Carburetor alteration for high altitude operation
In high altitudes, the normal air-fuel blend in the carburetor would be too rich.
Performance would decrease and fuel consumption would increase. A very rich
blend would also dirty the spark plug and make startup difficult.
If the generator is always running in an altitude above 1,000 meters, get in touch
with an authorized GNG service to modify the carburetor (this service is not
warranty, therefore it would be quoted).
The generator's output power of 230V will vary depending on the altitude and other
elements such as humidity and temperature, se chapter on environmental
correction of this manual.
NOTE: If the carburetor has been modified to operate at great altitude, the air-
fuel blend would be too poor to work in low altitudes. Operation at low altitudes
may cause the engine to overheat and be seriously damaged.
