MAINTENANCE

ENGINE OIL CHANGE

Accidental start-up. Remove the spark plug boot from
the spark plug when working on the generator.
When using the generator under extreme, dirty, dusty
conditions or in extremely hot weather, change the oil
more frequently. Change the oil while the engine is still
warm from operation.
1. Place the generator on a level surface and allow the
engine to cool for several minutes.
Note: Placing the generator on a raised surface slightly
above the oil pan will facilitate draining.
2. Remove the engine service cover and spark plug cover.
Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and
place the wire where it cannot contact the spark plug.
3. With a damp rag, clean around the oil dipstick. Remove
the dipstick and wipe clean.
4. Place an oil pan (or suitable container) under the oil fill/
drain hole.
5. Tilt the generator to drain the oil.
6. Slowly pour oil into the oil fill opening until oil the level
is between the L and H marks on the dipstick. Stop
frequently to check the oil level. DO NOT overfill.
Maximum oil capacity: 0.37 US qt (0.35 L)
7. Replace the dipstick and hand-tighten.
8. Connect the spark plug wire and install the engine
service cover.
Do not pollute. Follow the guidelines of the EPA or other
governmental agencies for proper disposal of hazardous
materials. Consult local authorities or reclamation facility.
