ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATION
1. Your Jiffy 4G Ice Drill is powered by a 4-stroke engine. You must
add six ounces of Jiffy 4-Cycle 0W40 Synthetic Oil (Part No.
4288) before starting the engine.
2. Change engine oil at the end of each ice fishing season.
3. Before adding oil to the engine, attach ice drill. Lay the unit down.
Elevate the drill assembly, so the drill assembly is parallel to the
ground, as shown below.
4. Turn oil-fill cap counter-clockwise and remove cap from oil-fill
opening. Proper oil level should come to the middle of the threads
in the lower part of the oil fill hole, as pictured above.
5. Slowly pour oil into the engine. Make sure you pour all six ounces
of oil into the engine.
6. Replace oil fill cap and turn clockwise until it is fastened securely.
7. Check oil level prior to each fishing trip. Add oil as needed. Never
exceed recommended oil level. Over-filling can result in oil
leakage or engine damage.
8. When changing oil, remove oil-fill plug from engine and turn unit
over so oil can be poured into a proper oil disposal container.
After engine oil has been drained, repeat steps 3 – 6 above.
FUELING
1. Gasoline vapor pressure may build up inside of the fuel tank of
the engine depending on weather conditions, the venting
system of the tank, and the fuel used. To reduce the risk of
injury from escaping gas fumes and vapor, remove the fuel cap
on your drill slowly to release pressure build-up.
+ NEVER FILL FUEL TANK INDOORS, WHILE ENGINE IS
RUNNING, OR WHILE ENGINE IS HOT.
+ NEVER FILL FUEL TANK COMPLETELY. FILL TANK TO ½
INCH BELOW BOTTOM OF FILLER NECK TO PROVIDE
SPACE FOR FUEL EXPANSION. WIPE ANY FUEL
SPILLAGE FROM ENGINE AND EQUIPMENT BEFORE
STARTING ENGINE.
CLEAN, FRESH, WINTER BLEND, UNLEADED
REGULAR FUEL ONLY. USE OF FUEL WITH THE
LOWEST ETHANOL PERCENTAGE IS
RECOMMENDED.
FUEL MUST BE FRESH AND CLEAN. NEVER USE FUEL LEFT
OVER FROM LAST SEASON OR STORED FOR LONG
PERIODS. DO NOT USE FUEL CONTAINING METHANOL
(WOOD ALCOHOL). DO NOT USE SUMMER BLEND FUEL.
NOTE: THE USE OF ALTERNATIVE FUELS SUCH AS E85, E20 OR
E15 ARE NOT RECOMMENDED FOR USE IN JIFFY ICE
DRILLS. ALTERNATIVE FUELS WITH HIGH ALCOHOL
CONTENT CAN CAUSE HARD STARTING, POOR
PERFORMANCE, AND INTERNAL ENGINE DAMAGE. NEVER
STORE GASOLINE INDOORS OR IN ENCLOSED, POORLY
VENTILATED ENCLOSURES, WHERE FUEL FUMES MAY
REACH AN OPEN FLAME, SPARK OR PILOT LIGHT AS ON A
FURNACE, WATER HEATER, CLOTHES DRYER, ETC.
DAMAGE AND/OR PERFORMANCE PROBLEMS THAT WILL
OCCUR FROM USE OF FUELS, OTHER THAN THOSE LISTED
IN THE MANUAL WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED WARRANTY.
CHECK THE FOLLOWING BEFORE STARTING YOUR DRILL
1. Be sure spark plug wire is ATTACHED to spark plug.
2. Be sure ignition switch is in the RUN (ON) Position.
3. Inspect the machine for proper condition and operation, paying special
attention to the throttle control assembly, RUN/STOP (ON/OFF) switch,
and drilling assembly.
+ TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY FROM THE TURNING DRILL
ASSEMBLY OR FROM REACTIVE FORCES, THE THROTTLE
ASSEMBLY AND RELATED MECHANISM MUST MOVE FREELY
AND RETURN IMMEDIATELY TO THE IDLE POSITION WHEN
RELEASED.
+ NEVER OPERATE YOUR DRILL IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED,
IMPROPERLY ADJUSTED OR NOT COMPLETELY AND
SECURELY ASSEMBLED.
+ NEVER RUN ENGINE IN POORLY VENTILATED AREAS. ENGINE
EXHAUST CONTAINS CARBON MONOXIDE, AN ODORLESS
AND DEADLY GAS.
+ TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY FROM REACTIVE FORCES,
THE OPERATOR MUST HAVE A FIRM GRIP ON THE MACHINE
AND A GOOD FOOTHOLD BEFORE STARTING THE DRILL AND
OPENING THE THROTTLE.
+ KEEP HANDS, FEET, HAIR AND LOOSE CLOTHING AWAY
FROM ANY MOVING PARTS ON ENGINE AND EQUIPMENT.
+ WARNING – TEMPERATURE OF MUFFLER AND NEARBY
AREAS MAY EXCEED 150° F (65° C) AVOID THESE AREAS TO
AVOID BURNS OR OTHER INJURY.
