CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
Do not overfill engine. Too much oil may cause engine to
smoke or cause spark plug fouling.
Do not overfill engine. Too much oil may cause smoking
or allow oil to enter the air filter enclosure.
The oil should be checked with the engine warm. The
vehicle should be on a level surface with the parking
(PARK) brake engaged. Allow adequate time for oil to
drain into the crankcase before checking.
Remove the dipstick and wipe off the entire area with a
lint free cloth (Ref Fig. 16 on page 15).
Fig. 16 Clean Entire Dipstick
Insert the dipstick
fully

Examine the level of the oil on the dipstick.
Fig. 17 Check Oil Level on Dipstick
The engine can be operated safely as long as oil is within
the safe operating range as indicated on the dip stick.
Do
not operate vehicle if oil level is below the safe area
indicated on the dipstick.
Oil should be added to bring the level into the safe oper-
ating range. Remember that oil expands as it gets hot,
Do not overfill
(Ref Fig. 17 on page 15). Check that the
oil cap is firmly in place.
When adding oil between oil changes, do not mix brands and
viscosity grades of oil.
The oil dipstick/fill cap must be in place before operating the
engine. Failure to install the dipstick/fill cap will result in oil
becoming contaminated and/or oil being discharged into the
engine compartment.
