FUEL AND ENGINE OIL
―――――――――――――――――
FUEL
―――――――――――――――――
• Use clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline. (Do not use leaded gasoline.)
• Use gasoline within 30 days of purchase. Do not use old gasoline. Doing so could cause
problems.
• Do not mix alcohol etc. into the gasoline.
• Do not overflow the gasoline when filling the fuel tank. (Leave several centimeters of
space at the top of the tank.)
WARNING
• Flame and heat can cause gasoline to explode. Be sufficiently careful of flame and heat
when handling gasoline.
―――――――――――――――― ENGINE OIL ――――――――――――――――
Engine is shipped from factory without oil. Before starting the engine, be sure to conduct
an oil inspection by following the instructions given below.
1
Place the engine on a level surface when adding oil and conducting inspections.
2
Check the oil level without the oil gauge screwed in.
3
Fill the oil up to the F-level of the oil gauge (correct level).
4
Before starting the engine, tightly screw in the oil gauge.
• Replace or add engine oil following the table below.
• For oil, use high-quality pure API class oils with a grade of SE or higher.
• Do not add commercial additives to the recommended oil. Do not mix gasoline into the oil.
• When using multiple grade oils, the amount of oil consumption will increase, so check the
oil level more frequently than single grade oil.
