Owner’s Manual and Service Guide
Read all of manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
TIRE INSPECTION
Tire condition should be inspected per the Periodic Ser-
vice Schedule (Ref. Fig. 21 on page 15). Inflation pres-
sures should be checked when the tires are cool. Be sure
to install the valve dust cap after checking or inflating.
CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
Do not overfill engine. Too much oil
may cause engine to smoke or spark
plug fouling.
When adding oil between oil changes, do not
mix brands and viscosity grades of oil. Both the
oil dipstick and fill cap must be in place before operating the
engine. Failure to install the dipstick and fill cap will result in oil
becoming contaminated and/or oil being discharged into the
engine compartment.
The oil should be checked with the engine warm. The
vehicle must be on a level surface with the park brake
engaged. Allow adequate time for oil to drain into the
crankcase before checking.
Remove the dipstick and wipe off the entire area indi-
cated with a lint free cloth (Ref. Fig. 22 on page 17).
Insert the dipstick fully into the dipstick hole and remove.
Examine the level of oil on the dipstick.
The engine can be operated safely as long as oil is within
the safe operating range as indicated on the dipstick. Do
not operate vehicle if oil level is below the safe area
indicated on the dipstick (Ref. Fig. 23 on page 17).
Oil should be added to bring the level into the safe oper-
ating range. Do not overfill. Check that the oil fill cap
and dipstick are firmly in place.

For maximum performance and longevity, the engine oil
should be replaced every 125 hours of operation or semi-
annually, whichever comes first.
The selection of oil is dependent upon the service that
the vehicle will perform. Most vehicles require 10W-30
oil, whereas vehicles used at capacity or near capacity
load applications will require 10W-40 oil after run-in (Ref.
Fig. 24 on page 18).
To reduce the possibility
of severe injury, wear
rubber gloves to protect
skin from exposure to hot, used oil and degreaser.
These fluids contain chemicals known to cause can-
cer.
