PROTECTIVE TREATMENT
Place a container under the unit and remove the oil draining bolt of the
carburetor. Drain the fuel from the fuel tank and carburetor. Run the unit
again until it shuts down from lack of fuel. Store the drained fuel in a
jerrycan or other appropriate container.
To prevent fuel spillage when transporting or during temporary storage,
the generator should always be upright and the fuel valve should be
turned OFF.
The unit should be stored in a clean and dry place. It should also be kept
away from extreme temperatures. Shield the unit with the box it came in
or use a generator cover to protect it from dust build-up and moisture.

WARNING
· Do not overfill the tank.
· Do not operate the generator while it is on a vehicle. Take the
generator off the vehicle and use it in a well ventilated place.

on a vehicle. If the generator is left in an enclosed vehicle for many
hours,high temperature inside the vehicle could cause fuel to vaporize
resulting in a possible explosion.

generator on board. If you must transport the generator on a rough
road, drain the fuel from the generator beforehand.
