Adding Oil
1. Place the machine on a level surface and remove the
Dipstick (clean the end of the Dipstick with a rag)
(Figure 11).
2. Machines are shipped with no oil. Add 1/2 of the SAE
30 high detergent oil recommended by the engine
manufacturer and wait one minute for the oil to settle.
3. Replace the Dipstick all the way in and turn a quarter
turn clockwise to ensure an accurate reading and then
remove it to check the oil level.
4. If the oil level is low continue adding a few ounces of
oil at a time, rechecking the Dipstick until the oil
reaches the fill mark (Figure 12). Be careful not to
overfill.

Adding Gas
SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE, WAIT FOR ALL MOVING PARTS TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, REMOVE
SPARK PLUG WIRE, DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE, THEN WAIT 5 MINUTES BEFORE
PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE OR INSPECTION ON THE CHIPPER.
FILL THE GAS TANK OUTDOORS OR IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA, AWAY FROM SPARKS, OPEN FLAMES,
PILOT LIGHTS, HEAT, AND OTHER IGNITION SOURCES.
1. Remove the Gas Fill Cap and fill the Gas Tank with fresh, unleaded gas (with a minimum of 85
Octane) to approximately 1" to 1-1/2" below the top of the fill neck to allow for fuel expansion
(Figure 11). Be careful not to overfill and reinstall the Gas Fill Cap before starting the engine. See
your Engine Owner’s Manual for more detailed information.
NOTE: To refill the gas tank, turn the engine OFF and let the engine cool at least five minutes before
removing the gas fill cap.
