OPERATION
Always use a 4-stroke motor lubricant that meets or exceeds
the requirements for API service classification SJ. Check
lubricant level before each use.
NOTE:
Non-detergent or 2-stroke engine lubricants will
damage the engine and should not be used.
To add engine lubricant:
Remove the cap and seal from lubricant bottle
provided.
Unscrew the oil cap/dipstick and remove.
Using a funnel add entire bottle of engine lubricant
through oil fill hole.
Reinstall the oil cap/dipstick and secure.
To check engine lubricant level:
Set cultivator in upright position with the wheel assembly
connected for stability.
Wipe dipstick clean and re-seat in hole; do not rethread.
Remove dipstick again and check lubricant level. Lubricant
level should fall within the hatched area on the dipstick.
If level is low, add engine lubricant until the fluid level rises
to the upper portion of the hatched area on the dipstick.
Replace and secure the oil cap/dipstick.
CAUTION:
Do not overfill. Overfilling the crankcase may cause
excessive smoke, oil loss, and engine damage.
WARNING:
Gasoline and its vapors are highly flammable and ex-
plosive. To prevent serious personal injury and property
damage, handle it with care. Keep away from ignition
sources and open flames, handle outdoors only, do not
smoke while mixing gasoline and lubricant together; and
wipe up spills immediately.
