BEFORE START OF OPERATION

INSPECTION AND REFILL OF ENGINE OIL
Filling the engine crankcase with oil requires a level working platform of sufficient size and appropriate height. As an alternative, the transmission
drive shaft can be securely mounted in a suitable bench vice.
– Perform the following procedure, with the engine cooled down.
– Assure that the engine is horizontal position.
– Do not thread the oil gauge into oil filler to check oil level.
– Check if the oil level is between the lower or upper limit on the oil gauge.
– If the oil level is below the lower limit, add oil.
– Before filling oil, make sure that the oil drain screw is secured thoroughly.
– You may need to refill oil approximately every 10 operating hours (every 10 refueling).
– If the oil changes in color or mixes with dirt, replace it with new one.
Recommended oil:
Oil volume:
NOTE:
• If the engine is not positioned horizontal, an inaccurate indication of oil level may occur and oil may be overfilled. Filling oil above the upper
limit may cause oil contamination or white smoke.
Replacement of oil: "Oil gauge"
– Remove dust or dirt near the oil refill port.
– Keep the detached oil gauge free from sand or dust. Otherwise, any sand or dust adhering to the oil cap may result in problems with irregular
oil circulation or wear on the engine parts.
