Aggiunta di olio motore

Before starting the generator, ensure the engine oil is at the correct level. Remove the oil dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert without threading, and then remove to check the oil level. Add the recommended type and amount of engine oil (typically 10W-30) using a funnel until the oil level is between the 'Full' and 'Add' marks on the dipstick. Do not overfill.

Aggiungere benzina

Ensure the generator is on a level surface and the engine is off and cool. Remove the fuel cap and slowly add fresh, unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank. Do not overfill; leave space for fuel expansion. Replace the fuel cap securely. Refer to the fuel filter red line to avoid overfilling.
