Operation
LOW OIL LEVEL SHUTDOWN
This generator is equipped with a low oil level shut down. If the oil
level in the engine crankcase drops below a pre-determined level,
the engine will stop automatically and the "LOW OIL LEVEL" LED
will light up.
Remove the Left Side Service Cover and check the oil level of
the engine. Add or drain oil as necessary; refer to see the section
"ADDING ENGINE OIL".
FUELING THE GENERATOR
Use care when fueling the generator. Only fill the fuel tank when
the generator has cooled entirely. Use fresh unleaded gasoline with
a minimum Research Octane Number (RON) of 87.
Do not use any gasoline containing more than 10% Ethanol.
NEVER fill the fuel tank with E85 or a mixture of oil and gasoline
designated for two-cycle engines.
Do not light a cigarette or smoke when filling the
fuel tank.
Gasoline is highly FLAMMABLE and its
vapors are EXPLOSIVE. Do not permit
smoking, open flames, sparks or heat in the
vicinity while handling gasoline.
Never fill fuel tank indoors. never fill fuel
thank when engine is running or hot. avoid
spilling gasoline on a hot engine. allow
engine to cool entirely before filling fuel tank.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always allow
room for fuel expansion. If tank is over-filled,
fuel can overflow onto a hot engine and
cause FIRE or an EXPLOSION. Wipe up fuel
spills immediately!
TO FILL THE FUEL TANK
1. Remove the fuel tank cap.
2. Add fuel slowly, stopping about two (2) inches below the top
of the filler neck.
3. Replace the fuel tank cap. Make sure the valve on the fuel cap
is in the "OFF" position.
4. If the generator is going to be started, refer to the section
"STARTING THE GENERATOR" for additional directions on
priming the fuel system.

ADDING ENGINE OIL
All oil should meet minimum American Petroleum Institute (API)
Service Class SJ, SL or better. Do not use any aftermarket
additives.
Select the oil's viscosity grade according to the expected operating
temperature.
• Above 40° F, use SAE 30
• Below 40° F to 10° F, use 10W-30
• Below 10° F, use synthetic 5W-30

TO ADD ENGINE OIL TO THE CRANKCASE
1. Place the unit on a firm, level surface (not to exceed 15° in any
direction).
2. Remove the Left Side Service Cover.
3. Remove the oil fill cap located on the bottom of the engine
crankcase.
