For consumers · Power readiness

Support the generator you depend on.

MaxDx1 can be used in supported portable and standby generators to help improve lubricity, fuel-system cleanliness, and fuel performance.

Why it fits

Ready for the equipment behind your backup plan.

Portable and standby generators are valid applications. Because backup units may run infrequently, performance claims should be evaluated against actual operating hours and fuel records.

  • Supported for gasoline and diesel generators
  • Helps maintain cleaner fuel-system and combustion operation
  • Benefits are easiest to measure when runtime and fuel use are recorded
Home & Standby Generators

What MaxDx1 supports

Performance benefits, stated responsibly.

Results vary by engine, fuel, duty cycle, baseline condition, dose, and test method.

Readiness

Support fuel-system cleanliness and lubrication in generator applications.

Fuel performance

Help improve combustion and fuel economy when sufficient runtime exists to measure it.

Accurate dosing

Base treatment on the actual tank volume.

Realistic evaluation

Low-hour backup equipment may require a longer period to demonstrate savings.

Practical guidance

Use the correct dose. Measure the real result.

Measure MaxDx1 against the actual fuel or oil volume. Do not estimate from container size when the tank or crankcase is only partly filled.

First tank only2 oz / 10 gal

Initial fuel treatment

Use two fluid ounces per 10 U.S. gallons of gasoline or diesel for the first tank only.

Every fill after1 oz / 10 gal

Normal fuel dose

After the first treatment, use one fluid ounce per 10 U.S. gallons at every fill.

Every oil change1 oz / quart

Engine-oil treatment

Use one fluid ounce per quart of engine oil at every oil change.

Use only in supported non-aviation applications. Results vary by engine, fuel, condition, duty cycle, dose, and test method.
