1.Place generator on a flat, level surface.

2.Clean area around oil fill and remove yellow

oil fill cap/dipstick.

3.Wipe dipstick clean.

NOTE:

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.

NOTE:

We consider the first 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.
