IMPORTANT! Used oil must be disposed of properly. Do not pour it on the ground or down a drain or throw it in the

trash. It is recommended to take it to your local recycling centre or service station for reclamation.

SERVICE THE AIR FILTER

NOTICE! Operating the engine with a damaged or missing air filter will allow dust and debris to enter the engine,

causing rapid engine wear or scoring on the engine pistons. Always ensure the air filter is in place.

A dirty air filter will restrict airflow to the carburetor, reducing engine performance. If the engine is used in very dusty areas,

clean the air filter more frequently than specified in the maintenance schedule.

1. Remove the air cleaner’s outside cover. Be careful to prevent dirt and debris from falling into the air cleaner

assembly.

2. Remove the air filter from the air filter housing.

3. Clean the housing interior with warm soap and water. Allow to dry before reassembly.

4. Inspect the air filter to see if you can clean it or if it should be discarded. Discard if it is too dirty and replace with a new filter.

a. Clean a dirty air filter with warm water and mild soap or a non-flammable solvent. Replace the water as

necessary, until the water is no longer dirty. Dispose of the oil contaminated water in accordance with your

local by-laws.

NOTICE! Do not use a flammable solvent to clean the foam filter. The solvent may dissolve or clog the filter.

b. Allow air filter to dry.

c. Dip the filter into clean engine oil and squeeze out excess. The engine may produce smoke when started for

the first time after the filter is replaced. This is excess oil from the filter and the effect is only temporary.

5. Reinstall the filter into the housing and secure in place.

6. Install the air filter assembly onto the carburetor and secure with screw.

REPLACING THE SPARK PLUG

NOTICE! Using an incorrect spark plug can cause engine damage. Only replace a spark plug with a model

recommended by the manufacturer.

The spark plug must be properly gapped and free of deposits for the best performance. Check

CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT

Never make adjustments to the carburetor. The carburetor was set at the factory to operate efficiently under most conditions.

Only a qualified service technician should adjust the carburetor if it is required.

MODIFYING THE CARBURETOR FOR HIGH ALTITUDES

At high altitude, the standard air-fuel mixture is too rich, causing increased fuel consumption and decreased performance. A

rich mixture will also foul the spark plug and cause hard starting.

A qualified technician can improve high altitude performance with certain modifications. Have your carburetor modified if the

engine will routinely be operated at altitudes above 5,000 ft (1,524 m). Even with carburetor modification, engine power will

decrease about 3.5% for each 1,000 ft (305 m) increase in altitude. The effect of altitude on engine power will be greater than

this is if no modification is made.

NOTICE! When the carburetor has been modified for high altitude operation, the air fuel mixture will be too lean for

low altitude use. Operation at altitudes below 5,000 ft (1,500 m) may cause the engine to overheat and result in

serious engine damage. When using this engine at low altitudes, have a qualified technician return the carburetor

to original factory specifications.

CLEANING THE SEDIMENT CUP

CAUTION! Wear latex or rubber gloves when working on the sediment cup. The cup may contain fuel that will cause

skin irritation. Prolonged and repeated exposure to fuel on skin may result in dry, cracked skin.

1. Switch the fuel valve to the OFF position.

2. Remove the fuel sediment cup, screw and O-ring.

3. Clean the sediment cup with a non-flammable solvent or detergent and rinse. Allow to dry.

a. Some chemicals will damage the o-ring material. Check for compatibility or simply replace the o-ring.

4. Reassemble the sediment cup and o-ring.

5. Switch the fuel valve to the ON position and check for leaks. Replace the o-ring if the installation is correct, but fuel still

leaks from the cup.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM INFORMATION

The combustion process produces carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and oxides of nitrogen. Control of these emissions is

very important for personal and environmental health.

The following instructions must be followed in order to keep the emissions from your engine within Canadian

emission standards.

1. Do not remove or alter any part of the intake, fuel, or exhaust systems.

rust and corrosion from impairing your generator's function and appearance and will make the generator easier to start

when used again.

The following precautions should be taken if storing your generator for a period exceeding 30 days or for

seasonal storage.

• Store in a clean dry area.

• Change the oil while the engine is still warm (see section How to Drain Oil).

• Clean the debris, chaff or grass from the engine's surface.

• Drain all fuel from the fuel tank into a proper receptacle for storage.

