Servicing Your Engine
THE IMPORTANCE OF MAINTENANCE
Protect yourself and your equipment by properly maintaining your engine. Proper engine
maintenance is necessary for safe, economical, and trouble-free operation.
WARNING
Improperly maintaining this engine, or failure to correct a problem
before operation, can cause a malfunction in which you can be
seriously hurt or killed.
Always follow the inspection and maintenance recommendations
and schedules in this owner's manual.
To assist you in properly caring for your engine, the following pages include routine
inspection procedures and simple maintenance procedures using basic hand tools.
Service tasks that are more difficult or which require special tools should be handled by
professionals and are normally performed by a service technician or qualified mechanic.
If you operate your engine under stressful conditions such as sustained high-load or
high-temperature operation, or use your engine in unusually wet or dusty conditions,
servicing should be more frequent. Consult your service technician for recommendations
applicable to your individual needs and use.
NOTE
See Maintenance Schedule for normal and extreme operation
condition differences.
