<Caution>
You cannot measure the oil level accurately when the equipment is on an uneven
surface.
If the machine is placed on an uneven surface, it is still possible for the engine to run,
however, the oil sensor may not detect accurately the true level of oil and this may cause
engine failure.
Engine Oil Selection
Use the engine oil with the correct viscosity, based on the ambient temperature (Refer
to the chart below).
<Caution>
Use oil of Class SE or superior.
Check the remaining oil level more frequently when using a multi-grade type oil, as the
oil consumption rate increases under high ambient temperature.
