Low Oil Shutdown

If the engine oil drops below a preset level, an oil
switch will stop the engine or will not allow you to start
the engine. Make sure unit is on a level surface and
check oil level with dipstick.
If oil level is at FULL mark on dipstick:
1. DO NOT try to restart the engine.
2. Contact an Authorized Briggs & Stratton Service Dealer.
3. DO NOT operate engine until oil level is corrected.
If oil level is below FULL mark on dipstick:
1. Add oil to bring level to FULL mark.
2. Restart engine and if the engine stops again a low
oil condition may still exist. DO NOT try to restart
the engine.
3. Contact an Authorized Briggs & Stratton Service
Dealer.
4. DO NOT operate engine until oil level is corrected.

Cold Weather Operation

Under certain weather conditions (temperatures
below 4°C [40°F] combined with high humidity), your
generator may experience icing of the carburetor and/
or the crankcase breather system. To reduce this
problem, you need to perform the following:
1. Make sure generator has clean, fresh fuel.
2. Turn the fuel valve to the ON (I) position.
3. Use SAE 5W-30 oil.
4. Check oil level daily or after every eight (8) hours
of operation.
5. Maintain generator following Maintenance
Schedule in Maintenance section.
6. Shelter unit from elements.
Building a Cold Weather Shelter
1. Using material with a fire rating of at least one
hour, build a shelter that will enclose three sides
and the top of the generator. Make sure muffler
sides of generator are exposed.
NOTICE Contact your local building material supplier
for materials with a fire rating of at least one hour.
2. Build at least 15.24 cm (6 in.) of clearance
inside shelter on all sides of generator including
overhead and engine recoil end. Shelter should
hold enough heat created by the generator to
prevent icing problem.
6"
NOTICE Exposed exhaust end should be flush with
generator.
3. If required, cut appropriate slots to access
receptacles of unit.
4. Face exposed end away from wind and elements.
NOTICE Be sure shelter can easily be repositioned
for change in wind direction.
