Transporting and Storage
To prevent fuel spillage when transporting or during temporary storage:
• The generator should be secured upright in its normal operating
position, with the engine switch OFF.
• The fuel cap vent lever is turned to the OFF position.
• Allow the engine to cool well before turning the fuel cap vent lever to
the OFF position.
When Transporting generator:
• Do not overfill the tank.(There should be no fuel in the filler neck).
• Do not operate generators while it is on a vehicle. Take the generator off
the vehicle and use it in a well-ventilated place.
• Avoid a place exposed to direct sunlight when putting the generator on
a vehicle. If the generator is left in an enclosed vehicle for many hours,
high temperature inside the vehicle could cause fuel to vaporize
resulting in a possible explosion.
• Do not drive on a rough road for an extended period with the
generator on board. If you must transport the generator on a rough road,
drain the fuel from the generator beforehand.
Before storing the unit for an extended period:
1. Be sure the storage area is free of excessive humidity and dust.
2. Drain the fuel.
WARNINg
Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive under
certain conditions.
Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area.
3. Completely drain the fuel from the tank. Open the fuel valve, stat the
engine and operate it in the idle position until all remaining fuel is gone
and the engine stops automatically.
4. Discharge oil.
5. Remove spark plug and fill cylinder with 2cc’s fresh oil. Pull start motor
3-4 times to discharge the remaining oil. Then reinstall the spark plug.
6. Pull the staring cord slowly until resistance is strong. At this time, the
piston is moving to the top of the compression stroke and the valves
will be closed.
