Add Engine Oil
CAUTION
: DO NOT attempt to crank or start the engine before it has been properly filled with the
recommended type and amount of oil. Damage to the generator as a result of failure to follow these
instructions will void your warranty.

Once oil has been added, a visual check should show oil about 1-2 threads from running out of the fill
hole. If using the dipstick to check oil level, DO NOT screw in the dipstick while checking?

Check oil often during the break-in period. Refer to the Maintenance section for recommended service
intervals.
