Lubrication Oil

Fill the engine crankcase with lubricating oil through the filler hole, but do not overfill. Make sure the welder/generator is level.With the dipstick inserted all the way, but without being screw into the filler hole, verify that the oil level is maintained between the two notches (Figure 7) on the dipstick. See Table 4 for proper selection of engine oil.

Fuel

Fill the fuel tank with clean and fresh unleaded gasoline. DO NOT fill the tank beyond capacity.

Pay attention to the fuel tank capacity when replenishing fuel. Refer to the fuel tank capacity listed on page 11, Specification Table 1.

The fuel tank cap must be closed tightly after filling. Handle fuel in a safety container. If the container does not have a spout, use a funnel.

CAUTION :

Never fill the fuel tank while the engine is running or in the dark. Gasoline spillage on a hot engine can cause a fire or explosion. If gasoline spillage occurs, wipe up the spilled gasoline completely to prevent fire hazards.

Air Cleaner

Periodic cleaning/replacement is necessary. Inspect it in accordance with the engine manual.

Battery

This unit is of negative ground. DO NOT connect in reverse. Always maintain battery fluid level between the specified marks. Battery life will be shortened, if the fluid level is not properly maintained. Add only distilled water when replenishment is necessary.

The battery is sufficiently charged if the specific gravity of the battery fluid is 1.28 (at 68° F). If the specific gravity should fall to 1.245 or lower, it indicates that the battery is dead and needs to be recharged or replaced.
