It is recommended to start and run the generator for 30
minutes, every 30 days. If this is not possible, refer to the
following list to prepare unit for storage.
• DO NOT place a storage cover on a hot generator. Allow
unit to cool to room temperature before storage.
• DO NOT store fuel from one season to another unless
properly treated.
• Replace fuel container if rust is present. Rust in fuel will
cause fuel system problems.
• Cover unit with a suitable protective, moisture resistant
cover.
• Store unit in a clean, dry area.
• Always store generator and fuel away from heat and
ignition sources.
Prepare Fuel System/Engine for Storage
Fuel stored over 30 days can go bad and damage fuel
system components. Keep fuel fresh, use fuel stabilizer.
If fuel stabilizer is added to fuel system, prepare and run
engine for long term storage. Run engine for 10-15 min-
utes to circulate stabilizer throughout fuel system. Ade-
quately prepared fuel can be stored up to 24 months.
NOTE: If fuel has not been treated with fuel stabilizer, it
must be drained into an approved container. Run engine
until it stops from lack of fuel. Use of fuel stabilizer in fuel
storage container is recommended to keep fuel fresh.
