SERVICING YOUR GENERATOR

ENGINE OIL LEVEL CHECK

UPPER LIMIT

OIL FILLER CAP

DIPSTICK

Check the engine oil level with the generator on a level surface and the
engine stopped.

Open the right maintenance cover by turning its latch
counterclockwise.

Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe it clean.

Insert and remove the dipstick without screwing it into the filler neck.
Check the oil level shown on the dipstick.

If the oil level is low, fill to the top of the oil filler neck with the
recommended oil (see page

).

Screw in the oil filler cap/dipstick securely.

Close the right maintenance cover by turning its latch clockwise.

The Oil Alert system will automatically stop the engine before the oil
level falls below safe limits. However, to avoid the inconvenience of an
unexpected shutdown, check the oil level regularly.
