MAINTENANCE
CHANGING THE OIL
It is recommended that you change the oil when the engine is still warm as this will allow
you to drain all the oil from the engine.
Unscrew the oil filler cap. Remove the drain plug and drain the used oil. The drain plug is
located on the bottom of the engine block next to the oil filter. Replace the drain plug and
refill with new oil. Take not to over fill with oil. Use the dipstick to check how much oil is in
the engine. We recommend 15W 40 Grade non- or part-synthetic oil.
CHECKING AND CHANGING THE AIR FILTER
To check the air filter, unscrew the wing nut for the air filter cover and remove the cover.
Remove the air filter element. Do not use detergent to wash the filter element. Clean with
water and allow to completely dry before re-fitting to the engine. The air filter element
should be replaced every 6 months. Do not operate the generator without the filter
attached as this can damage the engine.
CHECKING THE BATTERY
Check the amount of electrolytic solution in the battery once a month. If the level of
electrolytic solution is below the minimum level mark on the battery, then top up with
distilled water.
CHANGING THE FUEL FILTER
First drain all the fuel from the fuel tank. Loosen the small screws on the fuel switch and
remove the fuel filter from the port. Use diesel fuel to clean the filter. To replace the filter
just reverse the step for removing the filter.
