If you are going to store your generator for more than 30 days, use the following information as a guide to prepare the generator for storage.

STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: Never store generator with fuel in the tank indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas, where fumes can reach an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or other gas appliances.

Engine Preparation

•Add fuel stabilizer to fuel tank to minimize the formation of fuel gum deposits during storage.

•Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer to allow it to enter the fuel system.

•Next shut off engine.

•Disconnect the spark plug wire and remove the spark plug.

•Add one teaspoon of oil through the spark plug hole.

•Place rag over spark plug hole and pull the recoil a few times to lubricate the combustion chamber.

•Replace the spark plug, but do not connect the spark plug wire.

NOTE: If a fuel stabilizer is not used, all gasoline must be drained from the tank and carburetor to prevent gum deposits from forming on these parts and causing possible malfunction of the engine.

Generator

•Clean the generator as outlined on Page 13 (Generator Maintenance)

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