PREPARATION FOR STORAGE
The following procedures should be followed prior to storage of your generator for periods of 3 months or longer.
1. Drain fuel from fuel tank carefully. Gasoline left in the fuel tank will eventually
deteriorate making engine-starting difficult.
2. Loosen the drain screw on the bottom of the carburetor float chamber, and
drain the fuel completely.
3. Change engine oil.
4. Check for loose bolts and screws, tighten them if necessary.
5. Clean generator thoroughly with oiled cloth. Spray with preservative if
available.
NEVER USE WATER TO CLEAN GENERATOR!
6. Pull starter handle until resistance is felt, leaving handle in that position.
7. Store generator in a well ventilated, low humidity area.

SERVICE AND REPAIRS

All quality generators will eventually require servicing or replacement of parts because of wear from normal use.
To assure that only authorized replacement parts will be used, all service and repairs must be performed by a
HITACHI AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER, ONLY.
