5.4 Engine Oil
Recommended Engine Oil
Check the oil level prior to starting the generator set to verify that the oil level is
between the High and Low marks. The generator set is shipped with engine oil
(5W30 API SM engine oil is recommended).
Checking Engine Oil Level
NOTICE
Check the engine oil level when the engine is not running and is out of Auto
mode.
WARNING
Crankcase pressure can blow out hot oil and cause severe burns. Do NOT
check oil while the engine is operating.
CAUTION
Overfilling can cause foaming or aeration of the oil while operation below the
low mark may cause loss of oil pressure. Do not operate the engine with the
oil level below the low mark or above the high mark.
WARNING
State and federal agencies have determined that contact with used engine oil
can cause cancer or reproductive toxicity. Avoid skin contact and breathing
of vapors. Use rubber gloves and wash exposed skin. Accidental or remote
starting of the generator set can cause severe personal injury or death.
Disconnect the negative (-) battery cable and place the control switch in its
OFF position before starting work.
