High pull force
Handle locked in place
Engine must be resting on a at surface on the fuel tank
This position does not allow
for a proper oil level reading
and may cause overlling.
Oil Overll Warning
Do not overll! Adding too much
or too little oil may cause damage
to the engine and void the warranty.
Overlling may cause:
1. Hard starting or a locked piston
- caused by excess oil in the
combustion chamber.
2. Poor engine performance and loss
of power
3. Excessive smoke coming from
the exhaust and around the engine
while running.
4. Oil leaking form the carburettor/
aircleaner.
5. Oil leaking from the exhaust.
Corrective Action
If you suspect the engine is
overlled the following procedure
should remove the excess oil from
the crankcase and valve cover.
If the engine is overlled, oil will
enter the crankcase and it does
not simply pour out of the oil ll
opening. The excessive oil has
to be pumped out as the engine
runs. Checking the oil level and
draining any excess between
multiple 30 second running
intervals will bring the oil back
to the proper level.
1. Place the engine on a level
surface resting at on the fuel
tank and remove the oil ll cap/
dipstick. Use a catch basin for
any oil that overows from the
oil ll opening.
2. Replace the oil ll cap/
dipstick and run the engine
for approximately 30 seconds
then repeat step one. Continue
steps 1 & 2 until oil no longer
overows when the oil ll cap/
dipstick is removed.
3. Once the oil level is corrected
the engine may continue to
smoke while running for
several minutes while the
residual oil burns off.
