■Running the engine with insufficient oil can cause serious engine
damage.
■The Low Oil Alarm System will automatically stop the engine before
the oil level falls below a safe limit. However, to avoid the
inconvenience of an unexpected shutdown, it is still advisable to
visually inspect the oil level regularly.
3.2 Fuel
Fuel tank capacity- 3.1 gal (11.6 L)
Use unleaded 87 octane regular grade automotive gasoline.
If the fuel level is low, refill to the shoulder of the fuel strainer, see fig.4.
Never use an oil/gasoline mixture or dirty gasoline.
Avoid getting dirt, dust or water in the fuel tank.
After refueling, tighten the fuel filler cap securely.
■Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain
conditions.
■Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Keep all
smoking materials, sparks, and any other source of combustion away
from the generator during refueling.
■Do not overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel in the filler
neck). After refueling, make sure the fuel filler cap is closed properly
and securely.
■Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor
may ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before
starting the engine.
■Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing of vapor.
