HOW TO SERVICE A 14 KW GENERAC GENERATOR! FULL SERVICE!

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

To replace the air filter, locate the airbox cover on the generator engine. This cover is typically secured by two wing nuts. Unscrew these two wing nuts by hand until they are completely loose. Carefully lift off the airbox cover to reveal the internal air filter. Note that for 14kW Generac models, the air filter is circular, while larger models (20kW and above) often use a rectangular filter. Remove the old circular air filter from its housing. Place the new air filter into the airbox, ensuring it sits correctly. Reattach the airbox cover, align it properly, and then re-tighten the two wing nuts by hand until they are snug.

Goal: Remove the old air filter and install a new one.
