Carburetor Adjustment

The carburetor is low emission and is equipped with a non-adjustable idle mixture valve. If adjustment is needed contact an authorized
service representative.

Oil Recommendations

Do not use special additives.
Outdoor temperatures determine the proper oil viscosity for the engine. Use the chart to select the best viscosity for the outdoor
temperature range expected.
Note:
*
Below 40°F (4°C) the use of SAE 30 will result in hard starting.
** Above 80°F the use of 10W-30 may cause increased oil consumption. Check oil level more frequently.
