BEFORE STARTING
ENGINE
ADD OIL
Your lawnmower
is shipped
without
oil in
the engine. For type and grade of oil to
use, see "ENGINE"
in the Maintenance
section
of this manual.
A CAUTION:
DO NOT overfill engine with
oil, or it will smoke on startup.
1.
Be sure lawnmower
is level and area
around
oil fill is clean.
2.
Remove
oil dipstick
from oil fill spout.
Make sure that rim of spout is clean.
3. You receive a container
of oil with the
unit.
Slowly pour 3/4 (15 oz.) of the oil
from the container
down the oil fill
spout into the engine.
4. Wait one minute to allow oil to settle.
Insert and tighten dipstick,
then
remove it to check oil level.
5.
Continue
adding small amounts
of oil
and rechecking
the dipstick
until it
reads full.
DO NOT overfill,
or engine
will smoke on startup.
6. Always
be sure to retighten
oil dipstick
before
starting
engine.
• Check oil level before each use.
Add
oil if needed.
Fill to full line on dipstick.
• Change
the oil after every 25 hours of
operation
or each season.
You may
need to change
the oil more often
under dusty, dirty conditions.
ADD GASOLINE
• Fill fuel tank to bottom of tank filler neck.
Do not overfill.
Use fresh, clean,
regular unleaded
gasoline with a
minimum of 87 octane.
Do not mix oil
with gasoline.
Purchase fuel in
quantities that can be used within 30
days to assure fuel freshness.
A CAUTION:
Wipe off any spilled oil or
fuel.
Do not store, spill or use gasoline
near an open flame.
A CAUTION:
Alcohol blended fuels
(called gasohol or using ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture which
leads to separation
and formation of acids
during storage.
Acidic gas can damage
the fuel system of an engine while in
storage.
To avoid engine problems, the
fuel system should be emptied before
storage of 30 days or longer.
Drain the
gas tank, start the engine and let it run
until the fuel lines and carburetor are
empty. Use fresh fuel next season.
See
Storage Instructions for additional
information.
Never use engine or carbu-
retor cleaner products in the fuel tank or
permanent
damage
may occur.
