CLEANING THE SEDIMENT CUP
Close the fuel valve. Remove the
cup [1] and the Oring [2] and wash
them in a non-flammable solvent.
Dry them thoroughly and refit
them. Open the fuel valve and
check that there is no fuel leakage.
CHECKING THE SPARK PLUG
Recommended sparking plugs:
BPR6ES (NGK), W20EPR-U (NIPPONDENSO Co., Ltd.)
CAUTION:
• Only use the recommended type of spark plug.
• The use of plugs with an incorrect rating can cause damage to the
engine.
If the engine has been running, do not touch the muffler or the
spark plug as you risk burning yourself.
1. Remove the cap and unscrew the spark plug using a spark plug
spanner.
2. Examine the spark plug carefully, and replace it if there are thick
deposits on the electrodes or if the insulator is cracked or
broken. Clean the spark plug with a wire brush.
3. Measure the gap between the electrodes with
a set of feeler gauges: it must be between 0.7
and 0.8 mm. If the gap has to be adjusted,
bend the side electrode carefully.
4. Check the state of the sealing washer, then
thread the plug back in by hand until it is hand-
tight and seated properly.
5. Using a spark plug spanner, screw the plug in
an extra 1/2 turn for a new spark plug, to
compress its washer, or between 1/8 and 1/4
turn in the case of a plug being reused. Put the
spark plug cap back on.
CAUTION:
• The spark plug must be properly tightened or else it is likely to
overheat considerably, causing damage to the engine.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
To ensure that the generator performs correctly
and has a long working life, it is essential that the
maintenance schedule be observed.
CAUTION:
• The engine and the muffler reach temperatures sufficient to
cause burns if touched and to start a fire if adjacent to
inflammable material. Allow the engine to cool for 15 minutes
before carrying out any maintenance.
• Only use original Honda parts. Parts that do not meet the Honda
design specifications can cause damage to the generator.
(1) Clean more often if used in a dusty environment.
(2) These operations must be carried out by a Honda dealer.
(3) In Europe and other countries where the machinery directive 2006/42/EC is
enforced, this cleaning should be done by your servicing dealer.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If you fail to solve the problem, contact your Honda dealer.
