FUEL. USE CLEAN OIL AND FUEL AND STORE IN AP PROVED,
CLEAN, COVERED CONTAINERS. USE CLEAN FILL FUNNELS.
CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL (See Fig. 11)
• The engine in your unit has been shipped, from the
factory, already filled with SAE 30 summer weight oil.
• With engine level, clean area around oil filler plug and
remove plug.
• Engine oil should be to point of overflowing when en-
gine is level. For ap proxi mate capacity see "PROD UCT
SPEC I FI CA TIONS" in this manual. All oil must meet
A.P .I. Service Classification SF-SJ.
• For cold weather operation you should change oil for
easier starting (See "OIL VISCOSITY CHART" in the
DEPTH
Maintenance sec tion of this manual).
• To change engine oil, see the Maintenance section of
this manual.
ADD GASOLINE
• Fill fuel tank to bottom of filler neck. Do not overfill.
Use fresh, clean, regular un lead ed gasoline with a
minimum of 87 octane. (Use of leaded gasoline will
increase carbon and lead oxide deposits and reduce
valve life). Do not mix oil with gasoline. Purchase fuel
in quan ti ties that can be used within 30 days to assure
fuel freshness.
