- Check the oil level with the cap/dipstick. (Fig.2
Ref.13).
The oil level must always be between the MAX and
MIN notches on the dipstick.
- When checking the oil level, ensure that the
generator is positioned horizontally.

5.3 Engine oil change

Check the engine oil level with the dipstick positioned on
the oil fillercap (Fig. 2 Ref. 13).
Check the oil only with the engine is positioned on a flat
surface and the oil filler cap not screwed down but only
resting.
If the engine oil level is low, top up using only classified
multigrade oils SE, SF, SG, SH in accordance with the
API classification system.
To change the engine oil, remove the fillercap and the
drain plug (Fig. 2 Ref. 14) and let the oil flow into a
collection container.
It is recommended to carry out this operation with the oil
hot for easier drainage.
Close the drain plug and pour in the necessary quantity
of oil to fill the oil sump to the maximum level.
EA 50R - Oil sump capacity 1 l
EA 60RT - Oil sump capacity 1 l
EA 80R - Oil sump capacity 1.2 l
EA 90RT - Oil sump capacity 1.2 l
Always check correct viscosity of the engine oil in
relation to the range of ambient temperatures in
which the generator operates as indicated in the table
in Fig.5.
Dispose of the used oil in an appropriate manner,
since it is a polluting product.
Take the used engine oil to special collection centres
for disposal.
- Protect hands from contact with oil by wearing
gloves.
In the event of accidental contact with engine oil,
thoroughly wash the affected part with soap and
water.
- During oil top-up and refuelling, respect the
maximum level indication. An excessive quantity
of engine oil may cause damage to the engine.

5.4 Air filter

Check and clean the filtering element according to the
following procedures:
- Brush or dust off all the dust, dirt and deposits on the
air filter cover.
- Remove the air filter cover by unscrewing the retaining
screws (Fig. 2 Ref. 2).
- Immerse the filtering element in a non-inflammable
solvent and wash it.
- To remove the solvent, wring out the filtering element
without twisting it to prevent breakage.
- Immerse the filtering element in a container of engine
oil. Squeeze the filtering element to remove excess oil.
Ensure that the filtering element is moistened in oil but
not soaked.
- Dry the inside of the air filter with a clean cloth.
