Snapper 3500W Portable Generator

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 “Generator Cleaning”.

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

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.

Engine Storage

See engine operator’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 fuel. 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 fuel 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 unit in a clean and dry area.
