ENGINE OIL
Engine Oil Specification
Use premium quality 4-stroke engine oil with an API
Service Classification of at least SJ. A SAE multigrade
viscosity of 5W-30 or 10W-30 is suitable for use in
ambient temperatures of up to 40°C. For temperatures
above 40°C, a multigrade viscosity of 10W-40 or
15W-40 is recommended.
Never use 2-stroke engine oil either directly in the
engine or mixed in with the fuel.
Mineral based, semi-synthetic or fully synthetic oils
may be used, but different types of oils should not
be mixed together. The engine oil supplied with the
pressure washer is a mineral type with SAE 10W-30
viscosity.
Checking Engine Oil
NOTICE
Always maintain proper engine oil level. Failure to
maintain proper engine oil level can result in severe
damage to the engine or shorten the life of the
engine.
Always use the specified engine oil. Failure to use
the specified engine oil can cause accelerated wear
or shorten the life of the engine.
Engine oil level should be checked before every use.
1. Always operate or maintain the pressure washer
on a level surface.
2. Stop engine if running.
3. Let engine cool for several minutes to allow the
crankcase pressure to equalise.
4. Use a rag to clean around the oil fill plug &
dipstick.
5. Remove oil fill plug & dipstick by unscrewing it
anti-clockwise (see Figure 24) and wipe it clean.
6. Re-insert the oil fill plug & dipstick without
screwing it into the oil filler neck, remove it and
check the oil level indicated.
• Acceptable Oil Level – Oil is visible on the
crosshatches between the H and L lines on the
oil fill plug & dipstick (see Figure 25).
• Low Oil Level – Oil is below the L line on the oil
fill plug & dipstick.
The oil level should ideally be at or close to the
H line.

Adding Engine Oil
1. Always operate or maintain the pressure washer
on a level surface.
2. Stop engine if running.
3. Let engine cool for several minutes to allow the
crankcase pressure to equalise.
4. Thoroughly clean around the oil fill plug & dipstick.
5. Remove oil fill plug & dipstick and wipe it clean.
6. Select the proper engine oil as explained in
Engine Oil Specification.
7. Using the supplied oil bottle and funnel tip,
slowly add engine oil to the engine as shown in
Figure 26. Stop frequently to check the level to
avoid overfilling.
