Owner's Manual

Air cleaner service
A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor. To prevent carburetor
malfunction, service the air cleaner regularly. Service more frequently when
operating the generator in extremely dusty areas.
Using gasoline or flammable solvent to clean the filter
element can cause a fire or explosion. Use only soapy water or
nonflammable solvent.
m Never run the generator without the air cleaner. Rapid engine
wear will result.

Unsnap the air cleaner cover clips,
remove the air cleaner cover, and
remove the element.
Wash the element in a solution of
household detergent and warm
water, then rinse thoroughly; or
wash in nonflammable or high
flash point solvent. Allow the
element to dry thoroughly.
Soak the element in clean engine
oil and squeeze out the excess
oil. The engine will smoke during
initial start-up if too much oil is left
in the element.
Reinstall the air cleaner element
and the cover.
