Engine Oil Level Inspection
◦
Place the engine on a level surface.
◦ Remove the oil filler cap [A] and wipe its dipstick
[B] with a clean cloth.
◦ Insert the dipstick into tube [C] without
screwing it in, then check the oil level.
◦ The oil level should be the operating range (grid
area) [D] on the dipstick. If the oil level is “ADD”
range [E], add enough engine oil to bring oil level
to the operating range.
Lubrication System
Caution:
Do not add more oil above the
operating range. Excess oil will cause
a smoking condition.
◦
Use the same type and make of oil that is
already in the engine.
Note:
If the engine oil type and make are
unknown, use any brand of the specified
oil to top up the level in preference to
running the engine with the oil level
low. Then at your earliest convenience,
change the oil completely.
• If the oil level is “FULL” range [F], drain the excess oil
by loosening the quick drain fitting.
Engine Oil Change
• Change the oil after first 8 hours of operation.
Thereafter change oil every 50 hours.
•
Start and warm up the engine to drain the oil easily.
•
Stop the engine.
•
Place the unit on a level surface.
•
Use a suitable container to contain drained engine oil.
• Release the drain tube from the clamp.
•
Position the drain tube into the container.
• Twist the quick open oil drain fitting approximately
1/4 turn to allow the oil to drain from the engine into
the container.
• When all oil has drained, twist the oil drain fitting
closed and secure the drain hose.
Warning:
Be careful of hot oil when draining.
It may be hot enough to burn you
severely.
