term Storage Instructions

Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel causes acid and gum deposits to form in the fuel system or on essential carburetor parts. To keep fuel fresh, use Briggs

&Stratton FRESH START™ fuel stabilizer, available as a liquid additive or a drip concentrate cartridge.

There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a fuel stabilizer is added according to instructions. Run the engine for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout the fuel system. The engine and fuel can then be stored up to 24 months.

If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel stabilizer, it must be drained into an approved container. Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of a fuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended to maintain freshness.

warning

Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.

Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

WHEN STORING FUEL OR EQUIPMENT WITH FUEL IN TANK

•Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, clothes dryers, or other appliances that have pilot light or other ignition source because they can ignite fuel vapors.

WHEN DRAINING FUEL

•Turn generator OFF and let it cool at least 2 minutes before removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank.

•Drain fuel tank outdoors.

•Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other ignition sources.

•DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.

Storing the Engine

See the engine operator’s manual for instructions on how to properly prepare the engine for storage.

Other Storage Tips

1.DO NOT store fuel from one season to another unless it has been treated as described in Long Term Storage Instructions.

2.Replace fuel container if it starts to rust. Rust and/or dirt in fuel can cause problems if it’s used with this unit.

3.Cover unit with a suitable protective cover that does not retain moisture.

warning

Storage covers can be flammable.

•DO NOT place a storage cover over a hot generator.

•Let equipment cool for a sufficient time before placing the cover on the equipment.

4.Store generator in clean, dry area.
