VI. Storage and transportation
Storage
The generating set should be started at least once
every 2 weeks and allowed to run for at least 20
minutes. Follow the instructions below for longer
term storage if the generating set will be out of
service for 2 months or more.
Fire or explosion
Gasoline is highly flammable and extremely
explosive.
Empty the fuel tank and shut off fuel valve before
storing or transporting this generating set.
1. Allow the generating set to cool completely
before storage.
2. Clean the generating set according to
instructions in Maintenance section.
3. Drain all fuel completely from the fuel tank,
fuel hose and carburetor to prevent gum from
forming.
4. Close the fuel switch to cut down fuel supply.
5. Remove the appearance cover plate. Unscrew
the oil dipstick and slightly tilt the whole set to
pour out the oil.
6. Remove the spark plug and pour about 15 ml
of oil into the cylinder. Pull the recoil starter
slightly to distribute the oil and lubricate the
cylinder. And then attach the spark plug.
7.
Transportation
To prevent fuel spillage when transporting or during
temporary storage, the generating set should be
secured upright in its normal operating position,
with the engine switch OFF. The two-in-one switch
should be turned OFF.
DANGER
When transporting:
Do not overfill the tank. Do not operate the
generating set while it is on vehicle. Take the
generating set off the vehicle and use it in a well-
ventilated place. Avoid a place exposed to direct
sunlight when putting the generating set on a
vehicle. If the generating set is left in an enclosed
vehicle for many hours, high temperature inside
the vehicle could cause fuel to vaporize resulting
in a possible explosion. Do not drive on a rough
road for an extended period with the generating
set on board. If you must transport the generating
set on a rough road, drain the fuel from the
generating set beforehand.
Store the unit in a clean, dry area out of direct
sunlight.
