CHECKING THE OIL
The generator is equipped with an automatic shutoff to protect it from running
with low oil. Nonetheless, the oil level should be checked before each use to
ensure that the engines crankcase has sufficient lubrication. To check the oil
level:
1. Make sure the generator is on a
level surface, and open the front
panel
2. Locate the oil filler/dipstick cap.
Unscrew the oil filler/dipstick cap.
3. With a dry cloth, wipe the oil off the
stick on the inside of the cap.
4. Insert the dipstick as if you were
reinstalling the cap then remove
again.
• There should now be oil on the
dipstick. If there is no oil on or oil
only at the very end of the dipstick, you should add oil until the
engine crankcase is filled (when the oil level has reached the lower
lip of the oil fill opening).
5. Make sure that you refit and secure the oil filler cap tightly. Close the front
panel when finished.
