GENERATOR SETUP (CONTINUED)
Add oil
The generator requires engine oil to operate properly. The generator, when new from the package
contains no oil in the crankcase
*
. You must add the proper amount of oil before operating the
generator for the rst time. This amount is equal to the oil capacity of the engine crankcase:
WARNING: Do not apply engine oils with additives or 2-stroke gasoline engine oils. They don’t
have enough lubrication, and may shorten the engine’s service life.
a. Make sure the generator is on a level surface.
b. Unscrew the oil ller/dipstick cap from the engine .
c. Using a funnel, add the appropriate amount of oil
into the crankcase. You will know the crankcase is
full when the oil level has reached the lower lip of
the opening you have just poured the oil into.
d. Replace oil ller cap.
