NOTICE
Fuel can damage paint and some types of plastic. Be careful not to

not covered under your Distributor's Limited Warranty.
Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or oil/gasoline mixture.
Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
Adding Fuel

cap.
2. Add fuel to the bottom of
the fuel level limit in the
neck of the fuel tank. Do
not overfill. Wipe up
spilled fuel before starting
the engine.
3. Install the fuel tank cap
and tighten it until it clicks.
4. Move at least 10 feet
(3 meters) away from the
fueling source and site
before starting the engine.

ENGINE OIL

Oil is a major factor affecting performance and service life. Use
4-stroke automotive detergent oil. Always change the oil in
accordance with the maintenance schedule (page 8).

Recommended Oil

Use 4-stroke motor oil that meets or
exceeds the requirements for API
service category SJ or later. Always
check the API service label on the oil
container to be sure it includes the
letters SJ or later.
SAE 10W-30 is recommended for
general use. Other viscosities shown in the chart may be used when
the average temperature in your area is within the indicated range.
Oil Level Check
1. Check the oil with the engine stopped and level.
2. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe it clean.
OIL FILLER CAP/DIPSTICK
3. Insert the oil filler cap/dipstick into the oil filler neck as shown, but
do not screw it in, then remove it to check the oil level.
4. If the oil level is near or below the lower limit mark on the dipstick,
remove the oil filler cap/dipstick, and fill with the recommended oil
to the upper limit mark. Do not overfill.
5. Reinstall the oil filler cap/dipstick.

Oil Change
Drain the engine oil when the engine is warm. Warm oil drains quickly
and completely.
OIL FILLER NECK
1. Turn the fuel valve to the OFF position to reduce the possibility of
fuel leakage.
2. Place a suitable container next to the engine to catch the used oil.
3. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and drain the oil into the container
by tipping the engine toward the oil filler neck.
Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible
with the environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed
container to your local recycling center or service station for
reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash, pour it on the ground, or
pour it down a drain.
4. With the engine in a level position, fill to the upper limit mark on the
dipstick with the recommended oil.
NOTICE
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage.
5. Reinstall the oil filler cap/dipstick securely.

AIR CLEANER

A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor and cause poor
engine performance. Inspect the filter each time the engine is
100°F
operated. You will need to clean the filter more frequently if you
operate the engine in very dusty areas.
NOTICE
Operating the engine without a filter, or with damaged filter, will allow
dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear. This type of
damage is not covered under your Distributor's Limited Warranty.
