NOTE: The use
01
mechanical spring
type
check
valves instead
01
a solenoid shut-off valve is
not recommended, as these
may
tax
the
luellift
pump's ability
to
draw
luel
through
a
check
valve. A
check
valve can
trap
debris under its seat
which
inhibits
the
valve's ability
to
close.
In addition, if a
check
valve's cracking pressure is
too
high,
IT
may
cause
vapor
lock.
Should a mechanical type, spring-loaded
check
valve
be
used, it should
be
of an adjustable
type
(that
Is,
a Weatherhead
#43
x 6). This adjustable
type
01
valve should
be
adjusted
to
have
a cracking pressure
so
as
to
prevent siphoning when the generator is not operating.
Strongly
recommended
is
the
installation
01
an approved filterlseparator in
the
luel
supply
between
the
fuel
tank
and
the
generator's engine
to
help remove contaminants in
the
fuel before
the
fuel reaches the engine-
mounted fuel lift
pump
and carburetor.
IWARNINGI
Gasoline leakage in
or
around the generator
compartment
is a potential cause
of
fire
andlor
explosion. Repair leaks
promptly
and ensure that the
compartment
is properly ventilated.
Oil
Drain
An oil
sump
drain hose is installed on
the
engine with the discharge end secured
by
a bracket at the front
01
the engine. Oil
may
be
drained
Irom
this hose
by
removing
the
cap
and
Ihe
discharge end
01
the
hose from
the
support
bracket and lowering
the
hose into a container. The hose
cap
fitting is
114
inch NPT (National
Pipe Tap) and can be extended,
or
have a
pump
added,
lor
easier removal
01
the
old oil, if desired.
