REFUELING
Recommended Fuel
Unleaded gasoline
U.S. Pump octane rating 86 or higher
Except U.S. Research octane rating 91 or higher
Pump octane rating 86 or higher
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline with a pump
octane rating of 86 or higher (a research octane rating of 91 or higher).
Refuel in a well ventilated area with the engine stopped. If the engine has
been running, allow it to cool first. Never refuel the engine inside a
building where gasoline fumes may reach flames or sparks.
You may use unleaded gasoline containing no more than 10% ethanol
(E10) or 5% methanol by volume. In addition, methanol must contain
cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors. Use of fuels with content of ethanol
or methanol greater than shown above may cause starting and/or
performance problems. It may also damage metal, rubber, and plastic
parts of the fuel system. Engine damage or performance problems that
result from using a fuel with percentages of ethanol or methanol greater
than shown above are not covered under the Warranty.
If your equipment will be used on an infrequent or intermittent basis,
please refer to the fuel section of the STORING YOUR ENGINE chapter (see
page 11) for additional information regarding fuel deterioration.
Never use gasoline that is stale, contaminated, or mixed with oil.
Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive.
You can be burned or seriously injured when handling fuel.
• Stop the engine and let it cool before handling fuel.
• Keep heat, sparks, and flame away.
• Handle fuel only outdoors.
• Keep away from your vehicle.
• Wipe up spills immediately.
Fuel can damage paint and some types of plastic. Be careful not to spill fuel
when filling your fuel tank. Damage caused by spilled fuel is not covered
under the Distributor's Limited Warranty.
Refuel carefully to avoid spilling fuel. After refueling, tighten the fuel tank
cap securely.
Keep gasoline away from appliance pilot lights, barbecues, electric
appliances, power tools, etc.
Spilled fuel is not only a fire hazard, it causes environmental damage.
Wipe up spills immediately.
ENGINE OIL
Oil is a major factor affecting performance and service life.
Use 4-stroke automotive detergent oil.
Recommended Oil
Use 4-stroke motor oil that
meets or exceeds the
requirements for API service
category SJ or later (or
equivalent). Always check the
API service label on the oil
container to be sure it includes
the letters SJ or later (or
equivalent).
SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general use. Other viscosities shown in
the chart may be used when the average temperature in your area is
within the indicated range.
Oil Level Check
Check the engine oil level with the engine stopped and in a level
position.
1. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe it clean.
2. Insert the oil filler cap/dipstick into the oil filler neck, but do not screw
it in, then remove it to check the oil level.
3. If the oil level is near or below the lower limit mark on the dipstick, fill
with the recommended oil to the upper limit mark. Do not overfill.
4. Reinstall the oil filler cap/dipstick.
OIL FILLER CAP/DIPSTICK
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage. This type
of damage is not covered by the Distributor's Limited Warranty.
