Maintenance Tips
- Inspect welding leads, power outlets, and cables before each use for wear, cracks, or loose connections.
- Check engine oil level daily and change oil at recommended intervals for reliable performance.
- Clean or replace air filter regularly to maintain engine efficiency and fuel economy.
- Inspect spark plug condition and gap; replace if fouled or worn.
- Keep cooling fins and vents clear of dust, dirt, and debris to prevent overheating.
- Check fuel lines and tank for leaks or contamination; use fresh fuel only.
- Run generator under load periodically to maintain alternator health and stable output.
- Store unit in a dry, covered area and drain fuel for long-term storage to prevent carburetor issues.
