REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect that could cause a crash or could cause
injury or death, you should immediately inform the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Multiquip at 1-800-421-1244.
If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it finds
that a safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy
campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved in individual problems
between you, your dealer, or Multiquip.
To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Vehicle Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-888-
327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153), go to http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov; or write to:

PREPARATION FOR LONG TERM STORAGE
Generator Storage
For storage of the generating set for over 30 days, the
following is required:
Run the engine until all the fuel is completely consumed.
Drain the fuel tank completely, or add STA-BIL to the fuel
Completely drain the oil from the crankcase and refill
with fresh oil.
Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery.
Clean all external parts of the generating set with a cloth.
If generator is mounted on a trailer, jack trailer up and
place on blocks so tires do not touch the ground or block
and completely remove the tires.
Cover the generating set and store in a clean, dry place

MAINTENANCE
Use Table 9 as a general maintenance guideline when
servicing your engine. For more detail engine maintenance

NOTICE
If the engine is operating in very dusty or dry grass

lead to a loss of power, excessive carbon buildup in
the combustion chamber and high fuel consumption.
Change air cleaner more frequently if these conditions
exist.
Every 250 hours: Remove air cleaner element (Figure 38)
and clean the heavy duty paper element with light spray of
compressed air. Replace the air cleaner as needed.

NOTICE
Operating the engine with loose or damaged air cleaner
components could allow unfiltered air into the engine
causing premature wear and failure.

MAINTENANCE
ENGINE OIL
Every 100 hours: Change engine oil after the first 50 hours
of operation and 100 hours thereafter. Always check the
crankcase oil level prior to each use, or when the fuel tank
is filled. Insufficient oil may cause severe engine damage.
Make sure generator is level when checking oil level. The
oil level must be between the two notches on the dipstick
as shown in Figure 14.

When the engine stops due to running out of fuel, take
off the fuel filter or fuel piping and re-start the machine in
accordance with the following instructions.
1. Refuel the fuel tank and place the fuel cock lever in
the OPEN position.
2. Place the starter switch key in the START position.
When the engine starter engages, the automatic air
vent device will expel the air inside the fuel system.
3. After 10 to 20 seconds of turning the engine over, the
automatic air vent device would have expelled all the
air out of the fuel system. At this point, the engine will
be able to start.

TESTING THE GFCI SENSING MODULE 4. Verify that the AC voltmeter is registering a voltage
reading as shown in Figure 51.
If tripping of the main circuit breaker persists after a load is
replaced with a known good one (no short circuit), perform
this test with no load.
1. Start the welder-generator as outlined in the start up
procedure in this manual.
2. Place the main circuit breaker, CB1 (Figure 49) in the
ON position.

a ground fault exists to prevent injuries and shock
hazards. DO NOT operate the generator if this test
fails. Consult a qualified electrician for the repair or
