STORAGE

When a generator is in storage, moisture may condense in the windings. In order to
minimize condensation, always store the generator in a dry area. Cover the generator with
a protective cover that extends to the ground. The cover should remain loose around the
generator in order to allow proper ventilation.

Storage for 1 to 3 months

Remove any dirt, rust, grease, and oil from the generator. DO NOT use a pressure washer
to clean the generator. Inspect the exterior. Make any necessary repairs.
Add fuel stabilizer to the fuel tank to prevent the gasoline from going bad. Start and run the
engine for 10 minutes to ensure that the fuel stabilizer has been pulled in to the carburetor.
Shut off the engine and allow the engine to cool.
Turn the fuel valve to the off "OFF" position.
Move the generator to the storage place. Cover the generator.

Storage for more than 3 months
