Caution
4.5 Transportation
When moving, storing or operating the generator, do not place it on its side. The engine oil may leak
and damage the engine or your property.
If the generator is constantly running, allow it to cool before being loaded onto the transport vehicle.
Hot engines and waste systems may cause burns and can cause certain materials to ignite. To prevent
fuel spills during transport, position the generator vertically in the standard operating position, and
turn the engine switch and the fuel cap breather valve knob to the “OFF” position.
During transportation, take care not to let the generator fall or be impacted.
If the generator is stored with fuel in the fuel tank and carburetor, conduct servicing as required in the
table below before using again.
