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.
CLEANING YOUR 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.
CHECKING/ADDING OIL
Check the oil level before each use and every 8 hours of operation (refer to Table 4). The oil capacity of the gen-
erator engine is 34.0 fl. oz. (1 L). Add oil when the oil level is low. For the proper type and weight of oil refer to page
13, Fig. 3. This is a critical step for proper engine starting. The generator is equipped with a with low-oil shut
down to protect it from running without oil.
To check the oil level and/or add oil refer to "Step 1 - Add/Check Oil."
