4. Wait one minute and check oil level.
5. Add engine oil as needed until the level is
between the upper (2,
)
and lower
(3,

lines on the oil cap/dipstick
.
NOTICE

Engine Oil Capacity
The following table shows engine oil capacities for
YANMAR YDG generators.
GENERATOR CHECK
WARNING
Always have a licensed electrician connect the
generator to the utility circuit. The generator
must not be connected to other power sources.
Improper installation can cause the generator
to back-feed into the utility power line. This may
electrocute a power company line repair
person. Also, if the generator is powering
electrical circuits, the chance of an electrical
fire exists.
1. Only use grounded extension cords. Be sure to
use an extension cord with the proper wire
gauge size. See the following table.
2. If electrical separation cannot be adopted for
indirect contact protection (see page 3),
properly ground the unit:
• Attach a #10 stranded-copper ground wire to
the ground lug.
• Drive a grounding point into the ground. The
grounding point can be a stake, grounding rod
or pipe. The grounding point should be copper
or brass.
CAUTION
Never use metal pipe that carries combustible
materials or gases to ground the generator.
Always ground the generator. Connect a
length of heavy wire between the generator
ground terminal and an external ground.
