Maintenance Guidance:

Inspect and service the foam filter according to the generator owner’s manual. Replace it if the foam is torn, crumbling, permanently clogged, or otherwise damaged.

Some foam filters require cleaning or oiling, while others are installed dry. Follow the instructions for the specific generator model rather than applying oil automatically.

Turn off the generator and allow the engine to cool before servicing it. Wear protective gloves and prevent loose debris from entering the carburetor intake.
