WARNING:
OVERFILLING OIL CRANKCASE
MAY CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY. Check
and maintain the proper oil level in the crank case; it
is important and cannot be overemphasized. Check
the oil before each use and change it as needed.
See Changing the Oil.
RECOMMENDED OIL TYPE
Using the proper type and weight of oil in the crankcase is
extremely important. Check the oil before each use and
change the oil regularly. Failure to use the correct oil, or using
dirty oil, can cause premature engine wear and failure.
Use a high-quality SAE 30 weight oil of API (American
Petroleum Institute) service class SF, SG, SH.
