DUSTY OR DIRTY OPERATING CONDI-
TIONS
If the generator set operates under these
conditions, use dry compressed air to blow out
the generator. With the generator set running,
direct air through the slots at the engine end of
the generator set.
ENGINE SERVICE
Perform routine maintenance at specified
intervals as documented in the Briggs &
Stratton Engine Manual supplied with this
generator set.
TUNE-UPS
Have the generator set tuned-up by an autho-
rized distributor. Tune-ups will improve perfor-
mance and maintain reliability of the generator
set during its long lasting service life.
SCHEDULED SERVICE
Perform scheduled service at every scheduled
interval to ensure satisfactory operation of the
generator set. If rough operation, lack of
power, or excessive oil use is apparent, have
an authorized distributor service the generator
set. Serious generator set problems can be
prevented with immediate action.
