Petrol tank filter
1.Stop the engine.
2.Turn the fuel cock lever to the ‘off’ position.
3.The petrol tank filter is located directly under the petrol cap. This protects impurities entering the fuel tank during refuelling.
4.Remove the filter & wash thoroughly in a solvent.
5.Re-assemble.
Cleaning
1.Keep your machine clean. The outside of the machine can be cleaned using a damp soft cloth with a mild detergent if required. Never use water to clean the generator as it may cause damage to internal parts.
2.Some maintenance products and solvents may damage the plastic parts; these include products containing benzene, trichloroethylene, chloride and ammonia.
3.Use a vacuum to clean air inlet and outlet louvres of the alternator.
4.Take special care to keep the ventilation inlets/outlets free from obstruction; cleaning with a soft brush followed by a compressed air jet will usually be sufficient to ensure acceptable internal cleanliness.
5.Wear eye protection when carrying out cleaning.
Repairs
1.Only an authorised service centre should repair the generator.
