What should I do if the generator won't start?

If the generator won't start, check that there is enough fuel and oil. Ensure the fuel valve is open and the choke is set correctly. Also, inspect the spark plug for fouling or damage, and clean or replace it if necessary.

How can I maintain the air filter on the Clarke IG950C?

To maintain the air filter, remove the filter cover and take out the filter element. Clean it with soapy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly. Reinstall the filter element once it is completely dry. Replace the filter if it is damaged or excessively dirty.

What is the maximum continuous power output of the Clarke IG950C generator?

The maximum continuous power output of the Clarke IG950C generator is 800 watts. Ensure not to exceed this limit to prevent overloading and potential damage to the generator.

How do I safely store the generator when not in use for extended periods?

For extended storage, empty the fuel tank and run the carburetor dry. Change the oil and clean the air filter. Store the generator in a cool, dry place, and cover it to protect against dust and moisture.

What type of fuel is recommended for the Clarke IG950C generator?

The Clarke IG950C generator is designed to run on unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Avoid using fuel with more than 10% ethanol content to prevent engine damage.

How can I troubleshoot a generator that is running erratically?

If the generator runs erratically, check for water or debris in the fuel system, clean or replace the fuel filter, and ensure the air filter is clean. Also, inspect the spark plug and replace it if necessary.

What are the noise levels of the Clarke IG950C during operation?

The Clarke IG950C generator operates at a noise level of approximately 58 dB at 7 meters, making it relatively quiet compared to other generators of similar output.

How can I check the oil level in the Clarke IG950C generator?

To check the oil level, ensure the generator is on a level surface and turn off the engine. Remove the oil dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert it without screwing it in, and then remove it again to check the oil level. Add oil if the level is low.
