Oil Level Check
8. Maintain the oil level in
the safe operating range,
between the upper and
lower marks on the dip-
stick. If the level is low,
add the recommended oil
in small increments, about 2 ounces (60 ml), and recheck the level.
Tip:
If the level is low, or when changing the oil, add only enough oil to bring the
level to the bottom of the safe operating range on the dipstick.
9. If the level is high, remove 2 ounces (60 ml) and recheck the level.
NOTICE:
Do not overfill the oil tank. Engine damage may occur. Always add oil
in small increments and recheck the level to avoid overfilling.
10. Recheck the oil level if oil was added or removed, making sure the
coolant temperature is within the specified range. If necessary, con-
tinue adding or removing oil until the level is in the safe operating
range.
