because the fuel system could be damaged. Do not mix
oil with gasoline.
Using Stabilizer/Conditioner
Use a fuel stabilizer/conditioner in the machine to provide
the following benefits:
•
Keeps gasoline fresh during storage of 90 days or less.
For longer storage it is recommended that the fuel tank
be drained.
•
Cleans the engine while it runs.
•
Eliminates gum-like varnish buildup in the fuel system,
which causes hard starting.
Important:
Do not use fuel additives containing
methanol or ethanol.
Add the correct amount of gas stabilizer/conditioner to the
gas.
Note:
A fuel stabilizer/conditioner is most effective when
mixed with fresh gasoline. To minimize the chance of varnish
deposits in the fuel system, use fuel stabilizer at all times.
Filling the Fuel Tank
1.
Park the machine on a level surface, lower the grinder,
and stop the engine.
2.
Allow the engine to cool.
3.
Clean around the fuel tank cap and remove it (Figure 9).

1.
Fuel-tank cap
4.
Add unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank, until the level is
6 mm to 13 mm (1/4 to 1/2 inch) below the bottom of
the filler neck.
Important:
This space in the tank allows gasoline
to expand. Do not fill the fuel tank completely full.
5.
Install the fuel tank cap securely.
6.
Wipe up any gasoline that may have spilled.
Checking the Engine-Oil Level
Service Interval:
Before each use or daily
1.
Tilt the machine so the engine is level, and stop the
engine.
2.
Allow the engine to cool.
3.
Clean around the oil dipstick.
4.
Remove the dipstick and wipe the end clean.
5.
Slide the dipstick fully into the dipstick tube without
threading it into the filler neck.
6.
Pull the dipstick out and look at the end; the oil should
be to the top of the upper limit range (Figure 10).

Oil dipstick
Important:
Running the engine with low oil level
can cause engine damage. This type of damage is
not covered by warranty.
The engine is equipped with an oil alert system
that will automatically stop the engine before the
oil level falls below the safe limit.
7.
If the oil level is low, slowly pour only enough oil into
the crankcase to raise the level to the upper limit.
Important:
Do not overfill the crankcase with oil
because the engine may be damaged.
8.
Replace the dipstick.
