Section 4 Maintenance
NOTE: Proper maintenance and proper and safe operation is crucial to the life of the generator. Genuine Generac parts MUST be used
to ensure warranty coverage.
NOTE: All service to this generator must be performed by a qualified service person only.
4.1 — Performing Scheduled Maintenance
It is important to perform Maintenance as specified in the Service Schedule for proper generator operation and to ensure that the generator com-
plies with the applicable emission standards for the duration of its useful life. Service and repairs may be performed by any qualified service per-
son or repair shop. Additionally, emissions critical maintenance must be performed as scheduled in order for the Emissions Warranty to be valid.
Emissions critical maintenance consists of servicing the air filter and spark plugs in accordance with the Service Schedule. The Control Panel will
prompt for break-in or regular maintenance, when it is required, to be performed. Break-in maintenance consists of the oil change, valve clear-
ance and tune-up. Regular maintenance includes the oil, tune-up, air cleaner, spark plug and valve clearance.
NOTE: The control panel Maintenance Due light will flash when the initial 20 hour break-in interval has been reached. The same light
will be lit solid when following regular maintenance intervals are required (every 1 year/100 hours).
4.1.1 — Clearing a Maintenance Due Condition
After Performing maintenance, the Maintenance Due light must be cleared. To reset the Maintenance Due light, the generator must be in OFF
mode. Set the Generator to OFF and press the OFF button to reset Maintenance Due. If an alarm condition exists, the alarm condition must be
cleared prior to resetting the Maintenance Due light.
