EXCITING THE GENERATOR:
If there is a loss of residual magnetism (voltage will not
build up), it may be necessary to re-excite the unit.
NOTE: Your generator is a brushless unit. Please contact
your local service center or the Powermate Corporation
Product Service Department for assistance with exciting
your generator.
HEAT SHIELD:
Inspect to ensure that all heat shields and heat deflectors
are intact and in place. Do not remove any parts or modify
parts. Removing or modifying parts could cause serious
damage to the unit.
ENGINE: Carburetor Icing
During the winter months, rare atmospheric conditions
may develop which will cause an icing condition in the
carburetor. If this develops, the engine may run rough, loose
power, and may stall. Call Product Service for more
information.
QUICK STARTING TIPS FOR UNITS THAT HAVE
BEEN SITTING FOR AWHILE:
If your unit has been sitting around for a long time period
and is hard to start, try doing some of these easy steps before
calling the Customer Hotline.
1. Check the oil level.
2. Replace the old fuel.
3. Change the spark plug.
4. Check the fuel lines. Make sure the fuel valve is open.
5. Check all generator parts for integrity.
6. Clean the Carburetor.

SERVICE AND STORAGE
INFREQUENT SERVICE
If the unit is used infrequently, difficult starting may
result. to eliminate hard starting, run the generator at least 30
minutes every month. Also, if the unit will not be used for
some time, it is a good idea to drain the fuel from the
carburetor and gas tank.
LONG TERM STORAGE
When the generator set is not being operated or is being
stored more than one month, follow these instructions:
1. Replenish engine oil to upper level.
2. Drain gasoline from fuel tank, fuel line and carburetor.
3. Pour about one teaspoon of engine oil through the spark
plug hole, pull the recoil starter several times and replace
the plug. Then pull the starter until you feel the piston is
on its compression stroke and leave it in that position.
This closes both the intake and exhaust valves to prevent
the inside of the cylinder from rusting.
4. Cover the unit and store in a clean, dry place that is well
ventilated away from open flame or sparks.
NOTE: We recommend always using a fuel stabilizer. A
fuel stabilizer will minimize the formulation of fuel gum
deposits during storage. The fuel stabilizer can be added
to the gasoline in the fuel tank, or into the gasoline in a
storage container.
