Generator break in procedure
Does anyone know if there is a correct procedure to break in a new generator? ie let it idle for so long then put it under a load for so long ?

As mentioned change the oil and I would add the filter too! This helps with the longevity of any motor.
Quite a few small engines do not have an oil filter. Obviously it's hard to change one that doesn't exist.
If you have an oil filter, then changing it as a part of the oil change process generally makes sense to me. You also likely don't need to change the oil as frequently as you would otherwise (though initial break-in is somewhat of a special case).
