MAINTENANCE

Using nondetergent oil can shorten the engine’s service life, and

using 2-stroke oil can damage the engine.

SAE 1 OW-30 is recommended for general, all-temperature use.

Other viscosities shown in the chart (previous page) may be used

when the average temperature in your area is within the indicated

range.

5. After changing the engine oil, and before starting the engine, check

the oil level with the mower on a level surface:

a. Wipe the dipstick clean.

b. Insert and remove the dipstick without screwing it into the filler

neck. Check the oil level shown on the dipstick.

c. If the oil level is low, add oil to reach the upper limit mark

the

dipstick. Do not overfill. If the

engine

is overfilled, the excess oil

may get transferred to the air cleaner housing and air cleaner

elements.

1 NOTICE 1

Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine

damage.

d. Screw in the filler cap/dipstick

securely.
