NOTICE
Use of 2-stroke/cycle oil or other unapproved oil types
can cause severe engine damage that is not covered
under warranty.
The included and recommended oil type for typical use
is 10W-30 engine oil. If running the generator in extreme
temperatures, refer to the following chart.
1. On a level surface, remove the oil access cover and oil
dipstick.
2. Using the supplied funnel and oil, add oil into the engine.
Note: As residual oil from the factory may remain in the
engine, add the oil incrementally near the end of the
bottle to prevent overfilling the engine. See Engine
Oil Level Check in the Maintenance section.
3. Check the oil level to be sure it is in the correct operating
range. See Engine Oil Level Check in the Maintenance
section.
