Oil Sentry™

Some engines are equipped with 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 dipstick. This includes engines

equipped with Oil Sentry™.

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

flow freely and carry away more impurities. Make sure

the engine is level when filling, checking, or changing

oil.

Change the oil as follows:

1. To keep dirt, grass clippings, etc., out of the

engine, clean the area around the oil fill cap

before removing it.

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

engine slightly towards the oil drain to obtain

better drainage.

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

securely.

4. 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.

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

securely.

Change Oil Filter

Some engines are equipped with an oil filter. Replace

the oil filter every other oil change, in accordance with

the "Oil Change Intervals" table above. Always use a

genuine Kohler oil filter, Part No. 52 050 02, and

replace as follows:

1. Drain crankcase oil. Remove the old filter and

wipe off the filter adapter.

2. Place a new replacement filter in a shallow pan

with the open end up. Pour new oil, of the proper

type, in through the threaded center hole. Stop

pouring when the oil reaches the bottom of the

threads. Allow a minute or two for the oil to be

absorbed by the filter material.

3. Apply a thin film of clean oil to the rubber gasket

on the new filter.

4. Install the replacement oil filter to the filter adapter.

Turn filter clockwise until rubber seal contacts the

filter adapter, then tighten filter an additional 2/3 to

1 turn.

5. Fill the crankcase with new oil of the proper type,

to the ''F'' mark on the dipstick. Add an additional

1/2 pint of oil for the filter capacity. See

"Specifications" on page 14.

6. Test run the engine to check for leaks. Stop the

engine, allow a minute for the oil to drain down,

and recheck the level on the dipstick. Make sure

oil level is up to but not over the ''F'' mark on the

dipstick.
