Maintenance Tips
-
Pre-Use Inspection – Before each use, inspect the fuel level, engine oil, air filter, spark plug, fuel lines, and battery. Ensure all components are in good condition for safe operation.
-
Engine Oil – Change the engine oil after the first 20 hours of operation, then every 100 hours or annually, whichever comes first. Always use the manufacturer-recommended oil for optimal performance.
-
Fuel System – Use fresh, unleaded fuel. If the generator is not in use for a prolonged period, drain the fuel tank to avoid fuel deterioration. Use a fuel stabilizer if storing the generator with fuel for extended periods.
-
Air Filter – Clean the air filter every 50 hours of operation or replace it if it's excessively dirty or damaged. A clean air filter is essential for optimal engine performance and efficiency.
-
Spark Plug Maintenance – Inspect the spark plug every 100 hours of operation. Clean the plug, check for wear, and replace it if necessary to ensure proper engine ignition.
-
Battery Care – Inspect the battery regularly, ensuring it’s charged and terminals are clean. Clean any corrosion from the terminals and check for any damage.
-
Fuel Tank & Fuel Lines – Examine the fuel tank and fuel lines for any leaks or cracks. Clean the fuel tank and replace any damaged lines to avoid fuel spillage or flow problems.
-
Oil Filter – Change the oil filter at the same time as the engine oil (every 100 hours or annually). A clean oil filter ensures that the engine remains lubricated properly and operates efficiently.
-
Exhaust System – Inspect the exhaust system for any damage, rust, or blockages. Ensure there are no obstructions in the exhaust outlets. A clean exhaust system helps prevent overheating and reduces emissions.
-
Cooling System – Regularly inspect the generator's cooling system, including fans and vents. Clean the system and ensure that airflow is not obstructed to prevent the engine from overheating.
-
Electric Start System – Ensure the electric start system works properly. Check the starter motor, battery, and wiring regularly to keep the system functioning reliably.
-
Wheel Kit Maintenance – Inspect the wheel kit for wear and tear. Lubricate the wheels periodically to ensure smooth movement and check that they are securely attached to the frame.
-
Leak Inspections – Regularly check for leaks around the fuel, oil, and air systems. Address any leaks immediately to prevent damage or safety hazards.
-
Cleaning – After every use, clean the generator thoroughly to remove dirt, dust, and debris, particularly from the air intakes and engine areas. A clean unit runs more efficiently and increases its lifespan.
-
Storage – If storing the generator for extended periods, drain the fuel, clean the unit, and store it in a dry, well-ventilated area. Cover the generator to protect it from dust and moisture.
