ACCESS FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
A removable service door is provided for easy access to components which require routine maintenance.
An oil drain hole in the base pan is provided for convenient oil draining at scheduled intervals. The oil
level gauge (dip stick) and oil fill port are located just above the oil drain plug on the side of the engine
block. The air filter element is replaced by twisting the end of the air filter housing CCW and pulling
out. Other components such as Fuel Pump and Run Solenoid are easily accessed through the service
door. Electrical controls are conveniently located on the generator end cover.
