* Only when it is cold (check it before starting it for the first time).
* Make sure the generator is level
(no more then 15 degrees of an angle).
* Remove the dipstick and check oil level
(oil should be right to the top of the thread).
* If it is low top up the oil (to the top of the thread).
* Try and always use the same brand & type of oil
(check with the manufacture's manual for what type)

STARTING GENERATOR

* Then turn on the fuel.
* Turn the on/off switch to on...if it's a key start model turn the key to start the generator...if it's a pull start...after
turning the switch to on pull start the generator (note: if your unit has a manual choke switch the choke on before
trying to start the generator).
* Once the generator is running turn the choke off
