3. Wait for the engine to stop and cool down completely before topping up the oil.
4. Before starting the engine, refit the oil filler cap.
5. It is prohibited to cover the generating set with a fine layer of oil for anti-rust protection.
Battery

- Request the user technical notes and LPG or NG safety data sheets from your gas supplier.
- For any operation on a gas installation, ask a recognised specialist to intervene.
- Gas supply procedures must be carried out in the open air (outside) in accordance with local regulations, in an area well away
from fires, people or animals.
