CAUTION: DO NOT attempt to crank or start the engine before it has been properly filled with
the recommended type and amount of oil. Damage to the engine as a result of failure to follow
these instructions will void your warranty.
NOTICe: The recommended oil type is 10W-30 automotive oil.
NOTICe: Once oil has been added, a visual check should show oil about 1-2 threads from
running out of the fill hole.
If using the dipstick to check oil level, DO NOT screw in the dipstick while checking.
NOTICe: Check oil often during the break-in period. Refer to the Maintenance section for
recommended service intervals.
CAUTION: The engine is equipped with a low oil shut-off and will stop when the oil level in the
crankcase falls below the threshold level.
NOTICe: We consider the first 5 hours of run time to be the break-in period for the engine.
During the break in period we recommend using standard automotive non-synthetic blended oils.
After the break in period synthetic lubricant can be used but is not required. Adjusting throttle
setting will increase/decrease engine speed helping to seat piston rings. Avoid bogging or lugging
the engine down and avoid prolonged running at constant RPM. After the 5 hour break-in period,
change the oil.
NOTICe: Synthetic oil may be used after the 5 hour initial break-in period. Using synthetic oil
does not decrease the recommended oil change interval. Full synthetic 5W-30 oil will aid in starting
in cold ambient < 41º F (5º C).
NOTICe: Weather will affect engine oil and engine performance. Change the type of engine oil
used based on weather conditions to suit the engine needs.
