LOW LOAD RUNNING:
Operating the generator at low load levels for
extended periods can result in high levels of
carbon build up in the engine and exhaust
system which can lead to excessive smoking,
reduced efciency and overheating.
If the generator is not required switch it off and
avoid running with light or no load wherever
possible. Also see Maintenance Section.
