If you will not be able to exercise the generator regularly, you
must prepare the engine for long term storage to prevent gum
deposits from forming and causing malfunction of the engine.
Prepare engine for long term storage by:
o Removing all petrol from the tank and carburettor
OR
o Adding fuel stabilizer to the petrol ( following manufacturer's
instructions)
Fuel stabilizer steps:
1. Ensure petrol tank is full.
2. Add fuel stabilizer to fuel tank.
3. Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer to allow
it to enter the fuel system.
4. Shut off engine.
5. Disconnect spark plug wire and remove spark plug.
6. Add one teaspoon oil through spark plug hole.
7. Place rag over spark plug hole and turn starter (or pull the
recoil) a few times to lubricate the combustion chamber.
8. Replace spark plug, but do not reconnect the spark plug wire.
