Figure 2-8. Remove Dipstick

4. Add recommended engine oil. Climate

determines proper engine oil viscosity.

See chart to select correct viscosity.

NOTE: 

Use petroleum based oil (supplied) for

engine break-in before using synthetic oil.
.

NOTE: 

Some units have more than one oil fill

location. It is only necessary to use one oil fill

point.
5. Thread dipstick into oil filler neck. Oil level

is checked with dipstick fully installed.

6. Se

Figure 2-9

. Remove dipstick and verify

oil level is within safe operating range.

Figure 2-9. Safe Operating Range

7. Install oil fill cap/dipstick and hand-tighten.

Fuel

Fuel requirements are as follows:
• Clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline.
• Minimum rating of 87 octane/87 AKI (91

RON).

• Up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) is acceptable

(where available; non-ethanol-premium fuel

is recommended).

• DO NOT use E85.
• DO NOT use a gas oil mix.
• DO NOT modify engine to run on alternate

fuels. Stabilize fuel prior to storage.

1. Verify unit is OFF and cooled for a mini-

mum of two minutes prior to fueling.

2. Place unit on level ground in a well venti-

lated area.

3. Clean area around fuel cap and remove

cap slowly.

4. Slowly add recommended fuel. Do not fill

above red fuel indicator (A). See 

Figure 2-

10

.

5. Install fuel cap.

Figure 2-10. Add Recommended Fuel

NOTE: 

Allow spilled fuel to evaporate before

starting unit.

IMPORTANT NOTE: It is important to pre-

vent gum deposits from forming in fuel

system parts such as the carburetor, fuel

hose or tank during storage. Alcohol-

blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or

methanol) can attract moisture, which

leads to separation and formation of acids

during storage. Acidic gas can damage the

fuel system of an engine while in storage.

To avoid engine problems, the fuel system

should be emptied before storage of 30

days or longer. See th

Storage

 section.

Never use engine or carburetor cleaner

products in the fuel tank as permanent

damage may occur.

DANGER

Explosion and Fire. Fuel and vapors are 
extremely flammable and explosive. Add fuel 
in a well ventilated area. Keep fire and spark 
away. Failure to do so will result in death 
or serious injury.

DANGER

Do not overfill fuel tank. Fill to 1/2 in. of top of tank to
allow for fuel expansion. Overfilling may cause fuel to
spill onto engine causing fire or explosion, which will
result in death or serious injury.
