WARNING
Health hazard
Most used liquids from this machine contain small amounts of materials that
can cause cancer and other health problems if inhaled, ingested, or left in
contact with skin for prolonged periods of time.
► Take steps to avoid inhaling or ingesting used liquids.
► Wash skin thoroughly after exposure to used liquids.
The viscosity of the engine oil is an important factor when determining the
correct engine oil to use in your machine. Use an engine oil of appropriate
viscosity based on the expected outside air temperature. See the table be-
low.
Oil capacity: 3.4 L (3.6 qt)
The engine oil must meet the API CD, CF, CF-4, CI-4, ACEA E-3, E-E, E-5,
or JASO DH-1 standard.

In particularly hot environments where ambient temperatures stay near and
over 38°C (100°F), use SAE 15W-40 engine oil.
