We also didn't get a paper version of the owner's manual for our generator. Got a nicely packaged CD instead. . . my laptop doesn't have a CD player! Was able to download a .pdf version from the Onan website.John

I took a picture of the label to get the correct model number. Then went to Onan web site and drilled down to the manuals download section. Got a pdf version. If you haven't changed the oil on an Onan generator before you will find the oil drain valve is quite a bit different from most oil drain valves. I didn't realize this and ended up dumping a lot of oil, took me several days to get cleaned up properly. If I would have just found that valve it would have gone a lot better.
On my Momentum there is a generator page on the one control unit, I was able to "reset" the oil change alert there.
