Check Oil Level

The importance

of checking

and maintaining

the

proper oil level in the crankcase

cannot be

overemphasized.

Check oil BEFORE

EACH USE as

follows:

1. Make sure the engine is stopped,

level, and is

cool so the oil has had time to drain into the

sump.

2. To keep dirt, grass clippings,

etc., out of the

engine, clean the area around the oil fill cap or

dipstick before removing

it.

3. Remove the dipstick; wipe oil off. Reinsert the

dipstick and push it all the way down into the

tube.

4. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level.

The oil level should be up to, but not over, the "F"

mark on the dipstick. See Figure 5.

5. If the level is low, add oil of the proper type, up to

the "F" mark on the dipstick.

(Refer

to "Oil Type"

on page 4.) Always check the level with the

dipstick before adding more oil.

NOTE:

To prevent extensive

engine wear or

damage, always maintain the proper oil

.level in the crankcase.

Never operate

the engine with the oil level below the "L"

mark or over the "F" mark on the

dipstick.

Oil SentryTM

Some engines are equipped

with an optional Oil

SentryTM oil pressure switch. If the oil pressure

decreases below an acceptable

level, the Oil SentryTM

will either shut off the engine or activate a warning

signal, depending

on the application.

NOTE:

Make sure the oil level is checked

BEFORE

EACH USE and is maintained

up to the "F"

mark on the dipstick. This includes engines

equipped with Oil SentryTM.

Change the oil while the engine is still warm. The oil

will flow freely and carry away more impurities.

Make

sure the engine is level when filling, checking,

changing

the oil.

Change the oil as follows:

1. Remove the oil drain plug and oil fill cap. Tilt the

engine slightly towards the oil drain to obtain

better drainage.

2. Reinstall the drain plug. Make sure it is tightened

securely.

3. Fill with new oil of the proper type to the "F" mark

on the dipstick. Always check the level on the

dipstick before adding more oil.

NOTE:

To prevent extensive

engine wear or

damage, always maintain the proper oil

level in the crankcase.

Never operate

the engine with the oil level below the "L"

mark or over the "F" mark on the

dipstick.

4. Reinstall the oil fill cap. Make sure it is tightened

securely.
