If the choke knob was moved to
the CLOSED position, move to
the OPEN position as the
engine warms up.
The Oil Alert system is designed to prevent engine damage caused by
an insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. Before the oil level in the
crankcase can fall below a safe limit, the Oil Alert system will
automatically stop the engine (the engine switch will remain in the ON
position).
If the engine stops and will not restart, check the engine oil level (see
page
) before troubleshooting in other areas.
During operation, the engine will automatically stop if there is not
enough oil in the tank. Moreover, if the generator is on a slope, the oil
alert function may operate, and stop the engine.
To protect the engine from exceeding the engine load, the engine will
automatically stop if the engine speed becomes abnormal.
The engine will automatically stop during generation when it detects
abnormal voltage.
If the engine stops, inspect the amount of engine oil, and a while, then
try to restart the engine. When the engine will not start at all, take your
generator to the dealer.
