DRAINING THE FUEL TANK
Clean the fuel tank each year or before storing the generator for extended periods of time. To drain the fuel tank
and carburetor:
1. Turn the fuel valve to the “OFF” position.
2. Remove the fuel line between the fuel valve and carburetor.
CAUTION: A small amount of fuel may leak from the hose during removal.
3. Attach a fuel line (not included with the generator) to the exposed end of the fuel valve.
4. Position the fuel line into an appropriate container and open the fuel valve.
5. Once the fuel is drained, shut off the fuel valve.
6. Start and run the engine until the fuel runs out.
7. Remove the fuel filter cup (see Fuel Filter Cup Cleaning on page 21).
8. Empty the fuel filter cup of any fuel and clean.
9. Reinstall the fuel filter cup.
10. Store the emptied gasoline in a suitable place.
CAUTION: Do not store fuel for more than 3 months.
