ENGINE OIL LEVEL CHECK
Check the engine oil level with the generator on a level surface and the engine
stopped.
1. Loosen the maintenance cover screw and remove the maintenance cover.
2. Remove the oil filler cap by turning it counterclockwise. Wipe the dipstick
clean.
3. Insert the dipstick into the oil filler neck as shown, but do not screw it in, then
remove it to check the oil level.
4. If the oil level is near or below the lower limit, fill with the recommended oil
to the upper limit. Do not overfill.
• “Upper limit” means the oil exists to the oil filler neck.
• “Lower limit” means the oil is attached only to the lower end of the
dipstick.
Refer to "ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATIONS" in page 14.
5. Reinstall the oil filler cap securely.
6. Reinstall the maintenance cover and tighten the maintenance cover screw
securely.
