NOTICE!
Do not tilt the generator when adding engine oil. This could result in
overfilling and damage to the engine.
NOTE
Keep the engine oil level between the lower “L“ and upper marker “H“
on the oil level indicator. Too much or too little oil will shorten the service
life of the engine.
NOTE
Improper disposal of engine oil can be harmful to the environment. The
used oil should be put in a sealed container, and take it to a recycling sta-
tion.
WARNING! FIRE AND /OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
• Using gasoline or flammable solvent to clean the air cleaner can
cause a fire or explosion.
• Use only a non-flammable solvent or soapy water to clean parts.
NOTICE! MATERIAL DAMAGE
Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged air filter,
will allow dirt to enter the engine. This leads to rapid engine wear.
This type of damage is not covered by Dometic.
