PILOT 4 Cycle Tiller/Cultivator
Checking and Adding Oil
To operate the engine, we recommend using 4-cycle oil (
194211
), or an equivalent 10W-30 engine oil to ensure that the
engine operates correctly throughout the life of the engine. Use straight unleaded premium gasoline, low/no ethanol
blends recommended.
1.
Be sure the engine is located on a level surface before
checking or refilling oil. Proper position for checking
oil level or refilling oil is face down, with the gas tank
of the Tiller/Cultivator down on a horizontal surface
(
Figure 4
).
2.
Clean around oil fill area.
3.
Unscrew dipstick and wipe clean with cloth.
4.
Reinsert dipstick (must be fully threaded for accurate
reading).
5.
Unscrew and check dipstick. If no oil shows on the
dipstick, refill so that the oil level appears between the
low and high marks on the dipstick (
Figure 5
).
6.
Change oil if contaminated.
Figure 4
Figure 5
Engine is shipped from factory without oil. You must add engine oil before starting engine. If engine is started
without oil, engine may be damaged beyond repair and will not be covered by warranty.
Engine must be tipped forward with gas tank down when checking oil level or filling with oil (Figure 4). Failure to do
so can result in overfilling the engine with oil which will impair the engine’s performance.
