Caring for Your Generator
You paid for it. USE IT. Your generator is made to be used. In fact, it NEEDS to be used to keep it working at it best. At least once a month you need to run it and let it get to full operating temperature. When you run your generator be aware of the following: 1. Never start the generator with a load on it (make sure all appliances are turned off). 2. Let the generator run for 5-10 minutes before applying a load. 3. Even if you only start it to run the microwave for a minute or two, let the generator run for 15-20 minutes so that the engine gets warm.
Fuel Problems
If you donīt run your generator often enough the fuel in the carburetor will go bad. Symptoms of this include rough running or a no start condition. The remedy is to empty out all the old fuel and clean the carburator out. Be vey careful working around fuel.
