LUBRICATION
NOTE: SAE 10W30 or SAE 5W30 oil is acceptable for
use in cold temperatures if engine is difficult to start.
NOTE: Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30 etc.)
improve starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity oils
will result in increased oil consumption when used above
32°F. Check your engine oil level more frequently to avoid
possible engine damage from running low on oil.
Change the oil after every 25 hours of operation or at least
once a year if the snow thrower is not used for 25 hours
in one year.
Check the crankcase oil level before starting the engine
and after each five (5) hours of continuous use. Tighten oil
fill cap / dipstick securely each time you check the oil level.
1. Move the snowthrower to a level surface.
2. Clean around the dipstick (Figure 5).
NOTE: Dipstick location may vary depending on engine
type.
3. Remove either side mounted filler cap dipstick or high
oil fill dipstick and wipe it clean.
