CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
The generator is transported free of motor oil. Do not start the engine until it is
filled with sufficient amount of motor oil.
1. Unscrew the oil dipstick and wipe
it out with a clean cloth.
2. Insert the dipstick without
screwing it in.
3. Check the oil level by a mark on
the oil dipstick.
4. Add oil if its level is below the
mark on the oil dipstick.
5. Screw on the dipstick.
Recommended motor oil:
SAE 10W30, SAE 10W40.
Recommended motor oil grade:
API Service SG type or higher.
Motor oil quantity:
see specifications table.

The generator output varies depending on changes in temperature, altitude
(lower air pressure at a higher altitude) and increased humidity. In addition, the
load should be reduced when the generator is used in a confined space, since its
cooling performance decreases.
17. GETTING STARTED
Before starting the engine,
make sure that the power rating of power
consumers matches that of the generator. Do not exceed the nominal power of
the generator.
Do not connect any devices before you start the engine!
Do not tilt the generator while adding oil to the engine. This can lead to overfilling
and damage to the engine. The generator can only be used with nominal output
under standard atmospheric conditions.
In the power supply mode, the generator should operate no longer than
15 minutes in the range from nominal to maximum power.
Do not change the controller settings in terms of the amount of fuel or
speed governor (this adjustment was made at the factory). Otherwise,
this may result in changes in the engine operation or its failure.
