DANGER
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are highly flammable and
extremely explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death. Only
fill or drain fuel outdoors in a well-ventilated area. DO NOT
pump gasoline directly into the generator. Use an approved
container to transfer the fuel to the generator. Never use
a gasoline container, gasoline tank, or any other fuel item
that is damaged or appears damaged. DO NOT overfill the
gasoline tank. Always keep fuel away from sparks, open
flames, pilot lights, heat and other sources of ignition.
DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.
Short Term Storage (up to 1 year)
Gasoline in the gasoline tank has a maximum shelf life of up to
1 year with the addition of properly formulated fuel stabilizers
and if stored in a cool, dry place. Gasoline in the carburetor,
however, may gum up and clog the carburetor if it isn't used or
drained within 2-4 weeks.
1. Be sure all appliances are disconnected from the generator.
2. Add a properly formulated fuel stabilizer to the gasoline
tank.
3. Start engine by following directions in the "Starting the
Engine: Gasoline" section.
4. Run the generator for 10 minutes so the treated gasoline
cycles through the fuel system and carburetor.
5. Turn the EZ Start dial counterclockwise to the "RUN OUT
OF FUEL" position.
6. Let the engine run until fuel starvation has stopped the
engine. This usually takes a few minutes.
7. After the engine stops, turn the EZ Start dial
counterclockwise to the "STOP" position.
8. Allow the engine to cool.
9. Remove maintenance cover.
10. Remove the spark plug and pour about a tablespoon of oil
into the cylinder.
11. SLOWLY pull the recoil to rotate the engine to distribute
and lubricate the cylinder.
12. Re-install the spark plug and spark plug wire.
13. Re-install the maintenance cover.
14. Clean the generator according to Cleaning the Generator.
15. Store the generator in a cool, dry place out of direct
sunlight.
Long Term Storage (more than 1 year)
For storage over 1 year, the gasoline tank and carburetor must
be completely drained of gasoline.
1. Be sure all appliances are disconnected from generator.
2. Place inverter on blocks to allow appropriate gasoline
container or pan to slide under inverter.
3. Remove the maintenance cover.
4. Turn the EZ Start dial to the RUN position for gasoline.
5. Using a Phillips screwdriver, rotate drain screw
counterclockwise (3) full turns. Gasoline will drain through
clear tubing out underneath the inverter. Make sure
draining gasoline empties into an appropriate container.
6. When gasoline stops flowing from the clear tube, rotate
drain screw clockwise until tight. Properly dispose of
the drained gasoline according to local regulations or
guidelines.
7. Turn the EZ Start dial to the STOP position.
