200970 - 3650W DUAL FUEL PORTABLE GENERATOR
MAINTENANCE
24
Moving the Generator
CAUTION
– ALWAYS turn the generator off and ensure the fuel valve is
closed.
– ALWAYS make sure engine and muffler are cooled down
before the generator can be handled safely (typically 15-30
minutes).
– Do not drop or strike unit or place under heavy objects.
WARNING
Failure to follow these instructions could result in personal
injury or damage to the generator.
Lift unit up by the frame with 2 people and move to the desired
location.
Operation at High Altitude
The density of air at high altitudes is lower than at sea level.
Engine power is reduced as the air mass and air-fuel ratio
decrease. Engine power and generator output will be reduced
approximately 3½% for every 1000 ft. of elevation above sea level.
At high altitudes increased exhaust emissions can also result due
to the increased enrichment of the air fuel ratio. Other high altitude
issues can include hard starting, increased fuel consumption and
spark plug fouling.
To alleviate high altitude issues other than the natural power
loss, CPE can provide a high altitude carburetor main jet. The
alternative main jet and installation instructions can be obtained
by contacting our Technical Support Team. Installation instructions
are also available in the Technical Bulletin area of the CPE website.
The part number and recommended minimum altitude for the
application of the high altitude carburetor main jet is listed in the
following table.
In order to select the correct high altitude main jet it is necessary
to identify the carburetor model. For this purpose, a code is
stamped on the side of the carburetor. Select the correct high
altitude jet part number corresponding to the carburetor code
found on your particular carburetor.

WARNING
Operation using the alternative main jet at elevations lower
than the recommended minimum altitude can damage the
engine. For operation at lower elevations, the originally
supplied standard main jet must be used. Operating the
engine with the wrong engine configuration at a given altitude
may increase its emissions and decrease fuel efficiency and
performance.
MAINTENANCE
Make certain that the generator is kept clean and stored properly.
Only operate the unit on a flat, level surface in a clean, dry
operating environment. DO NOT expose the unit to extreme
conditions, excessive dust, dirt, moisture or corrosive vapors.
WARNING
Never operate a damaged or defective generator.
WARNING
Improper maintenance will void your warranty.
NOTICE
For Emission control devices and systems, read and
understand your responsibilities for service as stated in the
Emission Control Warranty Statement of this manual.
The owner/operator is responsible for all periodic maintenance.
Complete all scheduled maintenance in a timely manner.
Correct any issue before operating the generator.
