WARNING! Use extreme care when handling
gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable and the
vapors are explosive. Never fuel the machine
indoors or while the engine is hot or running.
Extinguish cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other
sources of ignition.
WARNING! Always keep hands and feet clear of
equipment moving parts. Do not use a pressurized
starting fluid. Vapors are flammable.
Clean around fuel fill before removing cap to fuel.
A fuel level indicator is located in the fuel tank. Fill tank
until fuel reaches the fuel level indictor, Fig. 3-3. Be careful
not to overfill.

Adding Oil
_hl AUTION: The engine may be shipped with a small
amount oil in the engine. You must be sure to fill the
engine with oil between the high and low marks on
the dipstick before operating. Running the engine
with insufficient oil can cause serious engine
damage and void the engine warranty.
1. Place the snow thrower on a flat, level surface.
2.
Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe the dipstick
clean. See Fig. 3-4.
Figure 3-4
NOTE: Do not screw in the dipstick when checking the oil
level.
3. Slowly add oil until the oil level registers between high
(H) and low (L), Fig. 3-4. Refer to the Engine Maintenance
section for the correct oil viscosity and engine oil capacity.
NOTE: Do not overfill. Overfilling the engine with oil may result
in the engine smoking, hard starting or spark plug fouling.
