Oil Fill-Up

Using the proper type and weight of oil in the crankcase is extremely important. Check the oil before each use and change the oil regularly. Failure to use the correct oil or using dirty oil can cause premature engine wear and failure. Refer to Maintenance Section.

Use a high-quality SAE 30 weight oil of API (American Petroleum Institute) service class SF, SG, or SH.

NOTE: This unit is shipped without oil in the engine. In order to avoid damage to the unit, put the recommended oil in the crankcase before attempting to start unit.

This unit is shipped with one 3.4 fluid oz. (100ml) bottle of SAE 30 SF, SG, or SH oil.

NOTE: For cold weather operation, temperatures below 40°F (4°C) use a high-quality SAE 10W30 weight oil of API (American Petroleum Institute) service class SF, SG, or SH.

When adding oil, the unit must be laid back in the horizontal position on a flat surface with the upper handle touching the ground.
