GENERATOR
MAINTENANCE
The generator warranty does not cover items that have
been subjected to operator abuse or negligence.To receive
full value from the warranty, the operator must maintain
the system as instructed in the engine owner's manual.
All adjustments should be made at least once each season.
Follow the requirements in the engine owner's manual.
Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean
and dry. Operate the unit in an environment where it will
not be exposed to excessive dust, dirt, moisture or any
corrosive vapors. Cooling air louvers on the enclosure
must not become clogged with snow, leaves, or any other
foreign material.
Check the cleanliness of the unit frequently and clean when
dust, dirt, oil, moisture or other foreign substances are
visible on its exterior surface.
NOTE: Do Not use direct spray from a garden hose to
clean generator.Water can enter the engine and cause
problems. In addition, if water enters the generator through
cooling air slots, some water will be retained in voids and
cracks may develop in the rotor and stator winding
insulation.Water and dirt buildup on the generator internal
windings will eventually decrease the insulation resistance
of these windings.

To Clean the Generator

CAUTION!
Never insert any object or tool
through the air cooling slots, even if the engine is
not running.
