Oil Recommendations
We recommend the use of certied oil for best performance. Other high-quality detergent oils are
acceptable if classied for service SF, SG, SH, SJ or higher. DO NOT use special additives.
Outdoor temperatures determine the proper oil viscosity for the engine. Use the chart to select the
best viscosity for the outdoor temperature range expected.
• Below 40°F(4°C) the use of SAE 30 will result in hard starting.
• Above 80°F (27°C) the use of 10w30 may cause increased oil consumption. Check oil level
more frequently.

1. Make sure pressure washer is on a level surface.
2. Remove oil dipstick and wipe dipstick with clean cloth. Replace and tighten dipstick. Remove
and check oil level.
3. Verify oil is at FULL mark(top hole) on dipstick. Replace and tighten dipstick.
