Filling the Engine with Oil
No Parts Required
Procedure
Your machine does not come with oil in the engine, but it
does come with a bottle of oil.
Important: Before starting the engine, fill the engine
with oil.
Note: The bottle of oil may contain more oil than the engine
requires. Do not overfill or under fill the engine.
Max fill: 0.60 L (20 oz), type: automotive detergent oil with
an API service classification of SJ, SL, or higher.
Use
Figure 7
below to select the best oil viscosity for the
outdoor temperature range expected.

3. Unscrew the oil-fill cap and remove it.
4. With the machine in the operating position, carefully
pour oil into the crankcase. Wait 3 minutes for the oil
to settle and add enough to bring it to the point of
overflow. There should be very little, if any, oil left in
the bottle.
Note: You may tip the machine forward (handle up)
to make adding oil easier. Remember to return the
machine to the operating position before checking the
oil level.
Important: Do not tip the machine all the way
forward onto its nose, or fuel may leak out of the
machine.
5. Screw the oil-fill cap into the oil-fill hole and tighten it
securely.
