Inspection, Cleaning, and
Maintenance
Before each use, inspect the generator. Check for:
- Loose screws
- Misaligned or binding moving parts
- Cracked or broken parts
- Damaged electrical wiring
- Any other condition that may affect safe operation.
If an engine problem occurs, have it checked by a qualified service
technical before further use. Do not use damaged equipment.
Before each use, make sure the engine’s oil and gas levels are
adequate. If necessary, fill the crankcase until the oil level is even with
the oil hill hole and/or fill the fuel tank.
Before each use, remove all debris with a soft brush, rag, or vacuum.
Lubricate all moving parts using a premium quality, lightweight machine
oil.
WARNING! ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE ENGINE POWER SWITCH IS
IN ITS “OFF” POSITION. DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG WIRE FROM
THE ENGINE. AND ALLOW SUFFICIENT TIME FOR THE ENGINE AND
GENERATOR TO COMPLETELY COOL BEFORE PERFORMING ANY
INSPECTIONS, MAINTENANCE, OR CLEANING.
