FOUR CYCLE ENGINE
The engine is an air cooled, 4-stroke, OHV, single cylinder gasoline engine. It has a pressure fed lubrication positive
displacement oil pump with a cartridge type full flow oil filter and a counter rotating balance shaft.
NOTICE: The engine uses more oil during the first hours of operation, than after the internal parts are run-in.
As the run-in process occurs, oil use will gradually decrease until it stabilizes.

CHECKTHE OIL LEVEL
Check the engine oil at the intervals indicated in the SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE CHART on page 36.
Wear protective glovestoprevent scalding fromhot engine oil.
Check the engine oil level when the engine is warm and the vehicle parked on level surface.
1. Turn key switch to the OFF position and engage the parking brake.
2. Allow oil to drain into crankcase.
3. Wipe the top of the engine clean with a cloth to remove debris that could fall in the engine.
4. Remove the dipstick and wipe off the entire length with a clean lint-free cloth.
5. To get an accurate level reading, wipe oil from the dipstick and insert back into the opening.
6. Remove the dipstick again and check the level. The oil level must be in the area between L and H (in the cross-
hatch) on the dipstick.
7. The engine can be operated safely as long as oil is within the safe
operating range as indicated on the dipstick.
NOTICE: The lack of oil or low oil level can damage the engine. Do not
operate vehicle if oil level is below the safe area indicated on
the dipstick.
8. If the oil level is below the L line, add engine oil into the dipstick hole
until the level is between L and H.
NOTICE: Excessive oil can damage the engine. Oil expands as it gets hot, so do not overfill.
9. If the oil level is above the H line, pump out the excessive oil with a siphon pump.
10. Replace the dipstick.
