Low Oil Shutdown; Add Fuel - Firman W03383 El Manual Del Propietario

The engine is equipped with a low oil shut-off and
will stop when the oil level in the crankcase falls
below the threshold level.
We consider the first 5 hours of run time to be the
break-in period for the unit. During the break in
period stay at or below 50% of the running watt
rating and vary the load occasionally to allow
stator windings to heat and cool. Adjusting the
load will also cause engine speed to vary and help
seat piston rings.

Low oil shutdown

The unit is equipped with a low oil shutdown.If the
oil level becomes lower than required,the sensor will
activate a warning device or stop the engine.
If generator shuts off and the oil level is within
specifications, check to see if generator is sitting at
an angle that forces oil to shift. Place on an even
surface to correct this. If engine fails to start, the oil
level may not be sufficient to deactivate low oil level
switch. Make sure the sump is completely full of oil.
