Before Starting

Filling the Crankcase with Oil

The crankcase can hold 20 ounces (0.59 liters) of oil. Use
only high-quality, SAE 30 weight detergent oil that has the
American Petroleum Institute (API) service classification
SF, SG, SH, or SJ.
Before each use, ensure that the oil level is between the
Add and the Full marks on the dipstick (Fig. 5).
