A
Engine Oil
CAUTION
Engine shipped without oil. Failure to add oil will result in
serious engine damage.
A bottle of engine oil is included with your tiller. Refer to the
chart on the right for alternative oil types to use at different
temperatures. Always use a high quality detergent oil
classified "For Service, SG, SH, SJ" or higher. Do NOT use
special additives.
CAUTION
Always use recommended oil type. Using dirty oil or
incorrect oil type such as 2-stroke engine oil will shorten
engine life.
NOTE: Engine Oil Capacity is 20 oz. (0.6 L).
HOW TO CHECK OIL LEVEL AND FILL TO PROPER LEVEL
WARNING
Before checking oil, make sure engine is off, and spark
plug wire has been disconnected from spark plug.
1. Place the tiller on a level surface and make sure the
depth regulator lever is set so the main frame of the tiller
is level. (See Figure 6)
2. Remove the oil fill cap/dipstick and wipe clean with
cloth. (See Figure 6)
3. Insert dipstick into fill spout but do NOT screw in.
Remove dipstick and check oil level.
4. When oil level is full, the oil will be at upper limit on dip
stick. If oil level is near or below the lower limit, oil must
be added. (See Figure 7)
5. Add oil slowly until the oil level reaches the upper limit
of the dipstick. Use a funnel or nozzle to reduce spillage.
CAUTION
Frequently check oil level while filling. DO NOT OVERFILL.
DO NOT UNDER FILL. Running engine at improper oil
level will seriously damage engine.
6. Replace and tighten dipstick.
7. Clean up any spilled oil.
NOTE: The transmission comes from the factory with the
proper amount and type of gear oil.
