Lubrication Oil
Fill the engine crankcase with lubricating oil through the filler
hole, but do not overfill. Make sure the generator is level.
With the dipstick inserted all the way, but without being
screwED into the filler hole, verify that the oil level is
maintained between the two notches (Figure 16) on the
dipstick. See Table 3 for proper selection of engine oil.
Fuel
Fill the fuel tank with clean and fresh diesel fuel. Do not fill
the tank beyond capacity.
Pay attention to the fuel tank capacity when replenishing
fuel. Refer to the fuel tank capacity listed on page 11
Specification Table 1.
The fuel tank cap must be closed tightly after fillin
g.
Handle
fuel in a safety container. If the container does not have a
spout, use a funnel.
Coolant
Use only potable tap water. If hard water or water with many
impurities is used, the inside of the engine and radiator may
become coated with deposits and cooling efficiency will be
reduced.
An anticorrosion additive added to the water will help prevent
deposits and corrosion in the cooling system. See the engine
manual for further details.

CAUTION
Never fill the fuel tank while the engine is running or in
the dark. Diesel fuel spillage on a hot engine can cause
a fire or explosion. If diesel fuel spillage occurs, wipe
up the spilled diesel fuel completely to prevent fire
hazards.
