CHECKING / FILLING
IMPORTANT: Engine crankcase oil must be checked at intervals specified in
Maintenance Schedule. It is normal for an engine to use a certain amount of oil in the
process of lubricating and cooling the engine. The amount of oil consumed is greatly
dependent upon engine speed, with consumption being highest at WOT and
decreasing substantially as engine speed is reduced.
5. Check engine oil daily before first start-up.
CAUTION
Avoid possible injury, or damage to oil dipstick and internal engine components.
Do NOT remove crankcase oil dipstick when engine is running. Stop the engine
completely before removing or inserting dipstick.
If it becomes necessary to check oil level during operation, stop the engine and allow
approximately 10 minutes for oil to drain into pan.
6. Remove oil dipstick. Wipe clean and install into dipstick tube.
7. Remove dipstick and observe oil level. Oil must be between marks on dipstick.
