8. Storing the generating set
Generating sets, which are to remain unused for a long period of time must undergo certain procedures, in order to keep
them in good condition. Check that the storage area is not dusty or humid. Clean the exterior of the generating set and
apply rustproofing product.
Pour Briggs & Stratton additive (part no. 5041) into the fuel tank.
Remove the spark plug, pour approximately 15 ml of oil into the cylinder and then refit the spark plug.
Run the motor for a few seconds to circulate the additive around the carburettor and to distribute the oil around the cylinder.
Change the motor oil.
Clean the generating set.
Store the generating set in a clean and dry location (the generating set can be stored in these conditions for a maximum of two
years).
