Maintenance
Cleaning the Generator
Clean the unit whenever dust, dirt, oil, moisture, or other
foreign material is visible on its exterior or interior surfaces.
The air inlets and outlets on the enclosure must not become
clogged with snow, leaves, or any other foreign material. To
prevent generator damage caused by overheating, keep the
air inlets and outlets clean and unobstructed at all times.
NOTICE DO NOT use direct spray from a garden hose to
clean generator. Water can enter the engine and generator
and cause damage.
1. Press and hold the OFF button.
2. Disconnect the negative ( - ) cable at the battery.
3. Clean generator as follows:
• Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
• Use a soft, bristle brush and vacuum cleaner to loosen
and pick up dirt and debris.
• Use low pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) to blow
away dirt and debris.
• Clean the air inlets and outlets of any snow, leaves,
or debris.
To prevent generator damage caused
by overheating,
these openings must be kept
unobstructed.
4. Connect the negative ( - ) cable at the battery.
5. Press the AUTO button.
Engine Air Cleaner
1. Press and hold the OFF button.
2. Disconnect the negative ( - ) cable at the battery.
3. Remove filter cartridge - Remove the service cover by
disengaging three clips and detaching cover, starting
with the bottom two clips and the top clip last. Gently
move the end of the filter back and forth, then rotate
while pulling straight out.
4. Clean outlet tube and check Vacuator™ valve - Use
a clean cloth to wipe the filter sealing surface and the
outlet tube surfaces. Make sure that all contaminant is
removed before the new filter is inserted. Be careful to
not damage the sealing area on the tube.
Visually check and physically squeeze Vacuator valve
attached to service cover to make sure it is flexible and
not inverted, damaged or plugged.
5. Clean filter - Use a soft bristle brush to loosen dirt
and a vacuum cleaner to remove dirt and debris. Low
pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) may also be used to
blow away dirt. Replace filter cartridge if any holes are
detected in filter media.
6. Install clean filter properly - Insert the filter carefully.
Seat the filter by hand, making certain it is completely
into the air cleaner housing before securing the cover
in place. To complete a tight seal, apply pressure by
hand at the outer rim of the filter, not the flexible center.
(Avoid pushing on the center of the urethane end cap.)
No cover pressure is required to hold the seal.
NEVER use the service cover to push the filter into
place! Using the cover to push the filter in could cause
damage to the housing, cover, or fasteners and will
void the warranty. If the service cover hits the filter
before it is fully in place, remove the cover and push
the filter (by hand) further into the air cleaner and try
again. The cover should go on with no extra force.
7. Reinstall service cover - Once the filter is in place,
reinstall the service cover, positioning the cover with
the arrow and the word TOP to the top. Fasten the top
clip first, the bottom two clips last. Make sure that all
mounting bands, clamps, bolts, and connections in the
entire air cleaner system are tight and verify absence of
holes in piping - repair if needed.
8. Connect the negative ( - ) cable at the battery.
9. Press the AUTO button.
