What happens here

It is recommended to change the generator's engine oil at least once a year, even if the unit hasn't been used extensively. Engine oil degrades and breaks down over time, losing its lubricating properties. Regular oil changes help maintain engine health and prolong the life of the generator.

Goal: Conduct an annual oil change for your generator, regardless of how frequently it was used, as oil degrades over time.
