OIL & FUEL INFORMATION
WARNING:
OVERFILLING OIL CRANKCASE MAY CAUSE
SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY. Check and maintain the proper oil
level in the crankcase; it is important and cannot be
overemphasized. Check the oil before each use and change it as
needed. See Changing the Oil.
RECOMMENDED OIL TYPE
Using the proper type and weight of oil in the crankcase is extremely important.
Check the oil before each use and change the oil regularly. Failure to use the
correct oil, or using dirty oil, can cause premature engine wear and failure.
Use a high-quality SAE 30 weight oil of API (American Petroleum Institute)
service class SF, SG, SH.
ADDING OIL TO CRANKCASE:
INITIAL USE
NOTE:
This unit is shipped
without oil. In order to
avoid damage to the
unit, put oil in the
crankcase before
attempting to start the
unit.
The unit is supplied with one 3.04
fluid oz. (90 ml.) bottle of SAE 30
SF, SG, SH oil (Fig. 4).
NOTE:
Save the bottle of oil. It
can be used to measure
the correct amount
during future oil
changes. See Changing
the Oil.
1.
Unscrew the top of the bottle
of oil and remove the paper
seal covering the opening.
Replace the top. Next, cut the
tip off the funnel spout (Fig. 4).
2.
Place unit on a flat, level
surface.
3.
Remove the oil fill plug from the crankcase (Fig. 6).

Checking the Oil Level.
RECOMMENDED FUEL TYPE
Old fuel is the primary reason for
improper unit performance. Be
sure to use fresh, clean, unleaded gasoline.
NOTE:
Dispose of the old gasoline in accordance to Federal, State and
Local regulations.
NOTE:
This is a four cycle engine. In order to avoid damage to the unit, do
not mix oil with gasoline.
Definition of Blended Fuels
Today's fuels are often a blend of gasoline and oxygenates such as ethanol,
methanol or MTBE (ether). Alcohol-blended fuel absorbs water. As little as 1%
water in the fuel can make fuel and oil separate or form acids when stored.
Use fresh fuel (less than 60 days old), when using alcohol-blended fuel.
Using Blended Fuels
If choosing to use a blended fuel, or its use is unavoidable, follow
recommended precautions:
• Always use fresh unleaded gasoline
• Use the fuel additive STA-BIL® or an equivalent
• Drain tank and run the engine dry before storing unit
Using Fuel Additives
WARNING:
may explode. Always stop the engine and allow it to cool before
filling the fuel tank. Do not smoke while filling the tank. Keep
sparks and open flames at a distance from the area.
WARNING:
up any spilled fuel immediately. Avoid creating a source of ignition for
spilt fuel. Do not start the engine until fuel vapors dissipate.
The use of fuel additives, such as STA-BIL® Gas Stabilizer or an equivalent, will
inhibit corrosion and minimize the formation of gum deposits. Using a fuel additive
can keep fuel from forming harmful deposits in the carburetor for up to six (6)
months. Add 0.8 oz. (23 ml.) of fuel additive per gallon of fuel according to the
instructions on the fuel additive container. NEVER add fuel additives directly to the
unit's gas tank.
FUELING THE UNIT
WARNING:
spray. Never operate the unit without the fuel cap securely in place.
WARNING:
been proven that fuel containing greater than 15% ethanol will
likely damage this engine and void the warranty.
1.
Remove the fuel cap (Fig. 7).
2.
Place the gas container's
spout into the fill hole on the
fuel tank (Fig. 7) and fill the
tank.
NOTE:
Do not overfill the tank.
3.
Wipe up any gasoline that
may have spilled.
4.
Reinstall the fuel cap.
5.
Move the unit at least 30 ft.
(9.1 m) from the fueling
source and site before
starting the engine.
