CLEANING THE GENERATOR
Generator maintenance consists of keeping the
unit clean and dry. Be sure to store the unit in a
clean and dry environment, where it will not be
exposed to excessive dust, dirt, moisture or any
corrosive vapors. Cooling slots should always
be clean and free from clogs.
Note: Do not use a garden hose to clean the
generator. Water can enter the fuel and intake
system, which cause problems. In addition, if
water and dirt build up on the internal windings
of the generator, the resistance of these
windings will decrease.
• To clean the generator, use a damp cloth to
wipe the exterior surfaces.
• Use a soft bristle brush to loosen caked on
dirt of oil.
• Use a vacuum cleaner to pick up loose dirt
and debris.
• Compressed air (not to exceed 25 psi) may
be used to blow away dirt.
