How Often Should the Oil in a Gasoline Generator Be Changed?
1 Answers
Generally, the oil change interval is 250 hours or one month. When using Class 2 oil, the oil can be extended to 400 hours of operation before needing a change, but the oil filter (filter element) must be replaced. Here is some information about engine oil: 1. Introduction to Engine Oil: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, with the English name: Engine oil. It has a density of approximately 0.91×10 (kg/m³) and serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption for the engine. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of the car. 2. Composition of Engine Oil: Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of the lubricant, determining its basic properties, while additives compensate for and improve the deficiencies of the base oil, imparting certain new characteristics, making them an essential part of the lubricant.
