Maintenance Safety
Some of the most important safety precautions follow. However, we
cannot warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in
performing maintenance. Only you can decide whether or not you
should perform a given task.
Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or
repairs. This will eliminate several potential hazards:
Be sure there is adequate ventilation whenever you operate the
engine.
Do not run the engine unless instructed to do so.
To ensure the best quality and reliability, use only new, genuine
Honda parts or their equivalents for repair or replacement.
Let the engine and exhaust system cool before touching.
Read the instructions before you begin, and make sure you have the
tools and skills required.
To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, be careful when
working around gasoline. Use only a nonflammable solvent, not
gasoline, to clean parts. Keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames away
from all fuel-related parts.
Remember that your servicing dealer knows your generator best and
is fully equipped to maintain and repair it.
