◆ 1.5.3 ENGINE OIL REQUIREMENTS

Use a high-quality detergent oil with American Petroleum Institute (API) classification “For Service CC.” Detergent oils keep the engine cleaner and reduce carbon deposits. Use oil having the following SAE vis- cosity rating, based on the ambient temperature range anticipated before the next oil change:

Temperature	Oil Grade (Recommended)
Above 100º F (38º C)	SAE 15W-40* or SAE 40
40º to 100º F (4.4º to 38º C)	SAE 10W-30 or SAE 30
Below 40º F (4.4º C)	SAE 5W-20 or 5W-30

* - in units from the factory

Crankcase and oil filter capacity is approximately 3.5 L or 3.7 U.S. quarts. Do NOT use special additives. See Sections 3.1 and 3.2 (Page 12) for oil level check- ing and changing procedures.

◆1.5.4 COOLANT

Use a 50:50 mixture that is half low silicate, ethylene glycol base antifreeze and half soft water. Use only soft water and only low silicate antifreeze. If desired, you may add a high-quality rust inhibitor to the rec- ommended coolant mixture. When adding coolant, always add the recommended 50-50 mixture.

Do not remove the radiator pressure cap while the engine is hot; otherwise, serious burns from boiling liquid or steam could result.

Ethylene glycol base antifreeze is poisonous. Do not use your mouth to siphon coolant from the radiator, recovery bottle, or any container. Wash your hands thoroughly after handling. Never store used antifreeze in an open contain- er because animals are attracted to the smell and taste of antifreeze, even though it is poiso- nous to them.

Do not use any chromate base rust inhibitor with ethylene glycol base antifreeze; or else, chromium hydroxide (“green slime”) will form and cause overheating. Engines that have been operated with a chromate base rust inhibitor must be chemically cleaned before adding eth- ylene glycol base antifreeze. Using any high-sil- icate antifreeze boosters or additives will also cause overheating. We also recommend that you DO NOT use any soluble oil inhibitor for this equipment.
