Prior to each use, the generator should be cleaned and 

inspected  for  deficiencies.  Check  for  loose,  missing  or 

damaged  nuts,  bolts  or  other  fasteners.  Also  check  for 

fuel,  oil,  and  coolant  leaks.  Use Table  14  as  a  general 

maintenance guideline 

engine side (Refer to the Engine 

Instruction Manual)

Every 250 hours: Remove air cleaner element (Figure 53) 

and clean the heavy duty paper element with light spray of 

compressed air. Replace the air cleaner as needed. 

This indicator (Figure 53) is attached to the air cleaner. 

When  the  air  cleaner  element  is  clogged,  air  intake 

restriction becomes greater and the dust indicator signal 

shows 

reD  meaning  the  element  needs  changing  or 

service.  After  changing  the  air  element,  press  the  dust 

indicator button to reset the indicator.

The air filter should not be changed until the indicator 

reads 

“reD”. Dispose of old air filter. It may not be 

cleaned or reused.
