Maintenance
CAUTION!
Certain surfaces on the device can get very hot whilst it is running.
Risk of burns
► Never touch any engine parts (in particular the exhaust system) for a few min-
utes after ceasing operation.
► Always leave hot engine parts to cool down before touching them.
NOTICE!
Also always read about the checking and maintenance work which con-
cerns the electrical safety of the generators in the chapter “Checking the
electrical safety“.

Engine oil
The drive motor for your generator, like every internal combustion engine,
requires the required engine oil for cooling and inner cooling. It is also very
important to use the correct engine oil, both for refilling and when chang-
ing the oil, and to adhere the stipulated maintenance intervals. Refer to the
accompanying operating and maintenance instructions provided by the
engine manufacturer for all necessary information.
Always use a commercially available multigrade oil with a viscosity of 10W-30 for
two-stroke engines when refilling or when changing the oil. This applies for use
of a generator in temperate climates. At very low or very high outside tempera-
tures it may well be necessary to use an engine oil of another viscosity. More pre-
cise information can be found in the following info-graphic.

8.3.1
Checking the oil level
Check the engine oil level before every start in order to avoid delays and inter-
ruptions during operation.
Requirements:
Ensure that the following prerequisites are met before you check:
Ensure that the generator is mounted horizontally.
