Engine Maintenance

Oil

Oil Recommendations

We recommend the use of Briggs & Stratton Warranty
Certified oils for best performance. Other high-quality
detergent oils are acceptable if classified for service SF, SG,
SH, SJ or higher. DO NOT use special additives.

Outdoor temperatures determine the proper oil viscosity for
the engine. Use the chart to select the best viscosity for the
outdoor temperature range expected.

* Below 40°F (4°C) the use of SAE 30 will result in hard starting.

** Above 80°F (27°C) the use of 10W30 may cause increased oil

consumption. Check oil level more frequently.

NOTE: 

Synthetic oil meeting ILSAC GF-2, API

certification mark and API service symbol with
“SJ / CF ENERGY CONSERVING” or higher, is an
acceptable oil at all temperatures. Use of synthetic
oil does not alter required oil change intervals.

Checking Oil Level

Oil level should be checked prior to each use or at least
every 8 hours of operation. Keep oil level maintained.

1. Make sure pressure washer is on a level surface.

2. Remove oil dipstick and wipe dipstick with clean cloth.

Replace and tighten dipstick. Remove and and check oil
level.

3. Verify oil is at “

Full

” mark on dipstick. Replace and

tighten dipstick.

Adding Engine Oil

1. Make sure pressure washer is on a level surface.

2. Check oil level as described in 

Checking Oil Level

.

3. If needed, slowly pour oil into oil fill opening to the

Full

” mark on dipstick. DO NOT overfill.

4. Replace and tighten dipstick.

Changing Engine Oil

Change the engine oil after the first 5 hours and every
50 hours thereafter. If you are using your pressure washer
under extremely dirty or dusty conditions, or in extremely
hot weather, change the oil more often.

KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. DON’T
POLLUTE. CONSERVE RESOURCES. RETURN
USED OIL TO COLLECTION CENTERS.

WARNING

Unintentional sparking can result in fire or
electric shock.

WHEN ADJUSTING OR MAKING REPAIRS TO YOUR PRESSURE
WASHER

• Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and place

the wire where it cannot contact spark plug.

WHEN TESTING FOR ENGINE SPARK

• Use approved spark plug tester.

• DO NOT check for spark with spark plug removed.

NOTICE

Overfilling with oil may cause the engine to not start, or
hard starting.

• DO NOT overfill.

• If over the FULL mark on dipstick, drain oil to reduce oil level to

FULL mark on dipstick.

CAUTION

Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact with used motor
oil.

• Used motor oil has been shown to cause skin cancer in certain

laboratory animals.

• Thoroughly wash exposed areas with soap and water.
