3. Unscrew the oil fill cap and remove it.
4. With the machine in the operating position, carefully
pour oil into the crankcase. Wait 3 minutes for the oil
to settle and add enough to bring it to the point of
overflow. There should be very little, if any, oil left in
the bottle.
Note: You may tip the machine forward (handle up)
to make adding oil easier. Remember to return the
machine to the operating position before checking the
oil level.
Important: Do not tip the machine all the way
forward onto its nose, or fuel may leak out of the
machine.
5. Screw the oil-fill cap into the oil fill hole and tighten it
securely.

DANGER
Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive. A
fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and
others.
• To prevent a static charge from igniting the
gasoline, place the container and/or machine
on the ground before filling, not in a vehicle or
on an object.
• Fill the tank outdoors when the engine is cold.
Wipe up spills.
• Do not handle gasoline when smoking or around
an open flame or sparks.
• Store gasoline in an approved fuel container, out
of the reach of children.
• Do not tip the machine backward with fuel in
the fuel tank; otherwise, fuel may leak out of
the machine.
