Oil Level Inspection

IMPORTANT

  • Failure to use the proper 4-stroke engine oil may result in engine damage.

  • Using non-recommended oil may cause serious engine damage. Never substitute or mix oil brands.

  • Inspect the oil level before each use with the engine stopped and the generator on a level surface.

  1. Remove the oil filler cap / dipstick and wipe it clean.

  2. Insert the dipstick into filler neck, without screwing it in, to inspect the oil level.

  3. Remove the dipstick and verify that the oil is at the upper limit. Add additional oil and inspect the level as needed until the upper limit has been reached.

  4. Re-install the dipstick. Use a clean shop rag to clean any spilled oil.

NOTICE

  • Do not tilt generator when adding engine oil. This could result in overfilling and damage to the engine.

  • Use high quality 4-stroke engine oil, certified to meet or exceed API standard SG, SF, SAE ratings with strong detergents. Using non-detergent or 2-stroke oil could shorten the engine’s working life.

  • Do not mix different engine oils.

  • Handle and store the engine oil with care, avoid getting dirt or dust into the engine oil.

  • Before the engine oil falls below the safety margin, the low oil alert system ill automatically shut off the engine. The low oil light (RED) will illuminate.

  • To avoid the inconvenience of unexpected engine shutdown, check oil level before each use.
