Engine Oil Recommendations
• Use API (American Petroleum Institute) performance Class SJ, SH or SG engine oil, which may be in combination with performance Class CH-4, CG-4 or CF-4 (for example: SJ/CH- 4).
• Look for the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) viscosity grade. Choose the viscosity grade appropriate for the ambient temperatures expected until the next scheduled oil change.
• Single-grade SAE 30 oil is preferable when temperatures are consistently above freezing. Multigrade oils are better when wide temperature variations are expected.

EXPECTED AMBIENT TEMPERATURES
SAE VISCOSITY GRADE
0 °C (32 °F) and higher
30 (OnaMax)
–12 to 38 °C (10 to 100 °F)
15W-40 (OnaMax)
–18 to 27 °C (0 to 80 °F)
10W-30 10W-40
–28 to 10 °C (–20 to 50 °F)
5W-30
This is what is in my generator manual . I dont know if your is the same model.
