USE

BEFORE STARTING THE GENERATOR

Ground terminal

The generator ground terminal is
connected to the frame of the generator,
the metal non-current-carrying parts of
the generator, and the ground terminals
of each receptacle. Before using the
ground terminal, consult a qualified
electrician, electrical inspector or local
agency having jurisdiction for local
codes or ordinances that apply to the
intended use of the generator.
Fill and check oil level (quantity is 600 ml)
Always check the oil level (with machine in a
level position) before starting and if the engine
unexpectedly stops (fig. 2).
For general use you can use an "all
temperature" oil 10W-30
≤ 0ºC SAE#10
0ºC - 25 ºC SAE#20
25ºC - 35 ºC SAE#30
≥ 35ºC SAE#40
