BEFORE OPERATION
Check the Engine
Before each use, look around and underneath the engine for signs of
oil or gasoline leaks.
Check the engine oil level (see page 55). A low engine oil level will
cause the Oil Alert system to shut down the engine.
Check the air filters (see page 58). Dirty air filters will restrict air flow
to the fuel system, reducing engine and generator performance.
Check the fuel level (see page 53). Starting with a full tank will help
to eliminate or reduce operating interruptions for refueling.
Check the GFCI
Check the GFCI operation (see page 35) after starting the engine.
Battery Maintenance Cover
Never operate the generator without the battery maintenance cover in
place, as poor engine and generator performance will result.
