GENERAL MAINTENANCE
RECOMMENDATIONS
The generator warranty does not cover items that have
been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive
full value from the warranty, operator must maintain
generator as instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to
properly maintain your generator.
All adjustments in this section should be made at least
once each season. Follow the requirements in the
“Maintenance Schedule” chart shown below in Figure 11.
NOTE: Once a year you should clean or replace the spark
plug and replace the air filter. A new spark plug and clean
air filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and help your
engine run better and last longer.
