replaced. Do not operate the generator without this filter in
place. To replace the filter after cleaning, or with a new filter,
simply screw the filter into the inlet side of the tap.
5. Ensuring the small seal is fitted to the tap thread,
screw the tap back into the tank by a FULL 3 – 4 turns.
Orientate the tap so the
outlet of the tap is towards
the rear of the tank, and
the tap control is to the
right hand side of the tank.
Holding the tap firm, tighten
the lock nut, ensuring the
seal is clamped between
the lock nut and the tank
(Fig. a).
6. Refit the fuel hose to the
outlet of the tap and with the
wire arms compressed, slide
the hose clamp up onto the
connection of the hose and
the tap (Fig. b).
7. Refill the tank with fuel and
ensure there are no leaks
between the tap and the
tank, and with the fuel tap
turned on, ensure there are no leaks where
the fuel hose is fitted to the outlet of the tap.
Cleaning
1. Keep your machine clean. The outside of the machine
can be cleaned using a damp soft cloth with a mild
detergent if required. Never use water to clean the
generator as it may cause damage to internal parts.
2. Some maintenance products and solvents may damage
the plastic parts; these include products containing
benzene, trichloroethylene, chloride and ammonia.
3. Use a vacuum to clean air inlet and outlet louvres of
the alternator.
4. Take special care to keep the ventilation inlets/outlets free
from obstruction; cleaning with a soft brush followed by
a compressed air jet will usually be sufficient to ensure
acceptable internal cleanliness.
5. Wear eye protection when carrying out cleaning.
Repairs
Only an authorised service centre should repair
the generator.
