Oil Recommendations
We recommend the use of a high quality detergent oil
such as SAE 30 or detergent oil classified "For Service
SC, SD, SE, SF, SG".
Detergent oils keep the engine cleaner and retard the
formation of gum and varnish deposits. No special
additives should be used with recommended oils.

- Change oil while engine is warm.
- To drain oil completely, always place engine level.
- Remove oil dipstick.
- Open oil drain plug.
- Replace oil drain plug.
- Clean area around the oil fill.
- Pour oil slowly in oil fill.
(Refill with new oil of proper grade.)
- Fill to "FULL" mark on dipstick.
- DO NOT overfill.
(Capacity is approximately 1.25 pints.)
- Replace dipstick.
Caution:
When tipping to service engine or equipment, close
fuel shut off valve and keep engine spark plug or air
cleaner side up.
