Generator maintenance
Your generator should be kept clean and dry at all times.
The generator should not be stored or operated in
environments that includes excessive moisture, dust or any
corrosive vapours. If these substances are on the generator,
clean with a cloth or soft bristle brush. Do not use a garden
hose or anything with water pressure to clean the generator.
Water may enter the cooling air slots and could possibly
damage the rotor, stator and the internal windings of the
generator head.

If you are going to store your generator for more than
30 days, use the following information as a guide to
prepare the generator for storage.
