Service Code Detection System
The generator may have to run for long periods of time
with no operator present. For that reason, the system is
equipped with sensors that automatically shut down the
generator in the event of potentially damaging conditions,
such as low oil pressure, high temperature, over speed,
and other conditions.
Engine Oil
NOTICE Any attempt to crank or start the engine before it has
been properly serviced with the recommended oil will result in
possible equipment failure and service codes.
• Refer to Maintenance in the operator’s manual for oil fill
information.
• Damage to equipment resulting from failure to follow this
instruction will void engine and generator warranty.
Final Installation Considerations
Battery
The installer must supply and install a rechargeable 12 volt
starting battery. The starting battery MUST conform to the
specifications shown in this chart.

Install the battery as described in Servicing the Battery in
the Maintenance section of the operator’s manual. Always
make sure the NEGATIVE cable is connected last and that
the red POSITIVE terminal insulator is fully in place.
Refer to Service Code Detection System in the operator’s
manual for more detailed information.
This engine is shipped from the factory pre-run and filled
with full synthetic oil (API SJ/CF 5W-30). This allows for
system operation in a wide range of temperature and climate
conditions. Before starting the engine, check oil level as
described in Maintenance of the Operator’s Manual.
The use of synthetic oil does not alter the required oil change
intervals described in the Operator’s Manual.
For operation of temperatures below 30°F (-1°C), the use of fully
synthetic oil (minimum API SJ) of viscosity 5W30 is required.
Use the supplied tie-down strap (A) to secure the battery
to the unit. Each end of the strap should be attached to
the existing tabs in the base of the unit.
A
WARNING Storage batteries give off explosive hydrogen
gas during recharging.
Slightest spark will ignite hydrogen
and cause explosion, resulting in death or serious injury.
Battery electrolyte fluid contains acid and is extremely caustic.
Contact with battery contents could cause severe chemical
burns.
A battery's high short circuit current could result in serious
injury.
• DO NOT dispose of battery in a fire. Recycle battery.
• DO NOT allow any open flame, spark, heat, or lit cigarette
during and for several minutes after charging a battery.
• DO NOT open or mutilate the battery.
• Wear protective goggles, rubber apron, rubber boots and
rubber gloves.
• Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.
• Use tools having insulated handles.
