When is the first oil change done on a MEP 806B?

The first oil change on a MEP 806B is performed at 100 operating hours. This interval is established as a standard practice to ensure that the engine operates efficiently and to prolong its life. During the initial hours of operation, various contaminants such as metal particles, small debris, and combustion by-products can accumulate in the oil, which can impact engine performance if not addressed. Changing the oil at this point allows for the removal of these contaminants, helping to maintain optimal lubrication and cooling of engine components. Regular maintenance, including timely oil changes, is crucial to avoid potential overheating and wear, ensuring the generator operates smoothly for future use.
