If this generator is being used for the first time, the following few steps are required to prepare it for operation: 
 
Step 1 - Add Oil 
 
This generator requires engine oil to function. Engine oil is a major factor affecting engine performance and service life. When new from 
the package, this generator contains no oil in the engine crankcase. The correct quantity of oil is equal to the oil capacity of the engine crankcase 
and is 13.5 fluid oz (0.40 L) for this Model GEN1850 Portable Generator. Add the correct quantity of oil before operating this generator for the first 
time. When replenishing oil for subsequent use of this generator, always determine that this generator  
has the correct quantity of oil. 
 
Model GEN1850 Oil Capacity (fluid oz./L) 
13.5 / 0.4 
Model GEN1850 Oil Type Recommended 
SAE10W-30 
 
To add oil: 
1. Confirm that this generator is on a level surface. 
2. Open the Oil Access Panel as illustrated in Figure 1. 
3. Using a funnel, add high detergent motor oil to fill the engine crankcase to the correct quantity as stated above. SAE10W-30 oil is recommended. 
When the engine crankcase is full, the oil level should reach the lower lip of the oil filling opening as illustrated in Figure 2. 
4. Replace the oil filler/dipstick cap and close the oil access panel.
