Oil Level Alert Indicator
The Oil Level Alert Indicator system is designed to prevent engine damage caused by an
insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. Before oil level in crankcase can fall below a safe
limit, the Oil Level Alert Indicator (red) comes on (shown below) and the Oil Level Alert Indicator
system automatically will stop the engine (engine switch will remain in ON position). If engine
stops or the Oil Level Alert Indicator (red) comes on after pulling the starter grip, check the engine
oil level (see section 5.2) before troubleshooting in other areas.

Ground Terminal
The generator ground terminal is connected to the frame of the generator, the metal non-current-
carrying parts of the generator, and the ground terminals of each receptacle. If using the ground
terminal for grounding the Ex-Power DEFENDER generator, consult a qualified electrician,
electrical inspector, or local agency having jurisdiction for local codes or ordinances that apply
to the intended use of the generator. The ground terminal is mainly used when connecting two
Ex-Power DEFENDER generators for parallel AC operation via the optional AC parallel cable
assembly (available from Novatio).
