LUBRICATION
Use only high quality detergent oil rated with API service
classification SJ–SN. Select the oil's SAE viscosity grade
according to your expected operating temperature.
NOTE: Multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30 etc.) improve
starting in cold weather, and you should check your engine
oil level frequently to avoid possible engine damage from
running low on oil.
Change the oil after every 25 hours of operation or at least
once a year if the lawn mower is not used for 25 hours in
one year.
Check the crankcase oil level before starting the engine
and after each five (5) hours of continuous use. Tighten oil
plug securely each time you check the oil level.
TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL (See Figs. 14 & 15)
NOTE: Before tipping lawn mower to drain oil, empty fuel
tank by running engine until fuel tank is empty.
1. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and place
wire where it cannot come in contact with plug.
2. Remove engine oil cap; lay aside on a clean surface.
3. Tip lawn mower on its side as shown and drain oil into
a suitable container. Rock lawn mower back and forth
to remove any oil trapped inside of engine.
4. Wipe off any spilled oil from mower or side of engine.
5. Fill engine with oil. The engine oil capacity is 18.5 oz.
If oil is not com plete ly drained from engine, you may
not need the entire container of a 20 oz. bottle of oil.
Slowly pour 3/4 of the oil from the container down the
oil fill spout into the engine.
6. Wait one minute to allow oil to settle. Use guage on
oil fill cap/dipstick for checking level. Insert dipstick
into the tube and rest the oil fill cap on the tube. DO
NOT thread the cap into the tube when taking reading.
7. Continue adding small amounts of oil and recheck-
ing the dipstick until it reads full. DO NOT overfill, or
