PREPARING THE GENERATOR FOR USE (Continued)
Figure 2 – Unscrewing the Oil Cap Figure 3 – Adding Oil
To add Oil, follow these steps:
1. Make sure the generator is on a level surface.
2. Unscrew the oil filler/dipstick cap from the engine as shown in figure 2.
3. Using a funnel, add the appropriate amount of oil, as found in figure 1, into
the crankcase. You will know the crankcase is full when the oil level has
reached the lower lip of the opening you have just poured the oil into. (see
figure 3.)
4. Replace oil filler cap.
Step 2 - Add Gasoline
 WARNING: Gasoline and gas fumes are highly flammable.
 Do not fill tank near an open flame.
 Do not overfill. Always check for fuel spills.
To ensure that the generator runs smoothly use only FRESH, UNLEADED GAS
WITH AN OCTANE RATING OF 87 OR HIGHER.
To add gasoline:
1. Make sure the generator is on a level surface.
2. Unscrew gas cap and set aside (NOTE: the gas cap may be tight and hard to
unscrew).
3. Slowly add unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank. Be careful not to overfill.
Please refer to the chart in figure 4 to find the gas capacity of your generator
model. The fuel gauge on the top of the gas tank indicates how much gasoline
is in the generator gas tank.
NOTE: Gas can expand. Do not fill the gas tank to the very top.
4. Replace fuel cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline with a dry cloth.
