IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming 

in fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel hose or tank 

during storage. Alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol 

or methanol) can attract moisture, which leads to separation and 

formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel 

system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, 

the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or 

longer. See the "Storage" section. Never use engine or carburetor 

cleaner products in the fuel tank as permanent damage may 

occur.

IMPORTANT: Do not overload the generator. Also, do not overload 

individual panel receptacles. These outlets are protected against 

overload with push-to-reset-type circuit breakers. If amperage 

rating of any circuit breaker is exceeded, that breaker opens and 

electrical output to that receptacle is lost. Read “Don’t Overload the 

Generator” carefully.
