How Often Should Diesel Generator Engine Oil Be Changed?

[VanNora]

For new engines, the first oil change should be performed after 50 hours of initial operation, and also after medium or major overhauls (another 50 hours). The oil change interval is generally synchronized with the replacement of the oil filter (filter element). Here is extended information about diesel generator maintenance: Daily inspection tasks: Mainly include checking fuel tank levels and oil reserves to ensure sufficient quantities, with timely refueling as needed. Regular timely inspections: Ensure the oil level reaches the marked line on the dipstick, and replenish according to specified quantities promptly. Immediate checks: Promptly inspect water, oil, and air conditions. Address any oil or water leaks at pipe joint sealing surfaces immediately. Eliminate exhaust pipe and cylinder head gasket leaks, as well as turbocharger air leaks, tackling issues at their root cause.
