FOREWORD
This manual was written by the Yamaha Motor
Company primarily for use by Yamaha dealers
and their qualified mechanics. It is not possi-
ble to put an entire mechanic’s education into

using this book to perform maintenance and
repairs on Yamaha generators have a basic
understanding of the mechanical precepts and
procedures inherent to generator repair tech-
nology. Without such knowledge, attempted
repairs or service to this model may render it
unfit for use and/or unsafe.
Yamaha Motor Company Ltd. is continually
striving to further improve all models manufac-
tured by Yamaha. Modifications and significant
changes in specifications or procedures will
be forwarded to all Authorized Yamaha deal-
ers and will, where applicable, appear in
future editions of this manual.
TIP
This Service Manual contains information
regarding periodic maintenance to the
emission control system. Please read this
material carefully.
