3. MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE C NOTE Our engines work well with 1076 or less ethanol blend fuels When using blended fuels there are some issues worth noting Ethanol gasoline blends can absorb more water than gasoline alone These blends can eventually separate leaving water or a watery goo in the tank fuel valve and carburetor With gravity fed fuel supplies this compromised fuel can be drawn into the carburetor and cause damage to the engine and or potential hazards There are only a few suppliers of fuel stabilizer that are formulated to work with ethanol blend fuels Any damages or hazards caused by using improper fuel improperly stored fuel and or improperly formulated stabilizers are not covered by manufacture s warranty It is advisable to always shut off the fuel supply run the engine to fuel starvation and drain the tank when the equipment is not in use for more than 30 days DANGER Generator exhaust contains odorless and colorless carbon monoxide gas To avoid accidental or unintended ignition of your generator during periods of storage the following precautions should be followed When storing the generator for short or extended periods of time make sure that the Engine Switch and the Fuel Valve are set in the OFF position 30408 14 SPECIFICATIONS Engine Specifications Model Displacement Type start Type Generator Specifications Model Continuous Use Wattage Max Running Watta
