SERVICING YOUR TILLER

ENGINE

Engine Oil Level Check

Check the engine oil level before each use, or every 10 hours if operated continuously. Rest the tiller on a level surface, with the engine stopped and in an upright position.

1. Tip the tiller on its carry handlebar [1] as shown.

2. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick [2] and wipe it clean.

3. Insert and remove the dipstick without screwing it into the

filler opening. Check the oil level shown on the dipstick.

4. If the oil level is low, fill to the edge of the oil filler hole [3] with

the recommended oil. To avoid overfilling or underfilling, be

 

sure the engine is in a level position, as shown.

NOTICE

Running the engine with too little or too much oil can cause

[3]

engine damage.

5. Screw in the oil filler cap/dipstick securely.

Engine Oil Change

Drain the used oil while the engine is warm. Warm oil drains quickly and completely.

1.Place a suitable container below the engine to catch the used oil.

2.Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick.

3.Tip the tiller to drain the used oil through the oil filler opening.

Allow the used oil to drain completely.

Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible with the environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed container to your local recycling center or service station for reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash, pour it on the ground or down a drain.

4.With the engine resting on the carrying handlebar on a level surface, fill to the edge of the oil filler hole with the recommended oil. See oil recommendations below. Do not overfill.

5.Screw in the filler cap/dipstick securely.

Engine Oil Recommendations

Use 4-stroke motor oil that meets or exceeds the requirements for API service classification SJ (or later). Always check the API service label on the oil container to be sure it includes the letters SJ or equivalent.

SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general use. Other viscosities shown in the chart may be used when the average temperature in your area is within the recommended range.
