Oil Recommendations
NOTE: Use a 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 table below:
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 viscosity improves cold weather
starting, but may increase oil consumption above 80°F (27°C).
*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 fill cap and wipe clean with cloth.
3.
Verify oil is at the point of overflowing at oil fill opening.
Replace and tighten oil fill cap.
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 point
of overflowing at oil fill cap.
4.
Replace and tighten oil fill cap.
Changing Engine Oil
Change engine oil after the first 5 hours and every 50 hours
thereafter. If you are using your pressure washer under
extremely dirty or dusty conditions, or in extremely hot
weather, change oil more often.
Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact with used motor
oil.
• 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.
Make sure unit is on a level surface.
2.
Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and
place the wire where it cannot contact spark plug.
3.
Clean area around oil drain plug (A). The oil drain plug is
located at base of engine, opposite carburetor.

4. Remove oil drain plug and drain oil completely into a
suitable container.
5. Reinstall oil drain plug and tighten securely. Remove oil
fill cap.
6. Slowly pour oil (about 20 oz.) into oil fill opening (B) to
the point of overflowing (C) at oil fill cap. DO NOT
overfill.
