Engine gross horsepower will decrease 3-1/2% for each 1,000 feet (300 meters) above sea level and 1% for each 10° F (5.6° C) above 77° F (25° C). It should operate satisfactorily at an angle up to 15°. 12 MAINTENANCE GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS Regular maintenance will improve the performance and extend the life of the generator. See any authorized dealer for service. The generator’s warranty does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence.To receive full value from the warranty, the operator must maintain generator as instructed in this manual. Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to properly maintain your generator. All service and adjustments should be made at least once each season. Follow the requirements in the “Maintenance Schedule” chart below in Figure 9. NOTE: Once a year you should clean or replace the spark plug and replace the air filter.A new spark plug and clean air filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and help your engine run better and last longer. GENERATOR MAINTENANCE Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean and dry. Operate and store the unit in a clean dry environment where it will not be exposed to excessive dust, dirt, moisture or any corrosive vapors. Cooling air slots in the generator must not become clogged with snow, leaves, or any other foreign material. Check the cleanliness of the generator frequently and clean when dust, dirt, oil, moisture or other foreign substances are visible on its exterior surface. NOTE: DO NOT use water or other liquids to clean generator. Liquids can enter the engine fuel system causing poor performance and / or failure to occur. In addition, if liquids enters the generator through cooling air slots, some of the liquid will be retained in voids and cracks of the rotor and stator winding insulation. Liquid and dirt buildup on the generator internal windings will eventually decrease the insulation resistance of these windings. Generator Cleaning Daily or before use, clean accumulated debris from generator. Keep linkage, spring and controls clean. Keep area around and behind muffler free from any combustible debris. Generator parts should be kept clean to reduce the risk of overheating and ignition of accumulated debris. • Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean. • Use a soft bristle brush to loosen caked on dirt, oil, etc. • Use a vacuum cleaner to pick up loose dirt and debris. Figure 9 – Maintenance Schedule FILL IN DATES AS YOU COMPLETE REGULAR SERVICE MAINTENANCE TASK SERVICE DATES Before Each Use Every 25 Hours or Yearly Every 50 Hours or Yearly Every 100 Hours or Yearly SERVICE DATES Check oil level X Clean debris X Service air cleaner X. Change engine oil X. Service spark plug X Service spark arrester X Clean cooling system X. Prepare for storage If unit is to remain idle for longer than 30 days. . Change oil after the first (5) operating hours and every 50 hours or every year, whichever occurs first, thereafter. Change sooner when operating under dirty or dusty conditions. . Replace more often under dirty or dusty conditions. 13 MAINTENANCE • Use low pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) to blow away dirt. Inspect cooling air slots and openings on the generator.These openings must be kept clean and unobstructed. CAUTION Improper treatment of generator can damage it and shorten its life. • • DO NOT expose generator to excessive moisture, dust, dirt, or corrosive vapors. DO NOT insert any objects through cooling slots. ENGINE MAINTENANCE WARNING Unintentional sparking can result in fire or electric shock. WHEN ADJUSTING OR MAKING REPAIRS TOYOUR GENERATOR • Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and place the wire where it cannot contact spark plug. WHEN TESTING FOR ENGINE SPARK • Use approved spark plug tester. • DO NOT check for spark with spark plug removed. Oil Oil Recommendations NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use only high quality detergent oil classified “For Service SF, S...
