CHECK OIL LEVEL
Check the crankcase oil level prior to each use, or when the
fuel tank is fi lled. Insuffi cient oil may cause severe damage
to the engine. Make sure the generator is level. The oil
level must be between the two notches on the dipstick as
shown in Figure 29.
Replacing Oil Filter

Remove the old oil fi lter.

Apply a fi lm of oil to the gasket on the new oil fi lter.

Install the new oil fi lter.

After the oil cartridge has been replaced, the engine oil
will drop slightly. Run the engine for a while and check for
leaks before adding more oil if needed. Clean excessive
oil from engine.
FLUSHING OUT RADIATOR AND REPLACING
COOLANT

Open both cocks located at the crankcase side and at
the lower part of the radiator and drain coolant. Open
the radiator cap while draining. Remove the overfl ow
tank and drain.

Check hoses for softening and kinks. Check clamps for
signs of leakage.

Tighten both cocks and replace the overfl ow tank.

manufacturer.

Close radiator cap tightly.

Flush the radiator by running clean tap water through

radiator. Flushing the radiator while hot
could cause serious burns from water or
steam.
RADIATOR CLEANING
The radiator (Figure 61) should be sprayed (cleaned) with
a high pressure washer when excessive amounts of dirt
and debris have accumulated on the cooling fi ns or tube.
When using a high pressure washer, stand at least 5 feet
(1.5 meters) away from the radiator to prevent damage to
the fi ns and tube.
