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 5.) 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 Sentry™

Some engines are equipped with an optional Oil

Sentry™ oil pressure switch monitor. If the oil pressure

decreases below an acceptable level, the Oil Sentry™

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 Sentry™.

Change oil after every 100 hours of operation (more

frequently under severe conditions). Refill with service

flow freely and carry away more impurities. Make sure

the engine is level when filling, checking, and changing

the oil.

Change the oil as follows (see Figures 8 and 9):

1. To keep dirt, debris, etc., out of the engine, clean

the area around the oil fill cap/dipstick before

removing it.

2. Remove one of the oil drain plugs, oil fill cap, and
