BEFORE STARTING ENGINE
ADD OIL (See Fig. 7)
Your lawnmower is shipped without oil in the engine. Engine
holds 20 oz. of oil. For type and grade of oil to use, see
"ENGINE" in Customer Responsibilities section of this
manual.
1. Be sure lawnmower is level and area around oil fill is
clean.
2. Remove engine oil cap and fill to the full line on the
dipstick. Pour oil slowly. Do not over fill.
NOTE: ALLOW OIL TO SETTLE DOWN INTO ENGINE
FOR ACCURATE READING. TO READ PROPER LEVEL,
TIGHTEN ENGINE OIL CAP, THEN REMOVE IT TO READ
THE DIPSTICK.
3. Reinstall engine oil cap and tighten.
• Check oil level before each use. Add oil if needed. Fill
to full line on dipstick.
• Change the oil after every 25 hours of operation or each
season. You may need to change the oil more often
under dusty, dirty conditions.
ADD GASOLINE (See Fig. 7)
NOTE: BEFORE FILLING FUEL TANK, REMOVE AND
DISCARD THE DEBRIS PLUG THAT IS INSIDE THE TANK.
• Fill fuel tank. Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded
gasoline with a minimum of 87 octane. Do not mix oil
with gasoline. Purchase fuel in quantities that can be
used within 30 days to assure fuel freshness.
WARNING: Experience indicates that alcohol blended fuels
(called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract
moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of
an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the
fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or
longer. Drain the gas tank, start the engine and let it run until
the fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next
season. See Storage Instructions for additional information.
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel
tank or permanent damage may occur.
