I have a generac generator and the instructions say;
"The oil level should be at the dipstick "Full" level" Pretty simple EH!!!!
The dip stick does not have a "Full" marking!!!! There is a lower line followed by sort of hash marks or XXXXX above the lower line and a line above the hash marks. So which line is the "Full" marking?
No example in the booklet either!

Richard,
The top line is the full line. The XXXXX is the "acceptable" area. The bottom line is when you need to add however much the manual says to add when the oil level gets there. As always, 'Do not overfill'!
