18. RECOMMENDED OILS
Motor oil has a serious impact on performance characteristics and is a major
attribute, defining its service life. Use oils designed for four-stroke cycle
vehicle engines, since such oils contain cleaning additives, which comply
or even exceed SE standards according to API classification (or equivalent).
In general, the engine is recommended to run with motor oils of SAE 10W-30,
SAE 10W-40 viscosity level. Motor oils with other viscosity levels, may be used
only if the average air temperature in your region does not exceed the limits
of the temperature range, specified in the table. Oil viscosity according to SAE
standards or service category, are specified on the API capacity sticker.
ENGINE OIL REPLACEMENT OR ADDING
Upon oil level decrease it is necessary to add the required quantity in order to
provide the correct generator operation. It is necessary to check the oil levels
according to technical maintanance schedule.
To replace engine oil, perform the following actions:
1. Wear protective gloves to avoid getting oil on the skin.
2. Place a drain oil holding tank under the engine.
3. Turn the drain cap, located in the engine under the oil-depth gage cap, by
means of a hexagon spanner 10 mm for all verifications of KS 3000.
4. Wait till the oil drains.
5. Replace the drain cap and tighten it well.
6. Pleae drain the oil while the engine is warm. This provides a quick and complete
oil drain.
To refill oil, perform the following actions:
1. Wear protective gloves to avoid getting oil on the skin.
2. Make sure that the generator is set on flat level surface.
3. Open the oil-depth gage cap on the engine
4. By means of a funnel, pour the advanced purification engine oil to the
crankcase. The funnel is not included. Oil level after filling, has to be close to the
upper part of oil filler.

Oil pollutes land and groundwater. Do not allow the oil leaking from
the crankcase. Drain used oil to a tightly closing container. Return
used oil into recycling of wasted oil.
