The engine is shipped from the factory without oil. Running the engine without oil will
result in severe engine damage and void the warranty. To avoid causing engine damage
and voiding the warranty, fill the engine with the recommended oil type.
Oil is a major factor in the performance and service life of any engine. Using the incorrect
oil may damage the engine and void the warranty. To avoid causing engine damage and
voiding the warranty, check and change oil as required using the correct engine oil.
1. Check oil with the pump on a level surface and the engine off.
2. Remove the dipstick by unscrewing the gray cap and pulling it out, then wipe it clean.
3. Place clean dipstick into engine, but do not thread it in, rest it on the filler neck.
4. Remove the dipstick from the filler neck and check oil level. Oil level should be at the
high mark on the dipstick.
5. If level is low, add the recommended oil to the crankcase until the level reaches the
upper limit on the dipstick. See the engine manual for recommended oil.
6. Install the dipstick and tighten cap by threading it into the filler neck.
