c)
Changing engine oil
Change the oil once after the first 50 - 150 hours of use and then every 500 hours of engine operation
thereafter. The generator set is equipped with an hour meter to record actual engine operating time.
The ideal time to change engine oil is soon after a power delivery run, when the engine is at operating
temperature. If lubricating oil is drained immediately after the unit has been run for some time, most of
the sediment will be in suspension and will drain readily.
Change the oil filter element each time the oil is changed.
CAUTION
•
High ash oils may produce harmful deposits on valves that can cause valve
burning.
•
Do not use solvents as flushing oils in running engines.
•
Always use clean containers, funnels, etc.
