Generac 005875-1 - Manual (Page 2)

FEATURES Generac ® Guardian ® Series Standby Generator - 20 kW
ENGINE
•Generac (OHVI) Design
•”Spiny-lok” cast iron cylinder walls
•Electronic ignition/spark advance
•Full pressure lubrication system
•Low oil pressure shutdown system
•High temperature shutdown
Maximizes engine “breathing” for increased fuel efficiency. Plateau honed cylinder walls and plasma
moly rings helps the engine run cooler, reducing oil consumption resulting in longer engine life.
Rigid construction and added durability provide long engine life.
These features combine to assure smooth, quick starting every time.
Pressurized lubrication to all vital bearings means better performance, less maintenance and longer
engine life. Now featuring a 2 year/200 hour oil change interval.
Superior shutdown protection prevents catastrophic engine damage due to low oil.
Prevents damage due to overheating.
