Recommended Oil; Oil Level Check - Aztec EDGEWINDER Owner's Manual

RECOMMENDED OIL

Oil is a major factor affecting performance and service
life of your engine. Use 4-stroke automotive detergent
oil that meets or exceeds the requirements for API
service classification SJ or later equivalent. Always
check the API service label on the oil container to be
sure it includes the letters SJ or later (or equivalent).
SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general use. Other
viscosities shown in the chart may be used when the
average temperature in your area is within the
indicated range.

OIL LEVEL CHECK

First, review to the HONDA ENGINE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE on pg 22. It is important to follow
these guidelines to protect the engine.
To check the oil level, follow these steps:
1) Stop the engine and make sure the
machine is on a level surface.
2) Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and
wipe it clean.
3) Insert and
cap/dipstick without screwing it into the
oil filler neck. Check the oil level shown
on the dipstick.
4) If the oil level is near or below the lower
limit mark on the dipstick, fill to the upper
limit mark on the dipstick with the
recommended oil, see pg 17. Do not
overfill.
5) Screw in the oil filler cap/dipstick securely.
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause serious engine damage.
The Oil Alert ® buzzer, if equipped, will warn you when the engine oil needs to
be added to the crankcase. If the buzzer sounds, stop the engine and add oil.
