CHECK THE ENGINE OIL
The engine is shipped with 3.8 qt (3.6 l) of oil in the
crankcase; however, check the oil level before and
after you first start the engine.
1.
Position the machine on a level surface.
2.
Open the hood.
3.
Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean
rag. Insert the dipstick into the tube and make
sure it is seated fully. Remove the dipstick and
check the level of oil (Fig. 1). If the oil level is
low, add enough oil to raise the level to the
FULL mark on the dipstick. Do not overfill
(Fig. 2).

Note: If the level of oil is at the ADD mark on the
dipstick, add 1 pint (0.47 l) of oil and recheck
the level. Do not overfill.
4.
The engine uses any high-quality 10W30 deter-
gent oil having the American Petroleum
Institute – API–”service classification” SE or
SF. Use the following chart to select the proper
viscosity grade for the temperature expected.
Note: Using multigrade oils (5W20, 10W30
and 10W40) will increase oil consumption.
Check the oil level more often when using
them.
IMPORTANT: Check the oil level every 5
operating hours or daily. Change oil after the
first 8 hours of operation. Thereafter,
change the engine oil every after every 50
hours of operation and the engine oil filter
after every 100 hours of operation.
5.
Insert the dipstick into the tube and install the
fill cap.
CHECK THE COOLING SYSTEM
Clean debris off the screen, oil cooler and front of
the radiator daily (Fig. 3); hourly if conditions are
extremely dusty and dirty. Refer to Cleaning the
Radiator and Screen section.
