4. PRE-OPERATION CHECK

To ensure proper engine operation, the spark plug must be properly gapped and
free of deposits. WARNING
1.Remove the spark plug maintenance cover.
Be sure to check the generator on a level surface with the engine stopped.

Spark Plug Maintenance Cover 1. Check the engine oil level.

WARNING
Using nondetergent oil or 2-stroke engine oil could shorten the engine's service
life.

Oil is a major factor affecting performance and service life. Use 4-stroke automotive detergent
oil.
Select the appropriate viscosity of oil according to the ambient temperature. Prefer
to "GB/T 11122-1997 Diesel", as follows:

Ambient temperature Engine oil type

-25 to -30 10W-30
2.Remove the spark plug cap. -15 to -40 15W-40
3.Clean any dirt from around the spark plug base.
4.Use the wrench to remove the spark plug. Caution!
Store and use the oil carefully in order to prevent dust or dirty flowing into the
Handle Bar oil. If oil is overfilled, wipe it up at once.
Never mix different kinds of oil.

Loosen the cover screw and remove the left side maintenance cover. Remove the oil
filler cap, and wipe the dipstick with a clean rag. Check the oil level by inserting the
dipstick in the filler hole without screwing it in.
If the oil level is below the end of the dipstick, refill the recommended oil up to the top of
the oil filler neck.

2.AIR CLEANER SERVICE

A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor. To prevent carburetor
malfunction, service the air cleaner regularly. Service more frequently when operat-

Even with suitable carburetor jetting, engine horsepower will decrease approximately

horsepower will be greater than this if no carburetor modification is made.
