4.3 Lubrication System

See Section 4.2, Service Schedule, for oil change and

oil filter replacement intervals. See Section 1.5, Service

Views, for the oil drain, oil check, oil fill, and oil filter

locations.

4.3.1

Low Oil Pressure Shutdown

The low oil pressure (LOP) shutdown feature protects

the engine against internal damage if the oil pressure

drops below a minimum pressure because of oil pump

failure or other malfunction.

Note: The LOP shutdown feature does not protect

against damage caused by operating when the

oil level is low; it is not a low oil level shutdown.

Check the oil level regularly, and add oil as

needed.

4.3.2

Oil Check

The generator set is shipped with oil. Before operating

the generator set, check the engine oil in the crankcase.

See Figure 4-1 for the dipstick location.

Maintain the oil level at or near, not over, the full mark on

the dipstick. Add 5W-30 synthetic oil when the oil level is

low. See Section 4.3.3, Engine Oil Recommendation.

Check the oil level before each use. For extended

operation, check the oil level every 8 hours. Do not

check the oil level when the generator set is running.

Shut down the generator set and wait several minutes

before checking the oil.

4.3.3

Engine Oil Recommendation

Use 5W-30 API (American Petroleum Institute) Service

Class SG, SH, or SJ synthetic oil. Synthetic oil oxidizes

and thickens less than other oils and leaves the engine

intake valves and pistons cleaner.

4.3.4
