93001i-EU - 3000W PORTAbLE INvERTER GENERATOR

When using the dipstick to check oil level, DO NOT screw in
the dipstick while checking, simply rest it against the top of
the port.
As a general rule oil is full when it can be seen visually on the
middle to upper threads of the port. Do Not angle or tip the
generator when adding oil.

Check oil level often during the break-in period. Refer to the
Maintenance section for recommended service intervals.
CAUTION

This engine is equipped with a low oil shut-off and will stop
when the oil level in the crankcase falls below the threshold
level.

The first 5 hours of run time are 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 slightly and help seat piston rings.
After the 5 hour break-in period, change the oil.

Synthetic oil may be used after the 5 hour initial break-in
period. Using synthetic oil does not decrease the recommended
oil change interval. Full synthetic 5W-30 oil will aid in starting
in cold ambient < 41º F (5º C) temperatures.
Add Fuel

Petrol vapors are highly flammable and extremely explosive.
DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes. Fire or explosion can cause
severe burns or death.
Only fill or drain fuel outdoors in a well-ventilated area. DO
NOT pump petrol directly into the generator. Use an approved
container to transfer the fuel to the generator.
Never use a petrol container, fuel tank, or any other fuel item
that is broken, cut, torn or damaged.
DO NOT overfill the fuel tank. Always keep fuel away from
sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat and other sources of
ignition.

DANGER
Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded petrol with a minimum octane
rating of 85 and an ethanol content of 10% or less by volume.
b c
DO NOT mix oil with petrol.
1. Remove the petrol cap.
2. Slowly add petrol to the tank. DO NOT OVERFILL. Petrol can
expand after filling. A minimum of ¼ in. (6.4 mm) of space
left in the tank is required for petrol expansion, although more
than ¼ in. (6.4 mm) is recommended. Petrol can be forced
out of the tank as a result of expansion if overfilled, and can
affect the stable running condition of the generator.
3. The approximate fuel level is shown on the fuel gauge on top
of the fuel tank.
4. Screw on the fuel cap and wipe away any spilled fuel.
Use unleaded petrol with a minimum octane rating of 85 and
an ethanol content of 10% or less by volume.
DO NOT light cigarettes or smoke when filling the tank.
DO NOT mix oil and petrol, this is a four stroke engine with
separate oil and petrol.
DO NOT overfill the tank. Fill tank to approximately ¼ in.
(6.4 mm) below the top of the tank to allow for petrol
expansion.
DO NOT pump petrol directly into the generator at the pump.
Use an approved fuel container to transfer the petrol to the
generator.
DO NOT fill fuel tank indoors, in garages, in sheds or in any out
building.
DO NOT fill tank when the engine is running or hot, always
allow engine to cool minimum 30 mins before refueling.
