Figure 5
2. Slowly pour oil into the oil fill tube, periodically
checking the level with the dipstick, until the dipstick
indicates that the engine is full as illustrated in Figure
5. Do not overfill. (Max. fill: 0.58 quart (0.55 l),
type: SAE 30W detergent oil with an API service
classification of SH, SJ, SL, or higher.)
Note: Each time you check the oil level, remove the
dipstick and wipe it clean, insert it into the oil filler neck
(but do not screw it in), then remove it again and check
the level (Figure 5).
Note: If you overfill the engine, pour some oil out of
it as directed in Changing the Engine Oil.
3. Install the dipstick securely.
Important: Change the engine oil after the first 5
operating hours; change it yearly thereafter. Refer
to Changing the Engine Oil.
