OIL CHECK AND OIL CHANGE
ATTENTION: The engine oil is best changed when the engine is at working temperature. Beware of
oil, as being hot can cause burns.
To change the oil:
1. Place the machine on a flat, horizontal, unobstructed surface.
2. Unscrew the oil filler cap
3. Unscrew the oil drain screw and drain the hot engine oil into a suitable container through the drain channel.
Tilt the generator to drain the oil completely.
4. After all the oil has drained, tighten the oil drain screw and clean the drain channel with a cloth.
5. Add new engine oil with the oil fill funnel until the top fill mark on the oil dipstick is reached. Insert the
dipstick without screwing in the oil plug.
6. Remove and check the mark that the oil has left on the dipstick. The signal left by the oil must be between
the minimum and maximum marks.
7. If the mark is below the minimum, add a little more oil and check again.
8. If the mark is above the maximum you will have to remove oil from the crankcase. To do this, tilt the machine
sideways, place a container at the end of the tube to prevent oil from spilling down the machine or onto
the floor.
