Oil Recommendations
NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use
only high quality detergent oil classified "For Service
SF, SG, SH, SJ" or higher. DO NOT use special
additives.
1.
Choose a viscosity according to the following
table:

NOTE: Synthetic oil meeting ILSAC GF-2, API
certification mark and API service symbol with "SJ/CF
ENERGY CONSERVING"
or higher, is an acceptable
oil at all temperatures.
Use of synthetic oil does not
alter required oil change intervals.
SAE 30:40
°F and higher (5 °C and higher) is good
for all purpose use above 40°F, use below 40°F will
cause hard starting.
10W-30:0
to 100 °F (-18 to 38 °C) is better for
varying temperature conditions. This grade of oil
improves cold weather starting, but may increase oil
consumption at 80°F (27°C) or higher.
*Check oil level frequently at higher temperatures.
Synthetic
5W-30:-20
to 120 °F (-30 to 40 °C)
provides the best protection at all temperatures as well
as improved starting with less oil consumption.
5W-30:40
°F and below (5 °C and below) is
recommended for winter use, and works best in cold
conditions.
Checking Oil Level
Oil level should be checked prior to each use or at least
every 5 hours of operation. Keep oil level maintained.
1.
Make sure pressure washer is on a level surface.
2.
Remove oil dipstick and wipe dipstick with clean
cloth. Replace and tighten dipstick. Remove and
and check oil level.
3.
Verify oil is at "Full" mark on dipstick. Replace and
tighten dipstick.

Adding Engine Oil
1.
Make sure pressure washer is on a level surface.
2.
Check oil level as described in "Checking Oil Level".
3.
If needed, slowly pour oil into oil fill opening to the
"Full" mark on dipstick. DO NOT overfill.
4.
Replace and tighten dipstick.
Changing Engine Oil
Change engine oil after the first 5 hours and every
50 hours or yearly thereafter. If you are using your
pressure washer under extremely dirty or dusty
conditions, or in extremely hot weather, change oil
more often.
CAUTION
Used motor oil has been shown to cause skin cancer in
certain laboratory animals.
Thoroughly wash exposed areas with soap and water.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
DON'T POLLUTE. CONSERVE
RESOURCES. RETURN USED OIL TO
COLLECTION
CENTERS.
Change oil while engine is still warm from running, as
follows:
1.
Drain fuel tank by running pressure washer until
fuel tank is empty.
2.
Disconnect spark plug wire and keep it away from
spark plug.
3.
Clean area around oil fill, remove oil fill
cap/dipstick. Wipe dipstick clean.
4.
Tip your pressure washer to drain oil from oil fill
into a suitable container making sure you tip your
unit away from spark plug. When crankcase is
empty, return pressure washer to upright position.
