Generac Power Systems Q-70G Series User Manual

25-HOUR BREAK IN PERIOD
The first 25 hours of operation are for “breaking in” the
new generator. Correctly breaking in the generator is
essential to minimize fuel consumption and provide
maximum engine performance. During this 25-hour
break in period, comply with the following:
• Run the unit at varying electrical loads, to help seat
engine piston rings properly.
• For the 75 hours of operation after the “break in"
period, avoid light electrical loads. Load the generr
ator at 50% (or more) of its rated wattage capacity.
Repeated light loads during the break in period can
cause improper seating of engine piston rings,
which could cause blowby and nigh oil consump¬
tion.
• During the break in period, check engine oil level
frequently. It is normal for oil consumption to be
high during the breaking in period.
• After the 25-hour break-in period, complete the
tasks recommended under "25-Hour Check Up."
25-HOUR CHECK UP
After the 25-hour break-ln period, contact an authorized
service facility for the following maintenance. The vehi¬
cle owner is responsible for any charges:
• Change engine crankcase oil and oil filter.
• Check all fluid levels.
• Inspect cooling and ventilation openings on the
vehicle.
• Check engine carburetor adjustments.
• Check engine ignition system.
• Inspect entire electrical system.
• Inspect the engine exhaust system.
OPERATION IN HIGH GRASS OR BRUSH
Never operate the generator while the vehicle is parked
in high grass, weeds, brush or leaves. Such materials
can ignite and bum from the heat of the exhaust system.
The generator exhaust system becomes extremely hot
during operation and remains hot for a long time after it
has shut down.
