Starting the Engine
Inspect engine and equipment looking for damaged, loose, and missing parts before set up and starting. If any problems are found, do not use equipment until fixed properly.
Checking Engine Oil Level
CAUTION! Your Warranty is VOID if the engine’s crankcase is not properly filled with oil before each use. Before each use, check the oil level. Do not run the engine with low or no engine oil. Running the engine with no or low engine oil WILL permanently damage the engine.
1.Turn off engine and allow it to cool.
2.Clean the Oil Filler Cap and the area around it. Remove the Oil Filler Cap.
Figure 3
3.Remove dipstick and wipe away the oil with dry cloth. Reinsert the dip- stick into the oil filler neck, but do not screw in, then remove it to check the oil level. The oil level should reach
the upper limit (H) mark on the dip- stick (bottom edge of the oil fill hole). Low oil level can trigger the low oil sensor to shutdown the engine and prevent restart (See Figure 3 for cor- rect oil level).
4.If the oil level is low, add the appropriate type of oil until the oil level is at the bottom lip of the oil fill hole.
Oil type:
32° F or above = SAE
5.Replace the Oil Filler Cap.
CAUTION! Do not run the engine with too little or too much oil. The engine will be permanently damaged.
