MAINTENANCE

ENGINE MAINTENANCE

Unintentional sparking can result in fire or
electric shock.
WHEN ADJUSTING OR MAKING REPAIRS TO YOUR
GENERATOR
• Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and place
the wire where it cannot contact spark plug.

Oil
Oil Recommendations
NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use only
high quality detergent oil rated with API service
classification SF, SG, SH, SJ or higher. DO NOT use special
additives. DO NOT USE SAE 10W-40.
1.
Choose a viscosity according to the following table:
5W-30, 10W-30
* The use of multi-viscosity oils (5W-30, 10W-30, etc.) in
temperatures above 40°F (4°C) will result in higher than
normal oil consumption.When using a multi-viscosity oil,
check oil more frequently.
** If using SAE 30 oil in temperatures below 40°F (4°C), it
will result in hard starting and possible engine bore damage
due to inadequate lubrication.
Checking Oil Level
Oil level should be checked prior to each use or at least
every 8 hours of operation. Keep oil level maintained.
1.
Make sure generator is on a level surface.
2.
Remove oil fill cap and wipe clean with cloth.
3.
Verify oil is at the point of overflowing at oil fill opening.
