Pre Start Inspection and Operation
3.2
Do the following pre-start service checks:
1. Check condition of all warning and instructional decals. Replace any damaged
decals with genuine Morbark replacement decals.
2. Check engine oil:
• Make sure that the engine is OFF.
• Pull out the dipstick and look for both the full and add oil lines (Item 1, Figure 3–1)
indicated by the letters “F” and “A”. The correct oil level is between those two lines.
Figure 3-1 Engine Oil Level Check
• If the engine oil level is below the add line, indicated by the letter “A” on the dipstick,
carefully add the proper amount of oil through the engine oil ller.
It is important to add the correct type of engine oil as stated in the engine manual.
NOTE: Make sure to reinstall and secure the oil ller cap.
Figure 3-2 Filler Cap
NOTE: Extremely dusty or dirty working conditions may require more frequent
checking, lling and/or changing of engine oil.
• After lling the oil, wait a few minutes and check the oil level again.
Make sure to securely reinstall the dipstick into the dipstick tube before starting the
engine.
