SAE 30
:
40 °F and higher (5 °C and higher)
is good
for all purpose use above 40°F, use below 40°F will
cause hard starting.
10W-30
:
0 to 100 °F (-18 to 38 °C)
is better for
varying temperature conditions. This viscosity
improves cold weather starting, but may increase oil
consumption above 80ºF (27ºC).
Synthetic 5W-30
:
-20 to 120 °F (-30 to 40 °C)
provides the best protection at all temperatures as
well as improved starting with less oil consumption.
5W-30
:
40 °F and below (5 °C and below)
is
recommended for winter use, and works best in cold
conditions.
Checking Oil Level
Oil level should be checked prior to each use or at
least every 5 hours of operation. Keep oil level
maintained.
1.
Make sure generator is on a level surface.
2.
Clean area around oil fill and remove oil fill cap.
3.
Verify oil is at the point of overflowing at oil fill
opening.
4.
Replace and tighten oil fill cap.
Adding Engine Oil
1.
Make sure generator is on a level surface.
2.
Check oil level as described in
Checking Oil
Level
.
3.
If needed, slowly pour oil into oil fill opening to the
point of overflowing at oil fill.
4.
Replace and tighten oil fill cap.
Changing Engine Oil
Change the oil after the first 5 hours of operation.
Change oil every 50 hours thereafter. If you are using
your generator under extremely dirty or dusty
conditions, or in extremely hot weather, change the oil
more often.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
DON’T POLLUTE. CONSERVE
RESOURCES. RETURN USED OIL TO
COLLECTION CENTERS.
Change the oil while the engine is still warm from
running, as follows:
1.
Make sure unit is on a level surface.
2.
Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark
plug and place the wire where it cannot contact
spark plug.
3.
Clean area around oil drain plug (
A
). The oil drain
plug is located at base of engine, opposite
carburetor (Figure 11).
4.
Remove oil drain plug and drain oil completely
into a suitable container.
5.
Reinstall oil drain plug and tighten securely.
Remove oil fill cap.
6.
Slowly pour oil (about 28 oz.) into oil fill
opening (
B
) to the point of overflowing (
C
) at oil fill
cap (Figure 11). DO NOT overfill.
7.
Reinstall oil fill cap. Finger tighten cap securely.
8.
Wipe up any spilled oil.
•
Used motor oil has been shown to cause skin cancer in
certain laboratory animals.
•
Thoroughly wash exposed areas with soap and water.
