Adding Oil and Gasoline
•
YOU MUST ADD OIL BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE. THIS MACHINE IS SHIPPED WITHOUT OIL.
TRACES OF OIL MAY BE IN THE RESERVOIR FROM FACTORY TESTING, BUT YOU MUST ADD OIL
BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE. FILL THE RESERVOIR SLOWLY CHECKING THE DIPSTICK
FREQUENTLY TO AVOID OVERFILLING.
•
TO GET AN ACCURATE READING WHEN CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL:
⇒
THE MACHINE SHOULD BE ON A LEVEL SURFACE.
⇒
THE DIPSTICK SHOULD BE SCREWED DOWN ON BRIGGS & STRATTON ENGINES.
⇒
THE DIPSTICK SHOULD
NOT
BE SCREWED DOWN ON KAWASAKI ENGINES.
Tip: To avoid confusion, we recommend leaving the caps ON the fuel and oil fills until you are ready to pour
either gasoline or oil into the correct fill.
NOTE
:
Use only SAE 30 high detergent oil. Other types of oil could cause problems operating your machine.
Please refer to your engine manufacturer’s owner’s manual for detailed oil information.

Check the dipstick and continue adding a few ounces of oil at a time, rechecking the dipstick until the
oil reaches the fill mark. Be careful not to overfill.

Fill the gas tank to within 1/4 inch of the top with fresh, unleaded gas. See your engine
