Changing Engine Oil And Oil Filter - GE 40334 Manual Del Operador

engine oil
The engine is filled with synthetic oil (API SJ/CF 5W-30).
This allows for system operation in the widest range of
temperature and climate conditions.
We recommend the use of Briggs & Stratton Warranty
Certified oils for best performance. Other high-quality
detergent oils are acceptable if classified for service SJ or
higher. DO NOT use special additives.
Outdoor temperatures determine the proper oil viscosity for
the engine. Use the chart to select the best viscosity for the
outdoor temperature range expected.
NOTICE 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.
