Changing the Engine Oil
Change the engine oil after the first 2 operating hours, then
yearly thereafter. If possible, run the engine just before
changing the oil because warm oil flows better and carries
more contaminants.
Max. fill: 26 oz. (0.77 l), type: automotive detergent oil with
an API service classification of SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL, or higher.
•
For temperatures above 32°F (0°C), use SAE 30W.
•
For temperatures between 0°F and 32°F (-18°C to 0°C),
use SAE 5W30 or SAE 10W.
•
For air temperatures below 0°F (-18°C), use SAE 0W30.

Important:
Do not get oil on the rubber wheel or
the aluminum friction drive plate because the traction
drive will slip (Figure 43).

Inspecting and Replacing the
Spark Plug
Use a Champion RJ-19LM or equivalent spark plug. Check
and gap the spark yearly, and replace the plug if necessary.
1. Clean around the base of the spark plug.
2. Remove the spark plug.
3. Examine the spark plug and replace it if it is cracked,
fouled, dirty, or if the electrodes are worn.
Important:
Do not clean the electrodes because
grit could enter the cylinder and damage the
engine.
4. Set the gap between the electrodes on the spark plug at
0.030 inch (0.76 mm) (Figure 45).
