Before Operating

Before servicing or making adjustments to the

CHECK THE CRANKCASE OIL
The engine is shipped with oil in the crankcase; howev-
er, you must check the oil level before and after you first
start the engine.
1. Position the machine on a level surface.
2. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean rag.
Push the dipstick down into the dipstick tube and
make sure it is seated fully. Pull out the dipstick
and check the oil level. If the level is low, add
enough oil to raise the level to the FULL mark on
the dipstick.
A. Above 0° C—Use SAE 30.
B. Below 0° C—Use SAE 5@-20 or 5W30.
IMPORTANT Check the oil level every 5 operat-
ing hours or daily. Change the oil after every 50
hours of operation.
