FAQs

How often should I change the oil?

Consult the owner's manual for specific oil change intervals, typically after the first few hours of use and then every 50-100 hours of operation, depending on usage.

What type of fuel should I use?

Use unleaded gasoline. Refer to the manual for specific octane requirements.

How do I store the generator?

Drain the fuel, change the oil, clean the air filter, and store it in a cool, dry place.

What safety precautions should I take?

Never operate the generator indoors or in enclosed spaces. Ensure adequate ventilation. Do not overload the generator. Ground the generator properly. Avoid touching the hot exhaust.

What is the generator's noise level?

The G6500W operates at a noise level of 66dB, thanks to its rubber engine mounts.

What kind of maintenance does the AVR need?

The Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) does not need regular maintenance. However, ensure the generator is properly maintained to avoid damaging the AVR.

Troubleshooting

Generator won't start

Check the circuit breakers and the outlet connections. Ensure the AVR is functioning correctly.
