MAINTENANCE
3. Reinstall the fuel screen filter and the fuel tank cap.
4. Start the generator and allow it to run until the generator
engine stops.
5. Push the battery switch to the OFF position.
6. Disconnect the battery.
VALVE CLEARANCE
Checking and adjusting valve clearance must be done
when the engine is cold.
Perform this procedure on both cylinders.
1. Remove the rocker arm cover and carefully remove
the gasket. If the gasket is torn or damaged, it must be
replaced.
2. Remove the spark plug so the engine can be rotated
more easily.
3. Rotate the engine to Top Dead Center (TDC) by
momentarily pushing the Start button. Looking through
the spark plug hole, the piston should be at the top (both
valves are closed).
4. Both the rocker arms should be loose at TDC on the
compression stroke. If they are not, rotate the engine
360°.
5. Insert a feeler gauge between the rocker arm and the
valve stem to measure valve clearance.

pivot adjusting nut to the specified torque.
