CAUTION
: The use of non-synthetic multi-
viscosity oils (5W-30, 10W-30, etc.) in
temperatures above 40°F (4°C ) will result in
higher than normal oil consumption. When usin g
a multi- viscosity oil, check oil level more
frequently. SAE 30 oil, if used below 40°F (4°C),
will result in hard starting an d possible engine
bore damage due to inadequate lubrication.
NOTE
: The use of synthetic oils does not alter
the oil change intervals.

8 hours. Thereafter, change oil every 100 hours
