"HOW-TO" MAINTENANCE
ENGINE OIL CHANGE OIL DRAIN PLUG
(ON BOTH SIDE)
■ Initial oil change
・・・・・After 20 hours of operation
■ Thereafter
・・・・・Every 100 hours of operation

1. When changing oil, stop the engine and

loosen the drain plug.
2. Re-install the drain plug before refilling
oil. OIL FILLER CAP

3. Refer to the recommended oil table on

page 11.
4. Always use the best grade and clean
oil. Contaminated oil, poor quality oil
and shortage of oil cause damage to
engine or shorten the engine life.

1.64 US qt)

ENGINE OIL FILTER

REPLACEMENT
■ Initial engine oil filter replacement
should be performed after 20 hours of
operation. Thereafter replace the engine
oil filter every 200 hours.
OIL FILTER

■ When installing a new oil filter, apply oil

to O-ring, attach the oil filter in position
and tighten 2/3 turns by hand or with
wrench after touching the O-ring to the
sealing surface of engine. CAUTION :
To prevent injury, pay attention to
the spilled hot engine oil when
■ Run the engine for a minute ; stop the
engine and check for oil leakage around replacing engine oil filter.

SPARK ARRESTER
SPARK ARRESTER
In a dry or wooded area, it is recommendable to use the engine with a spark arrester.
Some areas require the use of a spark arrester. Please check your local laws and
regulations before operating your engine.

The spark arrester must be cleaned regularly to keep it functioning as designed.

A clogged spark arrester :
● Prevents the flow of exhaust gas
● Reduces engine output
● Increases fuel consumption
● Makes starting difficult

If the engine has been running, the muffler and the spark arrester will be very hot.
Allow the muffler to cool before cleaning the spark arrester.

How to remove the spark arrester

1. Remove the flange bolts from the
MUFFLER
muffler cover and remove the muffler
cover.
2. Remove the special screw from the
spark arrester and remove the spark
arrester from the muffler.

SPARK ARESSTER SCREEN Clean the spark arrester screen

Use a brush to remove carbon deposits
from the spark arrester screen.
Be careful to avoid damaging the screen.

The spark arrester must be free of

breaks and holes. Replace the spark
arrester if it is damaged.

Install the spark arrester, and muffler

protector in the reverse order of
disassembly.

PREPARATION FOR STORAGE

The following procedures should be followed prior to storage of your generator for
a period of 6 months or longer.
■ Drain fuel from fuel tank and strainer
Screw for Drain
(cup) carefully by disconnecting the
fuel line. Gasoline left in the fuel tank
will eventually deteriorate making
engine-starting difficult.
■ Drain fuel from the carburetor by loos-
ening the drain screw on the carburetor
float chamber , or run the engine at
no-load until it stops.
■ Disconnect the terminal of the battery.
■ Change engine oil.
■ Check for loose bolts and screws, tighten them if necessary.
■ Clean generator thoroughly with oiled cloth. Spray with preservative if avail-
able. NEVER USE WATER TO CLEAN GENERATOR !
■ Store generator in a well ventilated, low humidity area.

the bottom panel.
(b) Attach wheel mounting parts ① ,② ,stopper ⑨ , using clamp ⑩, ⑧ and wheel ③, to
wheel shaft ④.
Then check that wheel ③ is rotated smoothly. If moving turns out to be too compli-
cated, assemble them together using grease. (4 locations / 2 pieces)
(c) Bend the tip of ① according to the shape of wheel shaft ④ as possible.
(d) Attach the assembled shaft to the foundation plate of the engine, using ⑤, ⑦, and ⑧.
(e) Attach the other shaft to the foundation plate of the generating unit, using ⑥ and ⑦.
(⑧ is not used.)
The tightening torque of bolts should be 20 to 25 Nm (2.0 to 2.5 kg-m).

WARNING
If you provide the generator with wheels,
⑦ ⑦ always be sure to place the generator on
①
② a level surface, locking the wheel with
