ENGINE MAINTENANCE
Engine Oil Change
Drain the oil while the engine is warm. Warm oil drains quickly and
completely.
1. Turn the fuel valve OFF. This will reduce the possibility of fuel
leakage (page 4).
2. Wipe the oil filler area clean, and then remove the oil filler
cap/dipstick.
3. Place a suitable container
next to the mower to catch
the used oil, and then tilt
the mower on its right side.
The used oil will drain
through the filler neck.
Allow the oil to drain
completely.
Please dispose of used
motor oil and the
containers in a manner
that is compatible with the environment. We suggest you take it 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.
4. Fill with the recommended oil
(page 6). Do not overfill.
Measure the oil level as
shown.
5. After changing the engine oil
and before starting the
engine, check the oil level
with the mower on a level
surface:
a. Remove the filler
cap/dipstick [1].
b. Wipe the dipstick clean.
c. Insert and remove the
dipstick without screwing
it into the filler neck.
Check the oil level shown
on the dipstick.
d. If the oil level is below the
low level mark [3], add oil
to reach the high limit
mark [2] on the dipstick.
Do not overfill. If the
engine is overfilled, the
excess oil may get
transferred to the air
cleaner housing and air cleaner filter.
NOTICE
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine
damage.
e. Screw in the filler cap/dipstick securely.
Air Cleaner Service
A properly maintained air filter will help prevent dirt from entering your
engine. Dirt entering the carburetor can be drawn into small passages
in the carburetor and cause premature engine wear. These small
passages can become blocked, causing starting or running problems.
Always use an air filter specified for your engine to ensure it seals and
performs as designed. You will need to clean the filter more frequently
if you operate the engine in very dusty conditions.
NOTICE
Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged filter, will
allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear. This type of
damage is not covered by the warranty.
1. Press down on the air cleaner cover [1] tabs, and then remove the
cover [2].
2. Remove the filter [3] from the air cleaner housing [4].
3. Inspect the filter, and replace it if it is damaged.
4. Clean the filter by tapping the filter several times on a hard surface
to remove dirt, or blow compressed air (not exceeding 207 kPa)
through the filter from the inside. Never try to brush off dirt;
brushing will force dirt into the fibers.
5. Wipe dirt from the inside of the air cleaner housing and cover,
using a moist rag. Be careful to prevent dirt from entering the air
duct [4] that leads to the carburetor.
6. Reinstall the filter and cover.
Spark Plug Service
Required spark plugs:
NOTICE
Incorrect spark plugs can cause engine damage.
For good performance, the spark plug [1] must be properly gapped
and free of deposits.
1. Disconnect the spark
[1] plug cap [2], and
remove any dirt from
around the spark plug
area.
