ENGINE OIL
Oil is a major factor affecting performance and service life.
Use 4-stroke automotive detergent oil.
Recommended Oil
Use 4-stroke motor oil that
meets or exceeds the
requirements for API service
category SJ or later (or
equivalent). Always check
the API service label on the
oil container to be sure it
includes the letters SJ or
later (or equivalent).
SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general use. Other viscosities shown in
the chart may be used when the average temperature in your area is
within the indicated range.
Oil Level Check
Check the engine oil level with the engine stopped and in a level
position.
1. Remove the oil filler cap.
2. Check the oil level. If it is below the upper limit, fill with the
recommended oil to the upper limit.
3. Reinstall the oil filler cap securely.
UPPER LIMIT
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage. This type
of damage is not covered by the Distributor's Limited Warranty.
The Oil Alert system will stop the engine or issue a warning before the oil
level falls below a safe limit. Refer to the instructions provided by the
equipment manufacturer.

completely.
1. Place a suitable container below the engine to catch the used oil,
then remove the oil filler cap, oil drain plug and sealing washer.
2. Allow the used oil to drain completely, then reinstall the oil drain
plug and a new sealing washer, and tighten the oil drain plug
securely.

Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible with the
environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed container to your
local recycling center or service station for reclamation. Do not throw it
in the trash, pour it on the ground, or pour it down a drain.
3. With the engine in a level position, fill with the recommended oil to
the upper limit (bottom edge of the oil fill hole).
