Filling the Engine with Oil
No Parts Required
Procedure
Important: Your machine does not come with oil in
the engine. Before starting the engine, fill the engine
with oil.
Max. fill: 20 oz. (0.59 l), type: SAE 30 or SAE 10W-30
detergent oil with an API service classification of SF, SG, SH,
SJ, SL, or higher.
Note: When the crankcase is empty, pour about 3/4 of
the crankcase capacity of oil in the crankcase, then do the
following:
1. Move the machine to a level surface.
2. Remove the dipstick (Figure 6).

1. The oil level is at its
maximum.
2. The oil level is too
high—remove oil from
the crankcase.
3. Wipe the dipstick clean with a clean cloth.
4. Insert the dipstick into the oil-fill tube but do not
screw it in, then remove the dipstick.
5. Read the oil level on the dipstick (Figure 6).
•
If the oil level on the dipstick is too low, slowly
pour a small amount of oil into the oil-fill tube,
wait 3 minutes, and repeat steps 3 through 5 until
the oil level on the dipstick is at the correct level.
•
If the oil level on the dipstick is too high,
drain the excess oil until the oil level on
the dipstick is at the correct level. Refer to
Changing the Engine Oil (page 15).
Important: If the oil level in the crankcase is too
low or too high and you run the engine, you may
damage the engine.
6. Install the dipstick securely.
Important: Change the engine oil after the first 5
operating hours ; change it yearly thereafter. Refer
to Changing the Engine Oil (page 15).
