    Energy-saving switch When the energy-saving switch is in “ON” position, the energy saving equipment controls the engine rotate speed according to the connected loads. There will be good fuel consumption and low noise. When the energy-saving switch is in“OFF”position, the engine will always run in rated rotate speed no matter it is connected to the loads or not (See the parameter table for details).
  • Page 11 To add oil, follow these steps: 1. Place the engine on a level surface with engine stopped. 2. Remove the dipstick (See fig.1) and wipe it clean. 3. Reinstall dipstick into tube, rest on oil fill neck, DO NOT thread cap into tube.
