ASSEMBLY
HOW TO PREPARE THE ENGINE
Fill With Oil
This Edger was shipped with a 20 ounce
container of SAE30 motor oil. Add this oil to
the engine before operating. To fill the crank­
case, remove the oil fill cap/dipstick and add
the SAE30 motor oil. DO NOT OVERFILL.
NOTE: The engine may contain a small
amount of oil. When adding oil, frequently
insert the oil fill cap/dipstick and check
the amount of oil in the engine. DO NOT
OVERFILI.
on Recommendations
Only use high quality detergent oil rated with
API service classification SG. Select the oil's
SAE viscosity grade according to your ex­
pected operating temperature. Although mul­
ti-viscosity oils {5W30, 10W30, etc.) improve
starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity
oils will result in increased oil consumption
when used above 32 degrees. Check the
engine oil level more frequently to avoid pos­
sible engine damage from running the en­
gine low on oil.

How To Add The Engine Oil
1. Put the Edger on a level surface.
2. Remove the oil fill cap (Figure 5).
3. Slowly fill the engine crankcase. DO NOT
OVERFILL.
How To Fill With Gasoline
Make sure that the gasoline container is
clean and free from dust or other foreign ma­
terial. Never use gasoline that could be stale
from long periods of storage.
1. Remove the fuel cap.
2. Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh, un­
leaded grade automotive gasoline.
A WARNING: Always use a safety
fuel container. Do not smoke
when adding the fuel mixture to
the engine. When inside an enclosure,
do not fill the fuel tank. Before you add
the fuel mixture, stop the engine. Let the
engine cool for several minutes.
NOTE: ENGINES WHICH ARE CERTIFIED
TO COMPLY WITH CALIFORNIA AND US
EPA EMISSION REGULATIONS FOR
ULGE ENGINES, are certified to operate
on regular unleaded gasoline. Include the
following emission control system(s):
EM, TWC (if so equipped). Include any
user adjustable features - therefore no
other adjustments are needed.
