Systems and apparatuses include a generator set including a chassis, an engine mounted to the chassis, an inverter coupled to the engine, and a housing coupled to the chassis. The engine and inverter are contained within the chassis and the housing. An air cleaner is sized to fit within the housing and includes an air cleaner housing defining an inlet and an outlet, and a sealing surface positioned between the inlet and the outlet, and a cover pivotably coupled to the air cleaner housing and including a carrier sized to be received within the air cleaner housing. The cover includes an air filter receiving feature structured to support an air filter and position the air filter between the inlet and the outlet, and a carrier flange structured to seal a portion of the air filter between the sealing surface and the carrier flange when the cover is arranged in a closed position.

A power working machine comprises a working portion, a driving portion, a main body portion, and a blowing portion. The working portion is configured to act on a work object. The driving portion is configured to drive the working portion. The main body portion includes a bottom surface portion, an intake port, and an exhaust port, and is configured to form a storage space for storing the driving portion and an airflow path leading from the intake port to the exhaust port through the storage space. The blowing portion is configured to generate an airflow in the airflow path toward the exhaust port. The intake port is configured to open in a direction having a vertical downward component in a first state in which the power working machine is placed with the bottom surface portion facing a horizontal surface.
