Care, maintenance and repair

Step 5: Remove the other black rubber seal on the front 

of the oil drain plug.

Step 6: Use a wrench through the hole to remove the oil 

drain plug and allow the oil to drain completely.

Fig. 35: Remove oil drain plug 

Step 7: Replace the oil drain plug and tighten it firmly.

Step 8: Replace the two black rubber seals.

Step 9: Hold the generator level and top up the engine oil 

as described in the section "Filling the engine 
oil" in this manual. See the "Filling Engine Oil" 
section earlier in this manual for the amount of 
engine oil required to top up the generator.

Step 10: Replace the oil filler cap / dipstick securely.

Step 11: Replace the left maintenance cover (Fig.37). 

Tighten the screws

.

12.6.3  Replace / clean spark plug

The spark plug must be clean and free of deposits to en-
sure proper engine operation. If the engine is hot, allow it 
to cool down before replacing the spark plug.

Step 1: Loosen the screws on the side of the right main-

tenance cover. Remove the cover and put it 
aside.

Step 2: Remove the spark plug connector.

Step 3: Clean dirt from the spark plug base.

Step 4: Remove the spark plug with a spark plug wrench.

Fig. 36: Spark plug

Step 5: Check the spark plug. Replace it if the electrode 

is worn or dirty or the insulator has cracks or 
chipping.

Step 6: Measure the spark plug electrode gap with a fee-

ler gauge. Correct the gap if necessary by ca-
refully bending the side electrode. The gap 
should be:0.7 to 0.8 mm (0.028 to 0.031 inch).

Fig. 37: Check electrode distance 

Step 7: Insert the spark plug by hand to prevent overtigh-

tening. Then tighten the spark plug

.

Step 8: Attach the spark plug cap and close the main-

tenance cover.

12.6.4   Clean / replace spark arrester

The spark arrester must be serviced every 100 hours to 
ensure that it works as intended.

When the engine is running, the exhaust is very hot. Let 
the exhaust cool down before servicing the spark arre-
ster.

Step 1: Remove the two screws and take off the tail pipe 

and the spark arrester.

NOTE!

Do not change engine oil when hot. Accidental con-
tact with hot engine oil can cause severe burns.

NOTE!

Used engine oil must be disposed of at an approved 
disposal point. For further information, please contact 
your local dealer.

NOTE!

An incorrectly tightened spark plug becomes very hot 
and can damage the engine.
