Clean and inspect the spark arrester as follows:

screen.

GENERAL
The generator should be started at least once every
seven days and allowed to run at least 30 minutes. If
this cannot be done and you must store the unit for
more than 30 days, use the following information as a
guide to prepare it for storage.
Long Term Storage Instructions
WARNING!
Never store engine with fuel in
tank indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated
areas where fumes may reach an open flame,
spark or pilot light as on a furnace, water heater,
clothes dryer or other gas appliance.
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in
essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel
filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also,
experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called
gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture,
which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage.
To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. Follow
these instructions:
Protect Fuel System
WARNING!
Drain fuel into approved container
outdoors, away from open flame. Be sure
engine is cool. Do Not smoke.
Remove all gasoline from the fuel tank to prevent
gum deposits from forming on these parts and
causing possible engine malfunction.
Run engine until engine stops from lack of fuel.
