Using generic or modified parts can void the warranty of your generator.
Generator manufacturers can void the warranty if generic or modified parts are used instead of original parts. The use of generic or modified parts can affect generator performance and cause additional damage. In addition, manufacturers cannot guarantee the quality and compatibility of generic or modified parts with the generator. Therefore, it is important to use original parts to ensure generator performance and durability and maintain manufacturer’s warranty.
Avoid using generic parts.
There are several ways to tell if a part is original. Here are some tips that may help: Compare the part and inspect carefully. The material of the part, weight, shape. Every part should be exactly the same as the original part you are taking out of the generator to be replaced. Identify the printed part number on the box (SKU). All original parts have it. That number should match the SKU of the part you are replacing documented in the generator’s technical manual.
