prevent overfilling.

CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
The oil level must always be checked before the engine
is started. Take care to remove any dirt or debris from
around the oil plug before removing. Be sure the oil level is
maintained. Fill to the “FULL” mark on the dipstick.
AIR FILTER

from inside to outside the cartridge at a distance of at least
6 inches from the paper. Lightly and repeatedly tap the
element on a hard surface to eliminate all excess dirt.

If you are using oil of a quality lower than the
recommended one then you will have to replace it every
150 hours
If major engine service or repair is required, contact an
authorized engine service center. The manufacturer of
these engines has established an excellent world-wide
engine service organization. Engine service is very likely
available from a nearby authorized dealer or distributor.
CHANGING THE OIL
Change the oil after the first 50 hours of operation and
yearly or 250 hours thereafter under normal operating
conditions.
Outdoor temperatures determine the proper oil viscosity for
the engines. Winco recommends our 5W-30 fully synthetic
oil to give you excellent protection in cold temperatures
while maintaining excellent performance in warmer
weather.
A. Change oil while the engine is still warm, the oil will
flow more freely.
B. Push in the yellow adapter slightly and turn to the left,
unlocking the oil drain. Drain the oil into an approved
