WARNING

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Read the

Safety Precautions in the front of this man-

ual and the engine instruction manual before working

on this machine.

Keep all equipment safety guards, covers, and devices

in position and in good repair. Keep hands, hair, cloth-

ing, and tools away from gears, fans, and all other

moving parts when starting, operating, or repairing the

equipment.

Routine Maintenance

•

At the end of each day’s use, refill the fuel tank to

minimize moisture condensation in the tank.

Running out of fuel tends to draw dirt into the fuel

system. Also, check the crankcase oil level and

add oil if indicated.

Make certain that the oil filler cap is securely tight-

ened after checking or adding oil. If the cap is not

tight, oil consumption can increase significantly

which may be evidenced by white smoke coming

from the exhaust.

• OIL - Maintenance schedule for changing the oil and

oil filter after break-in :

The above schedule is for normal operating conditions.

More frequent oil changes are required with dusty, high

temperature and other severe operating conditions.

Refer to the maintenance section of the Engine

Owner's Manual for more information.

NOTE: Engine life will be reduced if the oil and oil

fil-

ter are not changed according to the manufac-

turer’s recommendation.

ENGINE OIL CHANGE

Drain the oil while the engine is warm to assure rapid

and complete draining.

• Remove the oil filler cap and dipstick. Remove the

yellow cap from the oil drain valve and attach the flex-

ible drain tube supplied with the machine. Push in

and twist the drain valve counterclockwise. Pull the

valve out and drain the oil into a suitable container.

• Close the drain valve by pushing in and twisting

clockwise. Replace the yellow cap.

• Refill to the upper limit mark on the dipstick with the

recommended oil. Tighten the oil filler cap securely.
