Operation

Pre-Operation Procedures

Caution: Failure to add oil to the Engine before use will damage the Engine and void the factory warranty. Engine oil is the key factor in engine performance. Do not use Engine oil with additives. Do not use two-stroke gasoline-oil. Using these will shorten Engine life. See Specifications on page 2 for recommended oil type. Also, add 1.5 gallons of quality hydraulic fluid to the reservoir tank before use.

1.Check that all engine and hydraulic mounting nuts and bolts, and hoses are tight.

2.Check engine oil level (See illustration below, left.) If needed, add oil as listed in Specifications, Engine, on page 2.

Unscrew the oil Dip Stick and wipe clean. Insert the Dip Stick back into the hole and screw it in. Remove it again and check the oil level. Full is indicated by oil on the Upper Level mark. Use a siphon to avoid spilling the oil. Carefully screw the plastic Dip Stick back into the metal Engine crankcase to avoid stripping the plastic threads on the Dip Stick.

4.Check and add hydraulic fluid to the Hydraulic Fluid Tank as needed (up to 1.5 gallons). You can use 10 W AW or Dextron lll automatic transmission fluid. You need to change the fluid every 100 hours of usage. See photo at the top of page 6.
