Operating Instructions

Maintenance

INFREQUENT USAGE

If the generator is used infrequently, starting difficulty may occur. To help prevent difficulty starting, the generator should be run for approximately 30 minutes per week.

STORAGE

If the generator is not to be used for extended periods of time, the following pre-storage procedures should be performed:

1.Make sure engine oil is filled to the proper level.

2.Drain all fuel from the tank, lines, and carburetor.

3.Remove the spark plug, and pour approximately one teaspoon of oil into the spark plug hole.

4.Pull the starter cord several times to spread the oil throughout the cylinder.

5.Slowly pull the starter cord, until resistance is felt. This indicates that

the piston is moving upward on the compression cycle, and the intake and exhaust valves are closed. (The piston pushes a small amount of air from the spark plug hole on compression).

Refer to the engine manual that accompanies this unit for instructions regarding maintenance of engine components.
