ENGINE MAINTENANCE
Air Filter Maintenance
Use fresh and high quality lubricating oil to the
specified quantity.
If contaminated or deteriorated oil is used or
the quantity of the engine oil is not sufficient,
the engine damage will result and its life will be
greatly shortened.

NOTE:

To prevent accidental starting, remove and
ground spark plug wire before performing any
service.
If you are using your generator under extremely
dirty or dusty conditions, or in extremely hot
weather, change the oil more often.
Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact with
used motor oil.
CAUTION
Used motor oil has been shown to cause skin
cancer in certain laboratory animals.
Thoroughly wash exposed areas with soap
and water.

(a) Drain oil by removing the drain plug and the
oil filler cap while the engine is warm.
Change engine oil every 100 hours.
(for a new engine, change oil after 25 hours.)
DRAIN PLUG
Please use a container to dump the
used oil for protecting the environment.
(b) Reinstall the drain plug and fill the engine
with oil until it reaches the HIGH(H) level on the
oil filler cap.
Maintaining an air filter in proper condition is
very important. Dirt induced through improperly
installed, improperly serviced, or inadequate
elements damages and wears out engines.
Always keep the element clean.
(a) Take out the air cleaner, clean it well in
kerosene and dry it.
(b) After wetting the element by clean engine
oil squeeze it tight by hand.
(c)Lastly, put the element in the case and install
it securely.
