PRIMEPACT 50 and 70 (50Hz) Recreational Vehicle Generators

1.6SPECIFICATIONS

◆1.6.1 FUEL REQUIREMENTS

These generators are equipped with a gasoline fuel sys- tem. Depending on the installation, the generator may have either a separate fuel tank, or it may “share” the vehicle engine’s fuel tank.

NOTE:

Some installations using a “shared” fuel tank may have a generator fuel pickup tube that is shorter than the vehicle engine’s pickup tube. Such an arrangement causes the generator engine to “run out of gas” while adequate fuel for the vehicle remains in the tank.

To reduce lead and carbon deposits use high quality UNLEADED gasoline with the generator. Leaded REG- ULAR grade gasoline is an acceptable substitute.

NOTE:

Using unleaded gasoline contributes to longer engine valve life by reducing lead and carbon deposits.

Generac does not recommend using any gasoline containing alcohol (such as “gasohol”). If you use any gasoline containing alcohol, it must not contain more than 10 percent ethanol, and it must be removed from the generator during storage. Do NOT use any gasoline containing methanol. If you use gasoline with alcohol, inspect more frequently for fuel leaks and other abnormalities.
