The recommended oil type for typical use is 5W-30
automotive oil. However, using the listed conventional oils
shown in the "Recommended Engine Oil Type" chart may be
used for typical use including the first 5 hours of the break-in
run time period of the engine.
If running generator in extreme temperatures, refer to the
"Recommended Engine Oil Type" chart.

Check oil level often during the break-in period. Refer to the
Maintenance section for recommended service intervals.
This engine is equipped with a low oil shut-off and will stop
when the oil level in the crankcase falls below the threshold
level.
The first 5 hours of run time are 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 slightly and help seat piston rings.

After the 5 hour break-in period, change the oil.
Synthetic oil may be used after the 5 hour initial break-in
period. Using synthetic oil does not decrease the recommended
oil change interval. Full synthetic 5W-30 oil will aid in starting
in cold ambient < 41º F (5º C) temperatures.
