ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATIONS
Oil is a major factor a ecting performance and service life.
Use a standard 4-stroke automotive detergent oil SAE 10W-30, API SE or SF
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 recommended range.
The SAE oil viscosity and service classi cation are in the API label on the oil container. We
recommend that you use API SERVICE Category SE or SF oil.
