Before Starting

Filling the Crankcase with Oil

The crankcase can hold 22 ounces (0.65 liters) of oil. Use
only high-quality, SAE 30 weight detergent oil that has the
American Petroleum Institute (API) service classification
SF, SG, SH, or SJ.
Before each use, ensure that the oil level is between the
Add and the Full marks on the dipstick (Fig. 8).

1. Dipstick
To add oil:
1. Move the lawn mower to a level surface.
2. Clean around the dipstick (Fig. 8).
3. Remove the dipstick by rotating the cap
counterclockwise and pulling it out.
4. Wipe the dipstick clean with a clean cloth.
5. Fully insert the dipstick into the filler neck, then remove
it.
Note: To ensure an accurate oil level reading, you must
fully install the dipstick.
6. Read the oil level on the dipstick (Fig. 8).
7. If the oil level reading is below the Add mark on the
dipstick, slowly pour only enough oil into the filler hole
to raise the oil level to the Full mark on the dipstick.
Important
Do not overfill the crankcase with oil and
run the engine; engine damage will result. Drain the excess
oil until the oil level on the dipstick reads Full.
8. Insert the dipstick into the filler neck and rotate the cap
clockwise until it is tight.
Filling the Fuel Tank with
Gasoline
For best results, use clean, fresh, lead-free gasoline with an
octane rating of 87 or higher. To ensure freshness, purchase
only the quantity of gasoline that you expect to use in 30
days. Unleaded gasoline burns cleaner, extends engine life,
and promotes good starting. You may use leaded gasoline if
unleaded gasoline is not available.
Important
Do not add oil to the gasoline.
Important
Do not use methanol, gasoline containing
methanol, gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol,
premium gasoline, or white gas. Using these fuels can
damage the engine's fuel system.
