Hurricane Ike knocked out power at home. I got a generator but doesn’t know what engine oil to use?

I got a Powertrain 4500watt portable generator. The manual only says engine oil… doesn’t say what kind? Can somebody help ASAP? Thanks! I googled Powertrain, no luck… even called the store. Store people didn’t know!
P.S. I have a 10W30 engine oil for my car… can I use that?
