HOW TO CHECK OIL
1. Level the engine or the equipment the engine is mounted on.
2. Clean the oil fill area of any dirt and debris to prevent contamination that can
damage the engine.
3. The engine has a dipstick that is either part of the oil fill plug (O) or a separate
component (see Parts Identification).
a. Remove the dipstick (O) and wipe with a clean cloth.
b. Reinsert the dipstick into the filler neck until it rests on the opening's rim.
Do not screw the oil fill plug back into the opening.
c. Remove the dipstick and check that the oil is between the Full and Fill
marks. Add or drain oil based on the measurement.
d. Reinsert the dipstick and either press firmly to hold in place or screw the
oil fill cap hand tight
HOW TO ADD OIL
IMPORTANT! Read the Engine Oil section before adding oil to ensure that it is
suitable for the engine.
1. Remove the oil filler cap (O) and place to one side.
2. Place a funnel into the oil fill neck. The funnel opening should be wide enough
to prevent the oil from collecting in the funnel's cone.
