colder 32°F warmer
5W30 _ SAE30
Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30, etc.) improve
starting in coldweather, these multi-viscosity oilswill result
in increased oil consumption when used above 32°F.
Check your engine oil level more frequently to avoid possi-
ble damage from running low on oil. Oil sump capacity is
20 ounces.
• Position pressure washer so engine is level.

TER, FUEL HOSE OR TANK DURING STORAGE° ALSO,
EXPERIENCE INDICATES THAT 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 SYS-
TEM OF AN ENGINE WHILE IN STORAGE. TO AVOID
ENGINE PROBLEMS, THE FUEL SYSTEM SHOULD BE
EMPTIED BEFORE STORAGE OF 30 DAYS OR
LONGER. SEE "STORAGE" ON PAGE 17. NEVER USE
