How to Change Air Filter

If the generator is emitting white smoke and won’t turn on, it’s likely the air filter needs to be changed. This section goes over how to change the air filter.


  • Open the generator panel, use the kickstand to keep the door up, and locate the air filter. 
  • Release the buckles on top and bottom and take the cap off. 
  • Pull the old air filter out. 
  • Push the new air filter in. 
  • Put the cap back on, securing the buckles. 
  • Close generator panel door.
