Note: (1) Normal maintenance interval

(2) In areas where pollution is severe, check and repair frequently.
(3) The above regular maintenance schedule is calculated at ambient temperature of 25 ° C. If the ambient

temperature exceeds 30 ° C, reduce the load power of the generator or shorten the time interval for replacing the
oil (choose one operation).

Oil Change

When the engine is warm, you can quickly and completely discharge the oil.

BE CAUTIOUS

Make sure that the engine switch and the fuel switch are off before draining the oil.

WARNING

Turn off the engine before any maintenances. If the engine must be operated during maintenance,
be sure to operate it in a ventilated area because the exhaust contains toxic carbon monoxide.
