PRIMARY MAINTENANCE
An engine must also have proper lubrication.
All engines use some oil. On 4-cycle engines,
CHECK OiL LEVEL BEFORE EACH START-UP.
Wipe area clean around the oil check plug or
dipstick opening to keep dirt from failing into
the engine when checking the oil. Always
check with the machine on a level sudece.
On engines with dipstick, keep the level up to,
but not over, the FULL mark. When adding oil,
allow time for all of the oil to flow down the fill
tube to prevent a false full reading when the
level could actually be low and result in engine
damage.
