The Engine is equipped with an automatic shutoff to protect
it from damage due to low oil. Nonetheless, you should check
the oil level of the engine before each use to ensure that the
engine crankcase has a sufficient amount.
To check the oil level:
a. Make sure the Engine is on a level surface.
b. Remove dipstick.
c. With a dry cloth, wipe the oil off of the stick.
d. Insert the dipstick completely back into its hole in
the engine case. the pull it out again. There should
now be oil on the stick. If there is no oil on the stick,
or oil only at the very end of the stick, you should
add oil until the engine crankcase is filled (see
“Adding Oil” portion of the “Maintenance” section).
e. Be sure to replace the dipstick when finished
checking oil.
NOTE: The oil capacity for your Engine can be found in the
“Specifications” section of this manual.
