carburettor malfunction, service the
air cleaner regularly.

operating the generator in extremely
dusty areas.

flammable solvent to clean the filter
element can cause a fire or explosion.
Use only soapy water or non-
flammable solvent.

without the air cleaner. Rapid engine
wear will result.
1° Unsnap the air cleaner cover clips,
remove the air cleaner cover, and

household detergent and warm water,
then rinse thoroughly; or wash in non-

oil and squeeze out the excess oil.
The engine will smoke during initial
start-up it too much oil is left in the
element.
