How can I troubleshoot if the generator doesn't start?

If the generator doesn't start, check the fuel level, ensure the fuel valve is open, inspect the spark plug for damage or wear, and verify that the oil level is adequate. If issues persist, consult the user manual or contact customer support.

How often should I perform maintenance on the generator?

Perform regular maintenance every 50 hours of operation or at least once a season. This includes checking the oil level, cleaning or replacing the air filter, and inspecting the spark plug.

What should I do if the generator is producing low power output?

If the generator is producing low power, check that the load does not exceed the generator's capacity. Inspect the air filter and spark plug for cleanliness and proper function. Adjust the choke if necessary and ensure the fuel is fresh.

Can I use the generator in wet conditions?

No, the generator should not be used in wet conditions or exposed to rain or moisture as this could lead to electrical hazards or damage to the equipment.

How do I store the generator when not in use?

To store the generator, turn off the fuel valve and run the generator until it stops. Clean the unit and store it in a cool, dry place. Consider adding a fuel stabilizer to the tank if storing for an extended period.

What is the maximum continuous power output of the Clarke IG950B generator?

The Clarke IG950B generator has a maximum continuous power output of 800 watts. Ensure not to exceed this capacity to avoid damaging the generator.

How do I change the spark plug on the generator?

To change the spark plug, first ensure the generator is off and cool. Remove the spark plug cap, use a spark plug wrench to unscrew the old plug, then replace it with a new one, ensuring it is properly gapped. Reattach the spark plug cap securely.

How can I reduce the noise level of the generator during operation?

To reduce noise, place the generator on a soft surface like grass to dampen vibrations. Ensure all panels are securely fastened and consider using a generator enclosure or sound-dampening mat.
