oil level. If necessary add engine oil. Check engine
manufacturer's owner's manual for oil recommenda-
tions.
Check /Fill Transmission Oil
Oil Type: 20W-50 conventional detergent motor oil.
1. Check the oil level when the unit is cold. The inspec-
tion port is located on the inside of the right tank
cover. The oil level should be within 1/2" (1,3 cm)
of the horizontal level mark (A, Figure 6). If the oil is
below this level, proceed to step 2.
2. Before removing the reservoir cap, make sure the
area around the reservoir cap and fill neck of the res-
ervoir is free of dust, dirt, or other debris. Loosen the
locking capscrew (E, Figure 5) securing the locking
tab (D), slide the lock tab back, and remove the cap
(B).
3. Add oil up to the full mark (A, Figure 6).
4. Reinstall the reservoir cap, move the locking tab
between two notches, and tighten the locking cap-
screw. The locking tab is installed as a reminder to
the customer to not put fuel in this reservoir.
