User Notes
◆ Engine Oil Recommendations
The unit has been filled with “break in” engine oil
at the factory. Use a high-quality detergent oil classified “For Service CC, SD, SE or SF.” Detergent oils keep
the engine cleaner and reduce carbon deposits. Use oil
having the following SAE viscosity rating, based on the
ambient temperature range anticipated before the next
oil change:
TemperatureOil Grade (Recommended)
Above 75º F (24º C)SAE 30W
40º to 75º F (4.4º to 24º C)SAE 20W or 15W-40
10º to 40º F (-12º to 4.4º C)SAE 10W or 15W-40
Below 10º F (-12º C)SAE 5W-30 (Synthetic) or 5W-20
◆Coolant
Use a mixture of half low silicate, ethylene glycol base
antifreeze and half soft water. Use only soft water and
only low silicate antifreeze. If desired, you may add a
high quality rust inhibitor to the recommended coolant
mixture. When adding coolant, always add the recommended 50-50 mixture.
Do not remove the radiator pressure cap while
the engine is hot or serious burns from boiling
*
liquid or steam could result.
Ethylene glycol base antifreeze is poisonous.
Do not use your mouth to siphon coolant from
*
the radiator, recovery bottle or any container.
Wash your hands thoroughly after handling.
Never store used antifreeze in an open container
because animals are attracted to the smell and
taste of antifreeze even though it is poisonous to
them.
Do not use any chromate base rust inhibitor with
*
ethylene glycol base antifreeze, or chromium
hydroxide (“green slime”) will form and cause
overheating. Engines that have been operated
with a chromate base rust inhibitor must be
chemically cleaned before adding ethylene glycol
base antifreeze. Using any high silicate antifreeze boosters or additives also will cause overheating. We also recommend that you DO NOT
use any soluble oil inhibitor for this equipment.

3.0L GAS ENGINE SERVICE RECOMMENDATIONS
8 kW - 35 kW Small Standby Generator Sets
Following is a recommended maintenance schedule for Generac small standby and residential generator sets
from 8 kW to 35 kW in size, and applies to both diesel engine and gas engine driven units. The established
intervals in the schedule are the maximum recommended when the unit is used in an average service application. They will need to be decreased (performed more frequently) if the unit is used in a severe application.
Use the unit hour meter or calendar time, whichever occurs first, from the previous maintenance interval to
determine the next required maintenance interval.
Service Maintenance Interval Information:
The various service maintenance intervals are designated by interval numbers as follows:
1 An early inspection of the generator set to insure it is ready to operate when required and to identify any
potential problem areas.
Performed monthly or following each 10 hours of operation of the unit and requires approximately .5
man-hours per unit to complete.
This inspection may be performed by the end user providing the following safety steps are taken to pre-
vent the engine from starting automatically without warning:
To prevent injury, perform the following steps in the order indicated before starting any maintenance:
• Disable the generator set from starting and/or connecting to the load by setting the control panel
Auto-Off-Manual switch to the “OFF” position.
• Remove the control panel fuse.
• Turn off the battery charger.
• Remove the negative battery cable.
The battery charger must be turned off BEFORE removing the battery cable to prevent an over current con-
dition from burning out sensitive control panel components and circuits.
*
Following all maintenance, reverse these steps to insure the unit is returned to standby setup for normal
operation when required.
2 A break-in service inspection of the generator set to insure it is ready to operate and carry the load when
required, and to identify any potential problem areas.
Performed ONLY ONCE following the first three months or the first 30 hours of operation after purchase
of the unit and requires approximately 2.5 man-hours per unit to complete.
This inspection contains some maintenance tasks which require special tools, equipment, and/or knowl-
edge to accomplish and should be performed only by an authorized Generac Service Dealer.
3 An operational inspection of the generator set to insure it is ready to operate and carry the load when
required, and to identify any potential problem areas.
Performed semi-annually or following each 50 hours of operation of the unit and requires approximately
1.5 man-hours per unit to complete.
This inspection contains some maintenance tasks which require special tools, equipment, and/or knowl-
edge to accomplish and should be performed only by an authorized Generac Service Dealer.
4 A mid-level inspection of the generator set to insure it is ready to operate and carry the load when required,
and to identify any potential problem areas.
Performed annually or following each 100 hours of operation of the unit and requires approximately 4.0
man-hours per unit to complete.
This inspection contains some maintenance tasks which require special tools, equipment, and/or knowl-
edge to accomplish and should be performed only by an authorized Generac Service Dealer.
