6.10 Transport
Let the engine cool before transporting the generator or storing
indoors, to avoid burns or fire hazards.
When transporting the generator:
6.10.1 Turn the engine fuel valve to the OFF position.
6.10.2 Position the generator level to prevent fuel from spilling.
6.10.3 Secure the generator by tying it down with a suitable rope.
When transporting the machine by hand, be sure to employ manpower
commensurate with the weight of the machine. To avoid back injury
when lifting the machine, bend the knees to pick it up rather than
bending your back only.
6.11 Troubleshooting
Problem / Symptom Reason / Remedy
If engine doesn't start, check
that:
• Engine switch is on "Start".
• Fuel valves under fuel tank and on engine are open.
• Fuel tank has fuel.
• Choke lever is in correct position. Choke should be
closed when starting a cold engine.
• All loads are disconnected from generator.
• Spark plug is in good condition.
• Spark plug cap is tight.
• Engine oil level is adequate.
If engine starts but there is no
power at receptacles, check
that:
• Circuit breaker is closed.
• Connector from generator to control panel is tight.
If engine starts but runs errati-
cally, check that:
• Hose routing from the fuel tank to the engine is cor-
rect. For proper operation, the hose must run
through the bushing in the lifting bracket. Refer to
the Parts Book for illustration.
