ENGINE OIL
Oil is a major factor affecting performance and service life.
Use 4-stroke automotive detergent oil.
Recommended Oil
Use 4-stroke motor oil that meets or exceeds the requirements
for API service category SJ or later (or equivalent). Always check
the API service label on the oil container to be sure it includes the
letters SJ or later (or equivalent).
SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general use. Other viscosities
shown in the chart may be used when the average temperature
in your area is within the indicated range.
Oil Level Check
Check the engine oil level with the engine stopped and in a level
position.
1. Start the engine and let it idle for 1 to 2 minutes. Stop the
engine and wait for 2 to 3 minutes.
2. Remove the oil level dipstick by pulling it. Wipe the oil level
dipstick clean.
3. Fully insert the oil level dipstick, then remove it to check the
oil level.
4. If the oil level is near or below the lower limit mark on the
dipstick, remove the oil filler cap, and fill with the
recommended oil to the upper limit mark. Do not overfill.
Refer to "Recommended Oil".
5. Fully insert the oil level dipstick. Reinstall the oil filler cap securely.
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine
damage. This type of damage is not covered by the
Distributor’s
Limited Warranty
.
The Oil Alert system (applicable types) will automatically stop the
engine before the oil level falls below the safe limit. However, to
avoid the inconvenience of an unexpected shutdown, always
check the engine oil level before startup.

Oil Change
Drain the used oil when the engine is warm. Warm oil drains
quickly and completely.
1. Place a suitable container below the engine to catch the used
oil, and then remove the oil filler cap, drain bolt, and sealing
washer.
2. Allow the used oil to drain completely, then reinstall the drain
bolt and new sealing washer, and tighten the drain bolt
securely.

Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is
compatible with the environment. We suggest you take used
oil in a sealed container to your local recycling center or
service station for reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash,
pour it on the ground, or pour it down a drain.
3. With the engine in a level position, fill with the recommended
oil to the upper limit mark on the oil level dipstick.
