GENERATOR MAINTENANCE

Your generator should be kept clean and dry at all times. The generator should not be stored or operated in environments that includes excessive moisture, dust or any corrosive vapors. If these substances are on the generator, clean with a cloth or soft bristle brush. Do not use a garden hose or anything with water pressure to clean the generator. Water may enter the cooling air slots and could possibly damage the rotor, stator and the internal windings of the generator head.

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI receptacle)

MONTHLY: For maximum protection against electrical shock the GFCI should be tested monthly.

To test:

1.Depress the TEST button. The RESET button should extend. If the RESET button does not extend, notify a Porter-Cable Authorized Service Center.

2.To restore power, depress the RESET button firmly into the GFCI unit until an audible click is heard. If reset properly, the RESET button is flush with the surface of the test button. When the button stays in, the power is ON.

STORAGE

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.

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

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

2.Run engine at least 5 minutes after adding stabi- lizer to allow it to enter the fuel system.

3.Next shut off engine.

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

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

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

7.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 in the Maintenance Section on this manual.

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