• Remove the spark plug. Place 1 teaspoon (5ml) of oil into the spark plug hole.

• Pull starter rope slowly 8-10 times to properly coat the cylinder bore and piston for storage. Replace spark plug and

tighten. Any residual oil will burn off in subsequent starts. This may result in white smoke emission from muffler.

• Pull the recoil starter rope again until you feel a slight resistance. Keep pulling until the arrow on the starting sleeve

aligns with the hole of the starter. When aligned, both the inlet and outlet valves are closed. This will help prevent

the engines from rusting inside.

• Store this generator in the horizontal position with the spark plug up. Do not store or transport with the spark plug

down. Storing or transporting with the spark plug down will result in hard starting and/or engine smoking.

• Prevent a build-up of explosive gases by storing the battery in a ventilated area or container that will disperse the

small amounts of gas created.

STORING GENERATOR WITH FUEL

WARNING! Keep the generator away from ignition sources such as sparks, the open flame of a pilot light when

storing with fuel in the tank. An ignition source can ignite gasoline vapours.

1. If your generator will be stored with gasoline in the fuel tank and carburetor, it is important to reduce the hazard of

gasoline vapour ignition.

a. Select a well-ventilated storage area away from any appliance that operates with a flame, such as a furnace,

water heater, or clothes dryer.

b. Avoid any area with a spark-producing electric motor.

c. Avoid any area where power tools are operated.

2. If possible, avoid storage areas with high humidity, as this promotes rust and corrosion.

3. Keep the generator level in storage. Tilting can cause fuel or oil leakage.

4. Cover the generator once the engine and exhaust system is cool. Some materials can ignite or melt if the engine

and/or exhaust system is hot. Do not use sheet plastic as a dust cover.

a. Use a cover made from a breathable fabric to prevent rust and corrosion.

8509820 7,000W Gasoline Generator with Electric Start V 4.1

REMOVAL FROM STORAGE

1. Check the generator as described in the section Pre-Operation Checks.

2. If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the tank with fresh gasoline.

3. If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the engine will smoke briefly at start up.

This is normal.

TRANSPORTING THE GENERATOR

WARNING! Transport the generator with an empty fuel tank or with the fuel valve lever secured in the OFF position.

1. Keep the generator level when transporting to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.

2. Turn the fuel valve (I) to the OFF position.

FUEL STORAGE

Gasoline will oxidize and deteriorate in storage. Deteriorated gasoline makes it harder to start the engine and leaves gum

deposits that clog the fuel system. If that gasoline in your engine deteriorates during storage, you may need to service or

replace the carburetor and other fuel system components.

The length of time that gasoline can be left in your fuel tank and carburetor without causing functional problems will vary

with factors such as gasoline blend, storage temperatures and the amount of fuel in the tank. The air in a partially filled

fuel tank will promote fuel deterioration, as will very warm storage temperatures. Fuel problems may occur in a few

months, or sooner if the gasoline was not fresh when the tank was filled.

Adding a gasoline stabilizer that is formulated for this purpose can extend fuel storage life. Deterioration problems can

also be avoided by draining the fuel tank and carburetor prior to storage.

ADDING A GASOLINE STABILIZER

1. Fill the fuel tank with fresh gasoline. If the tank is only partially filled, air in the tank will promote fuel deterioration

during storage.

2. Add gasoline stabilizer. Ensure that the instructions for that product are followed.

3. Run the generator outdoors for 10 minutes to ensure that treated gasoline has replaced the untreated gasoline in

the carburetor.

4. Stop the engine.

CLEANING

WARNING! Use only a nonflammable solvent, not gasoline, to clean engine parts. Keep all sources of ignition away

from fuel related parts. Fumes are flammable and may catch fire, causing a burn injury.

NOTICE! Do not clean the engine’s exterior with a garden hose or pressure washer. Water can enter the engine

through the air filter or muffler opening and damage the cylinder.

1. If the generator has been running, allow it to cool for at least half an hour before cleaning.

2. Clean all exterior surfaces.

3. Touch up any damaged paint.

4. Coat other areas that may rust with a light film of oil.

DISPOSAL

Recycle a generator damaged beyond repair at the appropriate facility.

Contact your local municipality for a list of disposal facilities or by-laws for electronic devices, batteries, oil or other toxic

liquids.

IMPORTANT! DO NOT pollute the environment by allowing uncontrolled discharge of waste oil.
