GENERATOR MAINTENANCE

Proper care will ensure maximum performance of your generator.
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
snow, leaves, or any other foreign material.
Check the cleanliness of the generator frequently and clean when
dust, dirt, oil, moisture or other foreign substances are visible on
its exterior surface.
Never insert any object or tool through the air cooling slots,
even if the engine is not running.
NOTE:
DO NOT use a garden hose to clean the generator. Water
can enter the engine fuel system and cause problems. In
addition, if water enters the generator through cooling air
slots, some water will be retained in voids and crevices 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.

CLEANING THE GENERATOR

1. Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
2. A soft, bristle brush may be used to loosen caked on dirt, oil,
etc.
3. A vacuum cleaner may be used to pick up loose dirt and
debris.
4. Low pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) may be used to
blow away dirt. Inspect cooling air slots and openings
on the generator. These openings must be kept clean and
unobstructed.
5. Inspect the vent hoses on the left side of the generator. Make
sure the hoses protrude through the slots below the door and
that the ends are open and free of debris.
