Cleaning the Generator
Always try to use your generator in a cool dry place. In the event your generator
becomes dirty you may clean the exterior with one or more of the following:
- a damp cloth
- a soft brush
- a vacuum
pressurized air
-
Never clean your generator with a bucket of water or a hose. Water can get inside the
working parts of the generator and cause a short circuit or corrosion.
Checking the Oil
The generator is equipped with an automatic shutoff to protect it from running on low oil.
Nonetheless, you should check the oil level of the generator before each use to ensure
that the generator crankcase has a sufficient amount. To check the oil level:
1. Make sure the generator is on a level surface.
2. Unscrew the oil filler/dipstick cap (see figure 13).
3. With a dry cloth, wipe the oil off of the stick on the inside of the cap.
4. Insert the dipstick as if you were replacing the cap and then remove again.
There should now be oil on the stick. If there is no oil on the stick, or oil only at
the very end of the stick, you should add oil until the engine crankcase is filled.
See "Changing/ Adding Oil" in this section.
5. Be sure to replace cap when finished checking oil.
