CHECKING/ADDING LUBRICANT
See Figure 8.
NOTICE: Attempting to start the engine before it has
been properly filled with lubricant will result in equi-
pment failure.
NOTE: If a separate engine manual is provided for this
product, please follow the instructions provided in the
engine manual instead of the information listed below.
Engine lubricant has a major influence on engine perfor-
mance and service life. For general, all-temperature use,
SAE 10W30 full synthetic is recommended. Always use a
4-stroke motor lubricant that meets or exceeds the requi-
rements for API service classification SJ.
This engine comes with a feature that will shut off the
engine when a specific lubricant level is not maintained.
The engine will not restart until an appropriate lubricant
level is reached.
NOTE: Non-detergent or 2-stroke engine lubricants will
damage the engine and should not be used.
- 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. Lubri-
cant level should fall between the hatched areas on the
dipstick.
- If level is low, add engine lubricant until the fluid level
rises to the upper portion of the dipstick.
- Replace and secure the oil cap/dipstick.
USING FUEL STABILIZER
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 manufac-
turer'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.
