Since the fuel (gasoline) will deteriorate with time, replace fuel
(gasoline) with fresh fuel periodically; every three months or add a
fuel stabilizer.
Spark Arrester
The spark arrester must be cleaned regularly to keep it functioning as
designed. A clogged spark arrester:
• Prevents the flow of exhaust gas
• Reduces engine output
• Increases fuel consumption
• Makes starting difficult
If engine has been running, the muffler and the spark arrester will
be very hot. Allow the muffler to cool before cleaning the spark ar-
rester.
Clean The Spark Arrester Screen
1. Shut off generator and allow the engine and muffler to cool down
completely before servicing spark arrestor (located on the back of
the muffler).
2. Remove the clamp and spark arrestor screen.
3. Clean the spark arrestor screen with a small wire brush.
4. Replace the spark arrestor if it is damaged.
5. Installation of the spark arrestor screen is the reverse of the re-
moval.
Valve Clearance
After the first 50 hours of operation, check the valve clearance in the
engine and adjust if necessary.
Important: If feeling uncomfortable about doing this procedure or
the proper tools are not available, please take the generator to the
nearest service center to have the valve clearance adjusted. This is a
very important step to ensure long life of the engine.
Transporting
When transporting the generator, make sure that the fuel valve is in
the OFF postion. Draining gasoline from the tank is recommended.
