Checking Oil
NOTICE
The engine was shipped from the factory without oil. Before
you start the engine, make sure that you add oil according
to the instructions in this manual. If you start the engine
without oil, it will be damaged beyond repair and will not be
covered under the warranty.
Use Briggs & Stratton® Synthetic 5W-30 Warranty Certified
oil for best performance. Other high-quality detergent oils
are acceptable if classified for service SF, SG, SH, SJ or
higher. Do not use additives.
1. Put the unit on a level surface.
2. Remove unwanted material from the oil fill area.
3. Remove the oil dipstick (A, Figure 3) and clean it with a
cloth.
4. Install and tighten the dipstick. Then, remove it again, and
check the oil level. Make sure that the oil level touches
the top of the full indicator (C).
5. Slowly add oil into the engine oil fill (B). Do not overfill.
6. Wait one minute, and then check the oil level.
7. When the oil level touches the top of the full indicator (C),
install and tighten the dipstick.

Adding Fuel
Fuel must have these requirements:
• Clean unleaded gasoline
• A minimum of 87 octane / 87 AKI (90 RON)
• Up to 10% ethanol is acceptable
NOTICE
Do not use unapproved gasolines, such as E15 and E85.
Do not mix oil in gasoline or modify the engine to run on
alternate fuels. Use of unapproved fuels will cause engine
damage that will not be covered under warranty.
At altitudes over 5,000 feet (1524 meters), a minimum 85
octane / 85 AKI (89 RON) gasoline is acceptable. To remain
emissions compliant, high altitude adjustment is required.
Operation without this adjustment will cause decreased
performance, increased fuel consumption, and increased
emissions. See an authorized service dealer for high altitude
adjustment information. Operation at altitudes below 2,500
feet (762 meters) with the high altitude adjustment is not
recommended.
