Figure 23. Engine Oil Change
Dispose of used oil properly.
DO NOT
pour used oil on the ground, down a
drain, or throw in the trash. Used oil
can generally be taken to your local
recycling center or service station for
reclamation. Follow all required
environmental rules and regulations required in your area
concerning the disposal of hazardous waste such as used oil and
oil filters.
NOTE
4. Make sure the engine is in a level position and fill to the outer
edge of the oil filler hole with the recommended oil. (See
Table 3.) Engine oil capacity is 1.16 US quart (1.1 liter).
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine
damage.
5. Screw in the filler cap/dipstick securely.
1. Place an oil pan or suitable container below the engine drain
plug to catch the used oil.
2. Remove the filler cap/dipstick and the drain plug.
3. Drain the oil completely and reinstall the drain plug. Ensure
the drain plug is tightened securely.
Drain the used oil while the engine is warm by the following
method:
Refer to Figure 23.
CAUTION
Engine oil change
:
Change engine oil the first month or 20 hours of operation. Then
every 3 months/or 50 HOURS of operation. See Engine Owner’s
Manual for detailed information.
3. Adjust the front pointer wheel so it just touches the side of the
straight-edge or level.
4. Remove the straight-edge or level.
5. Position the front pointer and blade directly over the chalk
line.
6. Start the saw and lower the blade onto the chalk line.
7. Begin cutting and make sure the blade follows the chalk line
as closely as possible.
8. The pointer should follow the chalk line as well. If it does not,
adjust the pointer by loosening then tightening the jam nuts
on the pointer until the pointer follows the same path as the
blade.
1. Chalk out a straight line on the prepared slab or cutting
surface.
2. Use a straight-edge or level by placing it flat against the blade.
Front Pointer Adjustment
The front pointer wheel has been set at the factory. Use these
procedures only if the pointer is suspect of being out of alignment.
