MAINTENANCE
DRAINING THE FUEL TANK
Drain and clean the fuel tank each year, or before storing the generator for longer than two months.
To drain the fuel tank and carburetor:
1. Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, remove the service panel
on the opposite side of the recoil starter by unscrewing the
top two screws.
2. Locate the carburetor and the transparent drain tube that
extends down through the base plate of the generator (Fig.
38).
3. Prepare an approved gasoline-storage container and direct
the end of the transparent tube into the container.
4. Remove the fuel cap. Turn the 2-in-1 dial switch to the
“RUN” position (Fig. 39). This will open up the fuel valve.
5. Open up the carburetor drain screw (Fig. 38) with a Phillips
screwdriver. Fuel will start draining from the carburetor and
fuel tank through the drain tube.
NOTE: The draining process may take a few hours, depending
on the amount of fuel in your gas tank.
6. Once fuel is completely drained from the tube, reinstall the
fuel cap and turn the 2-in-1 switch to “OFF” position. Tighten
the drain screw with the screwdriver and reinstall the service
panel.
7. Start and run the generator until the fuel runs out.
8. Store the emptied gasoline in a suitable place. DO NOT
store flammable materials near the gasoline.
CAUTION: Store the emptied gasoline in a suitable place. Never store fuel for more than 2 months.
