sealing of the new filter.
7. Mounting the new filter
Carefully screw in the new filter by hand. It must not be tightened too much. Screw in the oil drain screw again
and tighten is with the wrench. Use a new sealing for the oil drain screw.
8. Fill in oil. (oil fill capacity: see attachment)
Fill the engine oil into the engine via feed hopper. Check oil-level after every 2 litres with the oil dipstick.
9. Check proper filling level. See „Checking oil-level“ on page 1.
When the proper filling level is reached, screw in the oil cap again. Run the engine for 10 minutes and then turn it
off. Check the oil-level once more after several minutes with the oil dipstick. If it is too low, refill some oil.
10. Clean up
Wipe off all oil splashes from the generator and make sure that the drain screw has no leak.
