The following section describes the required steps for preparing this generator for the first use. Failure to correctly perform these steps
can damage this generator and/or shorten its life. If still unsure about how to perform any of these steps after reading this section, call

If this generator is being used for the first time, the following few steps are required to prepare it for operation:
Step 1 - Add Oil
This generator requires engine oil to function. Engine oil is a major factor affecting engine performance and service life. When new from
the package, this generator contains no oil in the engine crankcase. The correct quantity of oil is equal to the oil capacity of the engine crankcase
and is 38 fluid oz (1.13 L) for this model GEN7000LP 7000 Surge Watts / 6000 Running Watts Electric Start Portable LP Generator. Add the correct
quantity of oil before operating this generator for the first time. When replenishing oil for subsequent use of this generator, always determine that this
generator has the correct quantity of oil.
Model GEN7000LP Oil Capacity
0.30Gallon / 1.1 Liter / 38 ounces
Model GEN7000LP Oil Type Recommended
High Detergent Motor Oil, SAE10W-30
To add oil:
1. Confirm that this generator is on a level surface.
2. Unscrew the oil filler/dipstick cap from the engine as illustrated in Figure 1.
3. Using a funnel, add high detergent motor oil to fill the engine crankcase to the correct quantity as stated above. SAE10W-30 oil is recommended
for general, all-temperature use. When the engine crankcase is full, the oil level should reach the lower lip of the oil filling opening as illustrated in
Figure 2.
4. Replace the oil filler/dipstick cap.
