Maintenance Schedule

*Maintenance should be conducted more frequently when the generator is being used in dusty areas.

**These items should be serviced by a professional mechanic, unless you have the proper tools and

are mechanically proficient. Hike Crew is not liable for damage to parts sustained due to mechanical

ineptitude. Don’t try to replace it if you’re not sure you can. Don’t try to replace it because you

watched one YouTube video.

***These are just recommended guidelines for scheduled maintenance. If you use your generator more

often, or run it for extended periods of time, the engine may require servicing more frequently.
