3. Refuel carefully to avoid spilling fuel. Do not fill the fuel tank
completely. It may be necessary to lower the fuel level
depending on operating conditions. After refueling, tighten the
fuel filler cap securely.
Keep gasoline away from appliance pilot lights, barbecues, electric
appliances, power tools, etc.
Spilled fuel is not only a fire hazard, it causes environmental
damage. Wipe up spills immediately.

ENGINE OIL

Oil is a major factor affecting performance and service life.
Use 4-stroke automotive detergent oil.

Recommended Oil

Use 4-stroke motor oil that meets or exceeds the requirements for
API service category SJ or later (or equivalent). Always check the
API service label on the oil container to be sure it includes the
letters SJ or later (or equivalent).

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE

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 indicated range.

Oil Level Check

Check the engine oil level with the engine stopped and in a level
position.
1. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe it clean.
2. Insert the oil filler cap/dipstick into the oil filler neck as shown,
but do not screw it in, then remove it to check the oil level.
3. If the oil level is near or below the lower limit mark on the
dipstick, fill with the recommended oil (see page 8) to the upper
limit mark (bottom edge of the oil fill hole). Do not overfill.
4. Reinstall the oil filler cap/dipstick.

Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine
damage. This type of damage is not covered by the
Distributor's Limited Warranty.
The Oil Alert system (applicable types) will automatically stop
the engine before the oil level falls below the safe limit.
However, to avoid the inconvenience of an unexpected
shutdown, always check the engine oil level before startup.

Oil Change

Drain the used oil when the engine is warm. Warm oil drains
quickly and completely.
1. Place a suitable container below the engine to catch the used oil,
then remove the oil filler cap/dipstick, oil drain plug and sealing
washer.
2. Allow the used oil to drain completely, then reinstall the oil drain
plug and a new sealing washer, and tighten the oil drain plug
securely.
Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible
with the environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed
container to your local recycling center or service station for
reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash, pour it on the ground,
or pour it down a drain.
3. With the engine in a level position, fill with the recommended oil
(see page 7) to the upper limit mark (bottom edge of the oil fill
hole).
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine
damage. This type of damage is not covered by the
Distributor's Limited Warranty.
The Oil Alert system (applicable types) will automatically stop
the engine before the oil level falls below the safe limit.
However, to avoid the inconvenience of an unexpected
shutdown, fill to the upper limit, and check the oil level
regularly.
