Checking and Adding Oil
CAUTION
The engine is shipped without oil in the engine. You must fill the
engine with oil before operating. Running the engine with insufficient
oil can cause serious engine damage and void the product warranty.
1. Place the snow thrower on a flat, level surface.
2. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe the dipstick clean. See
Figure 7.
3. Insert the cap/dipstick into the oil filler neck, but do not screw it in.
4. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick. If the level is low, slowly add oil
until oil level registers between the upper leverl and lower level,
Figure 7.
NOTE: Do not overfill. Overfilling with oil may cause smoking, hard
starting, or spark plug fouling.
5. Replace and tighten cap/dipstick firmly before starting engine.
NOTE: DO NOT allow oil level to fall below the lover level on the
dipstick. Doing so may result in equipment malfunctions or damage.
NOTE: To change the oil on your engine, see the Maintenance
Section of this manual.
