Service Code Detection System
The generator may have to run for long periods of time with
no operator present. For that reason, the system is equipped
with sensors that automatically shut down the generator
in the event of potentially damaging conditions, such as
low oil pressure, high temperature, over speed, and other
conditions. Refer to Service Code Detection System in the
operator's manual for more detailed information.
Final Installation Considerations
Engine Oil
NOTICE Any attempt to crank or start the engine before it
has been properly serviced with the recommended oil will
result in equipment failure.
• Refer to Maintenance in the operator's manual for oil
fill information.
• Damage to equipment resulting from failure to follow this
instruction will void engine and generator warranty.
The engine is shipped from the factory pre-run and filled
with synthetic oil (API SJ/CF 5W-30). This allows for system
operation in a wide range of temperature and climate
conditions. Before starting the engine, check oil level and
ensure that engine is serviced as described in Maintenance
of the Operator's Manual.
The use of synthetic oil does not alter the required oil
change intervals described in the Operator's Manual.
For operation of temperatures below 30°F (-1°C), the use of
fully synthetic oil (minimum API SJ) of viscosity 5W30 is
required.

(MAX):
Install the battery as described in Servicing the Battery in the
Maintenance section of the Operator's Manual. Always make
sure the NEGATIVE cable is connected last.
WARNING Storage batteries give off explosive
hydrogen gas during recharging.
Slightest spark will ignite hydrogen
and cause explosion, resulting
in death, serious injury and/or
property damage.
Battery electrolyte fluid contains acid and is
extremely caustic.
Contact with battery contents could cause severe
chemical burns.
A battery presents a risk of electrical shock and high short
circuit current.
• DO NOT dispose of battery in a fire. Recycle battery.
• DO NOT allow any open flame, spark, heat, or lit cigarette
during and for several minutes after charging a battery.
• DO NOT open or mutilate the battery.
• Wear protective goggles, rubber apron, rubber boots and
rubber gloves.
• Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.
• Use tools having insulated handles.
