BEFORE
STARTING
ENGINE
IMPORTANT:
Be very careful not to allow
dirt to enter the engine when checking or
adding oil or fuel. Use clean oil and fuel
and store in approved, clean, covered
containers,
use clean fill funnels.
CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL
The engine in your unit has been
shipped, from the factory, already filled
with SAE 30 summer weight oil.
1. With engine level, clean area around
oil filler plug and remove plug.
2.
Engine oil should be to point of
overflowing
when engine is level.
• For approximate capacity see "PROD-
UCT SPECIFICATIONS"
on page 4 of
this manual. All oil must meet A.P.I.
Service Classification SF-SJ.
• For cold weather operation you should
change oil for easier starting (See oil
viscosity chart in the Maintenance
section of this manual).
• To change engine oil, see the Mainte-
nance section in this manual.
Oil Fill
ADD GASOLINE
• Fill fuel tank.
Use fresh, clean, regular
unleaded gasoline.
(Use of leaded
gasoline will increase carbon and lead
oxide deposits and reduce valve life.)
IMPORTANT:
When operating in tem-
peratures below 32°F(0°C),
use fresh,
clean, winter grade gasoline to help
insure good cold weather starting.
_WARNING:
Experience indicates that
alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or
using ethanol or methanol) can attract
moisture which leads to separation and
formation
of acids during storage.
Acidic
gas can damage the fuel system of an
engine while in storage. To avoid engine
problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage of 30 days or
longer.
Drain the gas tank, start the
engine and let it run until the fuel lines
and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel
next season.
See Storage section of this
manual for additional information.
Never
use engine or carburetor cleaner prod-
ucts in the fuel tank or permanent
damage may occur.
ACAUTION:
Fill to within 1/2 inch of top
of fuel tank to prevent spills and to allow
for fuel expansion.
If gasoline is acciden-
tally spilled, move machine away from
area of spill. Avoid creating any source of
ignition until gasoline vapors have
disappeared.
Do not overfill. Wipe off any spilled oil or
fuel.
Do not store, spill or use gasoline
near an open flame.
