Oil
IMPORTANT: Any attempt to crank or start the engine
before it has been properly serviced with the
recommended
oil may result in an engine failure.
NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use
only high quality detergent oil rated with API service
classification SF, SG, SH, SJ or higher rated
SAE 30 weight. Do Not use special additives.

* The use of multi-viscosity oils (5W-30, 10W-30, etc.)
in temperatures
above 40°F (4°C) will result in higher
than normal oil consumption. When using a multi-
viscosity oil, check oil more frequently.
** If using SAE 30 oil in temperatures below 40°F
(4°C), it will result in hard starting and possible engine
bore damage due to inadequate lubrication.
2.
Place generator on a level surface.
3.
Clean area around oil fill and remove oil dipstick.
4.
Wipe dipstick clean. Pour oil into oil fill opening.
Replace and tighten dipstick.
5.
Pause to permit oil to settle. Remove and and
check oil level. Oil level should be at "Full" mark
on dipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL.

WARNINGI
NEVER fill fuel tank indoors.
NEVER fill fuel tank when engine is running or
hot. Allow unit to cool for two minutes before
refueling. DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke
when filling the fuel tank.

WARNINGI
DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.
Always leave room for expansion.
1.
Use regular UNLEADED fuel with generator
engine. DO NOT use premium fuel. DO NOT mix
oil with fuel.

3.
Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.
Slowly add unleaded regular fuel to fuel tank. Be
careful not to overfill. Allow about 1.5" of tank
space for fuel expansion, as shown here.

4.
Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled fuel.
IMPORTANT:
It is important to prevent gum deposits
from forming in fuel system parts such as the
carburetor, fuel hose or tank during storage. Alcohol-
blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol)
can attract moisture, which leads to separation and
formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can
damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage.
To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage of 30 days or longer.
See "Storage" on page 13. NEVER use engine or
carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank as
permanent damage may occur.
NOTE: You may not need to use all the supplied oil.
6.
Install oil dipstick, hand tighten securely.
NOTE: Check oil often during engine break-in.
