a major factor affecting performance
and
service life.
Use
4-stroke automotive engine oil.
SAE

recommended
for
general
use.
Other viscosities
shown in the chart may
be
used
when the average temperature in
your area
is
within the recommended
range.

AIR
FILTER
INSPECTION
Remove
the
air
cleaner cover and inspect
the
filter.
Clean
or
replace
dirty
filter
elements. Always replace damaged
filter
elements.
If

an
oil-bath air cleaner, also check the
oil level.
A

filter
will restrict air
flow
to
the carburetor, reducing
engine performance.
If
you operate the engine in very dusty
areas,
clean the air
filter
more often than specified in the MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULE.

WARNING
Operating
the
engine
without
an
air
filter,
or
with a
damaged
air
filter, will allow
dirt
to
enter the engine,
causing rapid engine
wear.
This type
of
damage
is
not
covered
by
the Distributor's Limited Warranty.
