LUBRICANT

The oil indicator will light and the engine will automatically 
shut off whenever the lubricant level in the engine becomes 
low. The engine may not be restarted until suf

fi

 cient 

engine lubricant has been added to the generator.

NOTE:

 It is normal for the indicator lights to illuminate and/ 

or blink each time the engine is started. Once the engine 
warms up, the lights should default to the conditions 
indicated above.

CHECKING/ADDING LUBRICANT

See Figure 3.

 CAUTION

Attempting to start the engine before it has been properly 

fi

 lled with oil will result in equipment failure. Engine 

lubricant has a major in

fl

 uence on engine performance 

and service life. For general, all-temperature use, SAE 
10W-30 is recommended. Always use a 4-stroke motor 
lubricant that meets or exceeds the requirements for 
API service classi

fi

 cation SJ.

NOTE:

 Non-detergent or 2-stroke engine lubricants will 

damage the engine and should not be used. 

■

Loosen the screws at the side of the engine cover. 
Remove cover and set aside.

■

Unscrew the oil cap/dipstick and remove.

■

Wipe dipstick clean and re-seat in hole; do not re-
thread.

■

Remove dipstick again and check lubricant level. 
Lubricant level should fall between the minimum and 
maximum marks on the dipstick.

■

If level is low, add engine lubricant until the fluid level 
rises between the minimum and maximum marks on 
the dipstick. 

■

Replace and secure the oil cap/dipstick.

USING FUEL STABILISER

■

Fuel gets old, oxidizes, and breaks down over time. 
Adding a fuel stabilizer (not included) extends the 
usable life of fuel and helps prevent deposits from 
forming that can clog the fuel system. Follow fuel 
stabilizer manufacturer’s directions for correct ratio of 
stabilizer to fuel.

■

Mix fuel stabilizer and gasoline prior to filling the tank 
by using a gas can or other approved fuel container 
and shaking gently to combine.

NOTE:

 To control the amount of fuel stabilizer being 

added to the engine, always mix fuel stabilizer with 
gasoline before fueling the tank rather than adding fuel 

stabilizer directly into the generator’s fuel tank.

■

Replace and secure the fuel tank cap.

■

Start and run the engine for at least 5 minutes to  allow 
stabilizer to treat the entire fuel system.

ETHANOL FUELS

 CAUTION

Do not use E15 or E85 fuel (or fuel containing greater 
than 10% ethanol) in the product. It is a violation of 
federal law and will damage the product and void your 
warranty.

Fuel system damage or performance problems resulting 
from the use of an ethanol fuel containing more than the 
percentage of oxygenates stated below are not covered 
under warranty.
Ethanol. Gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol by volume 
(commonly referred to as E10) is acceptable. E15 and E85 
are not.

CHECKING/ADDING FUEL 

See Figure 4.

 WARNING

Gasoline and its vapours are highly 

fl

 ammable  and 

explosive. To prevent serious personal injury and 
property damage, handle gasoline with care. Keep 
away from ignition sources, handle outdoors only, 
do not smoke while adding fuel, and wipe up spills 
immediately.

When adding fuel to the generator, make sure the product 
is sitting on a 

fl

 at, level surface. If the engine is hot, let the 

generator cool before adding gas. Always 

fi

 ll the fuel tank 

outdoors with the machine turned off.

■

Remove the fuel cap.

■

Fill the fuel tank to 25 mm below the top of the fuel 
neck.

■

Replace and secure the fuel cap.

NOTE:

 Always use unleaded gasoline with a pump 

octane rating of 86 or higher. Never use old, stale, or 
contaminated unleaded fuel, and do not use an oil/fuel 
mixture. Do not allow dirt or water into the fuel tank. Do 
not use E85 fuel.

STARTING THE ENGINE

See Figures 5-7.
