MAINTENANCE
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission control devices
and systems may be performed by any engine repair establishment or
individual, using parts that are ‘‘certified’’ to EPA standards.
The Importance of Maintenance
Improper maintenance, or failure to correct a problem before
operation, can cause a malfunction in which you can be seriously hurt
or killed.
Always follow the inspection and maintenance recommendations and
schedules in this owner’s manual.
Good maintenance is essential for safe, economical, and trouble-free
operation. It will also help reduce air pollution.
To help you properly care for your generator, the following pages
include a maintenance schedule, routine inspection procedures, and
simple maintenance procedures using basic hand tools. Other service
tasks that are more difficult or require special tools are best handled
by professionals and are normally performed by a Honda technician or
other qualified mechanic.
The maintenance schedule applies to normal operating conditions. If
you operate your generator under severe conditions, such as
sustained high-load or high-temperature operation, or use it in
unusually wet or dusty conditions, consult your servicing dealer for
recommendations applicable to your individual needs and use.
