Checking the Oil Level
Check the oil level in the engine when the
machine is standing level and the engine is
stopped.
Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, and then
replace it.
The dipstick should be screwed into place.
Take the dipstick out again and read the oil
level.
The oil level should lie between the markings
on the dipstick. If the level is approaching the
“ADD” mark, fill the oil to the “FULL” mark on
the dipstick.
Never fill to above the “FULL” mark.
The oil is filled through the hole for the
dipstick.
API class SF, SG, SH, SJ or higher must be
used. Synthetic oil SAE 5W-30 or 10W-30 is
recommended at all temperatures. Mineral oil
SAE 5W-30, 10W-30 can be used between
-18 ˚C/0 ˚F and +5 ˚C/40 ˚F. At temperature
above +5 ˚C/40 ˚F single grade SAE 30 must
be used.
The engine holds 0.88 qt. (1.0 liters) of oil
excluding the filter, including filter 2 qt.
(1.9 liters).
