MAINTENANCE
DRAINING / CHANGING OIL
Change the oil according to the Recommended Maintenance Schedule in Table 4.
Change the oil MORE OFTEN if operating under heavy load or high ambient temperatures. It is also necessary to
drain the oil from the crankcase if it has become contaminated with water or dirt. Changing the oil when the engine
is warm allows for more-complete drainage.
To change engine oil:
1. With the help of another person, place the generator on an
elevated platform such as table or workbench.
NOTE: To avoid possible gasoline spills from the carburetor
bowl, drain the carburetor (see page 29) before draining oil.
2. Turn the oil access cover knob to the unlocked position, and
remove the cover from the side panel.
3. Prepare an approved oil-storage container and place it be-
low the oil drainage valve (Fig. 26) to catch oil as it drains.
4. Open the oil drainage valve by turning the lever, and allow
oil to drain from the engine completely.
5. Close the oil drainage valve after the oil has drained.

NOTE:
Never dispose of used engine oil in the trash or down a drain. Please call a local recycling center or auto
garage to arrange proper oil disposal.
6. Unscrew the oil dipstick. Using a funnel or appropriate dispenser, add 18.6 oz. of clean engine oil into the oil fill
until you can see oil coming up the threads of the oil fill. Do not over fill.
7. Reinstall the oil dipstick and tighten it securely. Wipe clean any oil spillage and reinstall the oil access cover.
