MAINTENANCE
SPARK ARRESTOR SERVICE
Check and clean the spark arrestor after every 100 hours
of use or six months. Failure to clean the spark arrestor will
result in degraded engine performance.
1. Place the generator on a level surface and allow the
muffler to cool before servicing the spark arrestor.
2. Remove the cover screws and the muffler cover. Use a
screw driver to remove the spark arrestor.
3. Carefully remove the carbon deposits from the spark
arrestor screen with a wire brush. The spark arrestor
must be free of breaks and tears. Replace the spark
arrestor if damaged.
4. Reinstall the spark arrestor and muffler cover.
BATTERY MAINTENANCE
The battery shipped with the generator has been fully
charged. A battery may lose some charge when not in use
for prolonged periods of time. If the battery is unable to
crank the engine, plug the included 12V charger into the
battery charging port on the control panel.
Note: If the generator is not run, charge the battery
overnight once a month.
The supplied battery charger is not a trickle charger
and is not intended for continuous use. Do not use the
battery charger for more than 8 hours (overnight) to
prevent overcharging the battery.
Note: Once started, the generator will charge the battery
after 30–60 minutes of use. If you do not regularly
run the generator, charge the battery overnight once
a month to keep it ready for use. Charge the battery
in a dry location.
