ENGINE OIL CHANGE
Drain the oil while the engine is warm to assure rapid and complete draining.
1. Turn the engine switch and fuel filler cap vent lever to the OFF position (see
page 42) to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.
2. Loosen the maintenance cover screw and remove the maintenance cover
(see page 35).
3. Place a suitable container next to the engine to catch the used oil.
4. Remove the oil filler cap, and drain the oil into the container by tipping the
engine toward the oil filler neck.
Improper disposal of engine oil can be harmful to the environment. If you change
your own oil, please dispose of the used oil properly.
Put it in a sealed container, and take it to a recycling center. Do not discard it in a
trash bin, dump it on the ground, or pour it down the drain.
5. With the generator in a level position, fill with the recommended oil to the
upper limit. Do not overfill.
• “Upper limit” means the oil exists to the oil filler neck. Refer to "ENGINE OIL
