Cleaning
1. Keep your machine clean. The outside of the machine
can be cleaned using a damp soft cloth with a mild
detergent if required. Never use water to clean the
generator as it may cause damage to internal parts.
2. Some maintenance products and solvents may damage
the plastic parts; these include products containing
benzene, trichloroethylene, chloride and ammonia.
3. Use a vacuum to clean air inlet and outlet louvres of
the alternator.
4. Take special care to keep the ventilation inlets/outlets
free from obstruction; cleaning with a soft brush followed
by a compressed air jet will usually be sufficient to ensure
acceptable internal cleanliness.
5. Wear eye protection when carrying out cleaning.
