Generators; How Level is Level?

If you can comfortably stand on the ground, it's level enough for the generator.

Thanks for that, Bill, but being a backpacker, hiker, (not to mention rock climber), I'm pretty comfortable on some quite un-level ground. Could you be more specific? I might notice it if I had to lock one knee and unlock the other to stay upright, but that would probably put a generator sitting on that ground several degrees out of level.

I'm guessing this is an issue of when the lubricating system can't cycle, or the carburetor can't dispense fuel efficiently that would limit it's off-level capabilities. It needs someone with knowledge of the internal design to really know the limits.
