3.1 PERFORMING SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE

It is important to perform service as specified in the Maintenance
Schedule for proper generator operation, and to ensure that the
generator complies with the applicable emission standards for the
duration of its useful life. Service and repairs may be performed by
any capable person or repair shop. Additionally, emissions critical
maintenance must be performed as scheduled in order for the
Emissions Warranty to be valid. Emissions critical maintenance
consists of servicing the air filter and spark plugs in accordance
with the Maintenance Schedule.

3.2 MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

Follow the calendar intervals. More frequent service is required
when operating in adverse conditions noted below.
Check Oil Level
Check Valve Clearance
Service Air Filter
Replace Spark Plug
* Change oil and oil filter every month when operating under heavy load or in high
temperatures.
** Clean more often under dirty or dusty operating conditions. Replace air filter
parts if they cannot be adequately cleaned.
*** Check valve clearance and adjust if necessary after first 50 hours of
operation and every 100 hours thereafter.
