Operation
Note:
Determine the left and right sides of the machine
from the normal operating position.
Checking the Engine Oil Level
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
1. Stop the machine on a level surface.
2. Set the throttle to slow, turn off the engine switch, and
wait for all moving parts to stop.
3. Clean around the dipstick (Figure 7) so that dirt cannot
fall into the filler hole and damage the engine.
Figure 7
1. Dipstick
4. Unscrew the dipstick and wipe the end clean (Figure 7).
5. Screw the dipstick fully onto the filler tube (Figure 7).
6. Unscrew the dipstick again and look at the end. If the
engine oil level is low, slowly pour only enough oil into
the filler tube to raise the level to the Full mark on the
dipstick.
Important:
Do not overfill the crankcase with
engine oil and run the engine; engine damage
may result.
Cleaning Debris from the
Machine
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
1. Set the throttle to slow, stop the engine, and wait for
all moving parts to stop.
WARNING
Contact with hot parts on the machine can
cause severe burns.
Wait for all parts to cool before touching the
machine.
2. Brush dirt and debris away from the air cleaner and
engine openings.
Adding Fuel
•
For best results, use only clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline
with an octane rating of 87 or higher ((R+M)/2 rating
method).
•
Oxygenated fuel with up to 10% ethanol or 15% MTBE
by volume is acceptable.
•
Do not use ethanol blends of gasoline (such as E15
or E85) with more than 10% ethanol by volume.
Performance problems and/or engine damage may result
which may not be covered under warranty.
•
Do not use gasoline containing methanol.
•
Do not store fuel either in the fuel tank or fuel containers
over the winter unless a fuel stabilizer is used.
•
Do not add oil to gasoline.
DANGER
In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive. A fire or explosion
from gasoline can burn you and others and can
damage property.
• Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area,
when the engine is cold. Wipe up any gasoline
that spills.
• Never fill the fuel tank inside an enclosed trailer.
• Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add
gasoline to the fuel tank until the level is 1/4 to
1/2 inch (6 to 13 mm) below the bottom of the
filler neck. This empty space in the tank allows
gasoline to expand.
• Never smoke when handling gasoline, and stay
away from an open flame or where gasoline
fumes may be ignited by a spark.
• Store gasoline in an approved container and
keep it out of the reach of children. Never buy
more than a 30-day supply of gasoline.
• Do not operate without entire exhaust system in
place and in proper working condition.
