PREPARING THE GENERATOR FOR USE
Using the Generator for the First Time
If you are using the generator for the first time, there are a few steps you must take to prepare
it for operation.
Step 1- Add oil
The generator requires engine oil to operate properly. The generator, when new from the
package, contains no oil in the crankcase. You must add the proper amount of oil before
operating the generator for the first time. This amount, which is equal to the oil capacity of the
engine crankcase, can be found on the chart in figure 1. When filling the engine with oil in the
future, please refer to this chart.
Model number PD6500E
Engine oil capacity
37 fluid oz.
Figure 1- Generator Oil Capacity
CAUTION:
· Do not apply engine oil with additives or
2-stroke gasoline engine oil, as they haven’t
enough lubrication, which may shorten the
engine’s service life.
·Engine oil recommended: SAE 10W-30.
As viscosity varies with regions and
temperatures, so the lubricant has to be
selected in accordance with our
recommendation.
To add oil, follow these steps:
l. Make sure the generator is on a level surface.
2. Unscrew the oil filler/dipstick cap from the engine as shown in figure 2.
