CLEANING THE GENERATOR
Keep the generator clean to prevent improper operation or machine damage from dirt and debris. Inspect all ventila-
tion openings on the generator. These openings must be kept clean and unobstructed.
If the generator becomes dirty, use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces. Use a soft bristle brush to loosen dirt and
oil and use a vacuum to pick up loose dirt. Use low pressure air (not to exceed 25 PSI) to blow away dirt.
DRAINING THE CARBURETOR
We recommend draining the carburetor after every use and before storing the generator. Draining the carburetor
can help prevent build-up and blockages caused by stagnant fuel inside of the carburetor.
1. Prepare an approved gasoline-storage container under the
carburetor to collect the drained fuel.
2. The carburetor can be accessed from the backside of the
generator between the engine and the air filter. To drain the
carburetor, open up the carburetor drain screw (Fig. 14 - 1)
with a Phillips-head screwdriver (not included) and drain out
any gasoline that has built up inside.
3. Once the fuel has drained, close the drain screw.
NOTE: Make sure to drain your carburetor before storing the
generator for long periods of time.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Never clean the generator when it is running! Never clean with a bucket of water or a hose. Water
can get inside the working parts of the generator and cause corrosion or a short circuit.
