Immediately, add distilled water
until the battery's fluid level comes
somewhere between the UPPER and
LOWER levels.
A Keep all sparks and flames away
from the battery and fuel tank. A
battery, especially when charging,
will give off hydrogen and oxygen
gases which can explode and cause
serious personal injury.
1. Remove the vent plugs.
2. Fill cells up to the upper level with electrolyte.
[Specific gravity of sulfuric acid 1.270 to 1.290 (at
20°C = 68°F)]
3. Allow the battery to sit for about one hour after filling.
4. If the electrolyte level is dropped, refill with
electrolyte up to the upper level.
5. Replace the vent plugs.
6. Charge the battery at the normal charging rate of 6.0
amperes.
7. Wash off any electrolyte which may have spilled.
(1) Vent plug opening
(2) Electrolyte level indication tube
(3) Indicated level
A The duration of dry charged efficiency, will decrease
in proportion to the period of time elapsed after
shipment and during storage. To obtain the longest
service life of the battery, it is necessary for the
battery to be charged for a sufficient period of time.
Continue to charge until all cells are gassing freely,
and the voltage and specific gravity reading in all
cells remain constant for 3 or more successive
readings taken at 30 minute intervals.
A When the battery has been charged fully, the
specific gravity of electrolyte should be 1.270 to
1.290 (at 20°C = 68°F).
(A) Upper level
(B) Lower level
PRE-OPERATION CHECK
C Engine oil
The generator has been shipped without engine oil.
Fill with oil to the correct level before attempting to
start the engine.
1. Place the machine on a level surface.
2. Remove the oil cap.
3. Add engine oil of grade CD or higher, up to the upper
mark on the oil level gauge.
A See "Engine Oil" in "PERIODIC SERVICE" section
for engine oil capacity and checking engine oil level.
C Coolant
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
A Place the machine on a level
surface.
A DO NOT remove the radiator cap
while coolant is hot. When cool,
rotate the radiator cap slowly to the
first stop to allow excess pressure
to escape.
completely.
1. Remove the radiator cap and fill with specified
coolant until the coolant level is just below the port.
2. Fill with coolant to the "FULL" mark on the reserve
tank.
3. Securely tighten radiator cap and reserve tank cap.
A See "Radiator" in "PERIODIC SERVICE" section for
changing coolant.
