Was notified the refrigerator lights were off & in fact the inverters were not working. Rather than troubleshooting that, I started the generator & ran it all day. I called Jimmy at Newell, duh, turned the inverter control ON. That cured that, who knows why it turned itself off or why it wasn't part of my thought process.

Went to plug into the 50A campsite power & when I raised the lid a bunch of wasps flew out. One did a flyby and stung me on the tip of my nose on its way.]]>

It was releasing a large amount of air. iIt stopped when I tapped the rod protruding from the end with a hammer. Does that reset it or do I need to replace it.]]>

Does anyone know what has to be turned off when we park our Newell for a few months without a 110vac line?
If we turn off all the batteries, do we lose any computer program's & what about the Inverter?

Thank You,

It will re start, runs up to rpm, then slows to an idle then shuts down again..
Engine sounds fine, there was a round piece of plastic in generator compartment, and black dust around head unit..
Can I be lucky and just need brushes or something? I'm a mechanic, but not familiar with gensets.
I tried calling martin but no response yet.

What are the experts thoughts on keeping this old unit going vs. updating to something newer?]]> Then early one morning it made some noises and shut down. It will re start, runs up to rpm, then slows to an idle then shuts down again..

Also is the roof aluminum??
