The Owner/Operator is responsible for making sure
that all periodic maintenance tasks are completed on a
timely basis; that all discrepancies are corrected; and
that the unit is kept clean and properly stored. NEVER

Used motor oil has been shown to cause skin cancer in
certain laboratory animals.
Thoroughly wash exposed areas with soap and water.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
DON'T POLLUTE. CONSERVE
RESOURCES. RETURN USED OIL TO
COLLECTION CENTERS.
Generator Maintenance
Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit
clean and dry. Operate and store the unit in a clean
dry environment where it will not be exposed to
excessive dust, dirt, moisture or any corrosive vapors.
Cooling air slots in the generator must not become
clogged with dirt, leaves or any other foreign material.
NOTE: DO NOT use a garden hose to clean
generator. Water can enter engine fuel system and
cause problems. In addition, if water enters generator
through cooling air slots, some of the water will be
retained in voids and cracks of the rotor and stator
winding insulation. Water and dirt buildup on the
generator internal windings will eventually decrease
the insulation resistance of these windings.
WARNING
WHEN ADJUSTING OR MAKING REPAIRS TO YOUR
GENERATOR
,, Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and
place the wire where it cannot contact spark plug.
WHEN TESTING FOR ENGINE SPARK
Use approved spark plug tester.
