7.4 Maintenance operations to be carried out
by qualified personnel
To carry out certain servicing operations, it is
possible to extract the engine-alternator assem-
bly from the front. (See paragraph 4.3.).
This will make it easier to obtain access to all the
inside parts of the generating set for unscheduled
maintenance or repair operations.
7.4.1 Engine oil replacement
Use multigrade oil for four-stroke petrol engines
having a SAE viscosity degree suited to the cli-
mate the generating set is working in (see table
and detailed instructions in the engine use and
maintenance manual).
To make it easier to drain the spent engine oil, it
is advisable to let the engine run for 3 - 5 min-
utes; in this way, the oil will be more fluid and
emptying will be quicker and more thorough.
Undo the special cap on the soil sump (Fig.34
Ref.1) which can be reached through a special
hole under the sound-proofing case (Fig.35 Ref.
2) and allow all the contained oil to be drained to
a collecting tank.
After doing this, screw the cap back on and re-
store the oil level inside the oil sump, using the
filler hole (Fig.33 Ref. 2).
Check the following table for the right amount of
oil to pour in the sump (Table 2).

•
Hot oil can scald.
•
Causing the engine to run when the oil
level is too low can seriously damage it.
•
Check the oil level when the engine has
been turned off.
Spent oil should not be
disposed freely in the environment but taken
to special disposal centres carrying out dis-
posal and/or recycling in compliance with the
applicable law provisions in force in the
country of use.
