Check all fluids daily. Engine must
be cold and on a level surface. Unit
is shipped with 10W30 engine oil.

Engine stops if oil level gets too low.

Fuel Valve

Open valve.

Close fuel valve before moving
unit or carburetor may flood
and make starting difficult.

Fuel

Add fresh fuel before starting
engine the first time (see mainte-
nance label for specifications). Fill
fuel tank up to 1/2 in. (13 mm) from
top to allow room for expansion.
Check fuel level on a cold engine
before use each day.

Oil

After fueling, check oil with unit on
level surface. If oil is not up to full
mark on dipstick, add oil (see main-
tenance label).

To improve cold weather
starting:

Keep battery in good condition.
Store battery in warm area off
concrete surface.

Use correct grade oil for cold
weather.
