Filling engine oil
The oil filler opening is on the valve cover. Never fill
above the “FULL” mark (upper notch on the dipstick).
Fill the oil slowly. Reinstall the dipstick before starting
the engine. Start and run the engine at idling speed for
approx. 30 seconds. Turn off the engine. Wait 30 seconds
and check the oil level. If necessary fill so that the oil
comes up to the “FULL” mark on the dipstick.
Changing the Engine Oil
The engine oil should be changed the first time after
25 hours running time. It should then be changed after
every 250 hours of running time.
Change the oil when the engine is at a temperature
hot enough for any dirt to flow out easier.
WARNING:
O
il filler opening
Engine oil can be very hot if it is drained directly
after stopping the engine. Allow the engine to cool
somewhat first.
