Add Engine Oil
CAUTION
DO NOT attempt to crank or start the engine before
it has been properly fi lled with the recommended
type and amount of oil. Damage to the generator as
a result of failure to follow these instructions will
void your warranty.
NOTE
The recommended oil type is 10W-30 automotive oil.
1. Place the generator on a fl at, level surface.
2. Remove oil fi ll cap/dipstick to add oil.
3. Add oil and replace oil fi ll cap/dipstick. DO NOT
OVERFILL.
4. Check engine oil level daily and add as needed.
NOTE
Once oil has been added, a visual check should show
oil about 1-2 threads from running out of the fi ll hole.
If using the dipstick to check oil level, DO NOT screw
in the dipstick while checking.
CAUTION
The engine is equipped with a low oil shut-off and
will stop when the oil level in the crankcase falls
below the threshold level.
Add Engine Oil Cont'd.
NOTE
Check oil often during the break-in period. Refer to the
Maintenance section for recommended service intervals.
NOTE
The generator rotor has a sealed, pre-lubricated ball
bearing that requires no additional lubrication for
the life of the bearing.
NOTE
We consider the fi rst 5 hours of run time to be
the break-in period for the unit. During the break
in period stay at or below 50% of the running
watt rating and vary the load occasionally to allow
stator windings to heat and cool. Adjusting the
load will also cause engine speed to vary and help
seat piston rings. After the 5 hour break-in period,
change the oil.

NOTE
Weather will affect engine oil and engine
performance. Change the type of engine oil used
based on weather conditions to suit the engine
needs.
NOTE
Synthetic oil may be used after the 5 hour initial
break-in period. Using synthetic oil does not
increase the recommended oil change interval.
Full synthetic 5W-30 oil will aid in starting in cold
