CONTROL & FEATURES
Oil Alert
Indicator
The Oil Alert
system is designed to prevent engine damage caused by an insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. Before the oil level in the crankcase can fall below a safe limit, the Oil Alert
indicator comes on and the Oil Alert
system automatically will stop the engine (the engine switch will remain in the ON position).
If the engine stops or the Oil Alert
indicator comes on when you pull the starter grip, check the engine oil level (see page 35 ) before troubleshooting in other areas.

INDICATOR
Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge is a mechanical device that measures the fuel level in the tank. The red indicator in the window will reference the level in relation to full or empty. To provide increased operating time, start with a full tank before beginning operation. Check the fuel level with the generator on a level surface. Always refuel with the engine OFF and cool.
