HOW TO PREPARE THE ENGINE
Fill With Oil
This Edger was shipped with a 20 ounce
container of SAE30 motor oil. Add this oil to
the engine before operating. To fill the crank-
case, remove the oil fill cap/dipstick and add
the SAE30 motor oil DO NOT OVERFILL.
How To Add The Engine Oil
1. Put the Edger on a level surface.
2. Remove the oil fill cap (Figure 5).
3. Slowly fill the engine crankcase. DO NOT
OVERFILL.
NOTE: The engine may contain a small
amount of oil. When adding oil, frequently
insert the oil fill cap/dipstick and check
the amount of oil in the engine. DO NOT
OVERFILl.
Oil Recommendations
Only use high quality detergent oil rated with
API service classification SG. SeIect the oil's
SAE viscosity grade according to your ex-
pected operating temperature. Although mul-
ti-viscosity oiIs (5w3g, lOW30, etc.) improve
starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity
oils will result in increased oil consumption
when used above 32 degrees. Check the
engine oil level more frequently to avoid pos-
sible engine damage from running the en-
gine low on oil.
