Operating Instructions - Kärcher HD 2.3/24 P / CD-23243 Operator's Manual

STEP 1: Check engine oil level. Oil level should be level with the bottom
of the oil filler neck. Be sure the machine is level when checking the oil
level. (Refer to the engine's operating manual included with machine.) We
recommend that the oil be changed after the first 5 hours of use, then once
every 50 hours. Note: Improper oil levels will cause low oil sensor to shut
off engine. IMPORTANT! Do not run engine with high or low oil levels
as this will cause engine damage.
STEP 3: Fill gas tank with unleaded
gasoline. Do not use leaded gaso-
line.
