Machines are shipped with no oil
. Initially add 16 oz. of the oil
recommended by the Engine Manufacturer. Wait one minute for the oil to
settle.

Replace the Dipstick, but DO NOT screw it in to ensure an accurate reading
and then remove it to check the oil level (clean the Dipstick with the clean
rag after checking).
4.
Continue adding a few ounces of oil at a time, rechecking the Dipstick until
the oil reaches the fill mark. Be careful not to overfill.
5.
Replace the Dipstick and screw all the way down when full.

Remove the Gas Fill Cap and fill the Gas Tank with fresh, unleaded gas (with
a minimum of 85 Octane) to approximately 1" to 1-1/2" below the top of the
fill neck to allow for fuel expansion (
Figure 14
). Be careful not to overfill.
Install the Gas Fill Cap before starting the engine. See your Engine Owner’s
Manual for more detailed information.
NOTE:
To refill the gas tank, turn the engine OFF and let the engine cool at least
five minutes before removing the gas fill cap.

Carburetor fouling.
