I run my generator for anout 10 minutes , it shuts down and light flashes. I have to reset the the toggle switch. I can find no information on this model. Could this be to excessive heat or low oil? It is a power tech. 8000. No info on how to check the oil or coolant levels.

Low oil and the switch wouldn't let it start. Heat is more likely.

Did it just start doing it or was it after you changed the oil?

Is your gas tank over 1/3 full? The generator will shut down to conserve enough fuel to drive to a gas station.
