Check Oil Level
The importance of checking and maintaining
the proper oil level in the crankcase cannot be
overemphasized. Check oil BEFORE EACH USE as
follows:
1. Make sure the engine is stopped, level, and is
cool so the oil has had time to drain into the
sump.
2. Clean the area around and beneath the dipstick
before removing it. This will help keep snow, ice,
and other foreign matter out of the engine. See
Figure 26.
