CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
The importance of checking and maintaining the proper oil level in the

1. Stop the engine and allow oil to drain into the crankcase.
CAUTION:
damage to the unit, always maintain the proper oil level in
the crankcase. Never operate the unit with the oil level
below the bottom of the dipstick.
2. Place the unit on a flat, level surface to get a proper oil level
reading.
3. Keep dirt, grass clippings and other debris out of the engine.
Clean the area around the oil fill plug/dipstick before removing it.
4. Remove the oil fill plug/dipstick and wipe off oil. Reinsert it all the
way back in.
5. Remove the oil fill plug/dipstick and check the oil level. Oil should be
up to the top of the dipstick (Fig. 19).

recheck (Fig. 20). Repeat this procedure until the oil level reaches
the top of the dipstick.
NOTE: Do not overfill the unit.
