Change Engine Oil
Change engine oil per maintenance schedule.
If you are using your generator under extremely dirty
or dusty conditions, or in extremely hot weather,
change the oil more often.
CAUTION
Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact with used
motor oil.
Risk of burns. Allow engine to cool
before draining oil or coolant. Failure to
do so could result in death of serious
injury.
WARNING
NOTE:
Please use an approved container to catch and
recycle the used oil.
If contaminated or deteriorated oil is used or the
quantity of the engine oil is not sufficient, engine
damage will result and its life will be greatly
shortened.
Maximum oil capacity: 15.0 fl.oz (0.45 L)
Check the engine oil level before each use or every 8
hours of operation.
1. Place the generator on a level surface and allow
the engine to cool for several minutes.
2. Loosen the bolts and remove the oil access cover.
3. With a damp rag, clean around the oil dipstick.
4. Remove the oil dipstick.
5. Wipe the dipstick clean, then screw dipstick into
filler neck. Remove the dipstick and verify that
the oil level is within safe operating range.
6. If low, add recommended engine oil incrementally
and recheck until the level is between the L and H
marks on the dipstick.
DO NOT
overfill. If over the
full mark on the dipstick, drain the oil to reduce the
oil level to the full mark.
7. Reinstall the oil dipstick and hand-tighten.
NOTE:
Drain the lubricant while the engine is still warm but
not hot. Warm lubricant will drain quickly and more
completely.
1. Loosen the bolts and remove the maintenance cover.
2. Remove the oil filler cap.
3. Screw the oil funnel onto the filling neck to avoid spills.
4. Tilt the generator on its side and allow the oil to
drain completely.
5. Fill the engine with oil until it reaches the HIGH (H)
level on the oil filler cap.
DO NOT
OVERFILL.
6. Reinstall the maintenance cover and tighten the
cover screws.
7. Dispose of used oil at an approved waste
management facility.
