Gas & Oil

The engine is shipped without gasoline in the

engine. See the following instructions for adding gasoline.

Some engines are shipped with oil already in

the engine, others without oil already in the engine. It is very

important to check the oil level before operating the engine and

to add oil if necessary. Running the engine with insufficient oil

can cause serious engine damage and void the engine warranty

oz. Refer to the viscosity chart (Fig. 3-1) for oil recommendations.

Do not over-fill. Use a 4-stroke, or an equivalent high detergent,

premium quality motor oil certified to meet or exceed

U.S. automobile manufacturer’s requirements for service

classification of a minimum level SF or SG (higher letter ratings

are acceptable such as SJ, SL and SM grades). Motor oil will

display this designation on the container.

NOTE: Do not use non-detergent oil or 2-stroke engine oil. It

could shorten the engine’s service life.

Checking the Oil

This manual covers several different engine models. Instructions

for checking the oil with various different oil cap/dipstick

configurations follow. Refer to the instructions that pertain to the

particular engine model that you have.

To avoid engine damage, it is important to:

Check oil level before each use and every 5 operating 

hours when engine is warm. Check oil level more

frequently during engine break-in.

Keep oil level near or slightly below the upper level 

mark on the dipstick or to point of overflow on

engines without dipstick. See Fig. 3-2.

engine.

NOTE: Do not overfill. Overfilling with oil may cause smoking,

hard starting, or spark plug fouling.

NOTE: DO NOT allow oil level to fall below the “L” mark on the

dipstick. Doing so may result in equipment malfunctions or

damage.

NOTE: some engines are equipped with a dipstick or oil fill plug.

NOTE: To change the oil on your engine, see the Maintenance

Section of this manual.
