DANGER: OVERFILLING OIL CRANKCASE
MAY CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY. Check and maintain the proper oil
level in the crank case; 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.
