GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
The warranty of the generator does not cover items that have been subjected to
operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, operator
must maintain the generator as instructed in this manual.
ENGINE MAINTENANCE

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 vapors. 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 gen head.
