To
Check Engine Oil:
Pull out the dipstick and clean it
with a paper towel or cloth, then push it back in all the
way. Remove it again, keeping the tip lower.
When
to
Add
Oil:
If the oil is at or below
the
ADD
line, then you’ll need to add some
oil.
But
you must use
the right kind. This section explains what kind of
oil
to
use.
For crankcase capacity, see “Capacities and
Specifications” in the Index.

NOTICE:
Don’t add too much oil.
If
your engine has
so
much
oil
that the oil level gets above the
cross-hatched area that
shows
the proper
operating range, your engine could be damaged.
Use
the engine oil
fill
cap next to the
oil
dipstick to add
oil.
Just
fill
it
enough
to
put
the level somewhere
in
the
proper operating range. Push
the
dipstick all the way
back
in
when you’re through.
