Can someone please let me know where the fuel shut off is for the generator.
I want to change the fuel filter but cannot locate the shutoff valve.

There isn't one....doesn't need one.
Back from that fuel filter about 18 inches is the electric fuel pump, it will prevent any fuel from flowing from the tank when you take the hoses off the filter...if you look closely down in the back of the left side of the gen, through those air-intake holes, in the rear you can see the fuel pump back in there.
It won't leak any fuel when you simply remove the 2 clamps and replace the filter.

Thanks
I was using my generator manual and it referred to a shut off switch.
I have had some bad experience with gasoline flash in the past and I am scared to death of seeing a fireball in my face.
