STORING GENERATOR
SHORT TERM (1-6 MONTHS):
1.  Add diesel fuel conditioner and stabilizer at the specified concentration.
2.  Run the unit for two (2) minutes to ensure the mixed fuel is in the entire fuel system. Close the fuel valve and run the 
unit until it stops.
3.  Clean the exterior surface of the generator and apply a rust inhibitor.
4.  Store the generator in a dry, well ventilated place.
LONG TERM (MORE THAN 6 MONTHS):
1.  Add diesel fuel conditioner and stabilizer at the specified concentration.
2.  Run the generator until the fuel tank and carburetor is dry.
3.  Slowly pull the recoil starter handle out to the point of resistance (the point in the compression stroke where the intake 
and exhaust valves are closed). This helps to prevent rust while the engine is not in use.
4.  Clean the exterior surface of the generator and apply a rust inhibitor.
5.  Store the generator in a dry, well ventilated place.

NOTE: Unit ratings are established based on operation at standard conditions of 60° F and at sea level. The  
performance of the generator must be de-rated for temperature and altitude by 1% for every 10° F above 
60° F and 3.5% for every 1000 feet above sea level. Due to the operational characteristics of the thermal 
type circuit breaker, the power available from the generator will decrease slightly with a corresponding 
increase in ambient temperature.
 
Due to continuing product improvements, specifications are subject to change without notice.
