ENGINE CARE
If major engine service or repair is required, contact
an authorized engine service center. The manufac-
turer of these engines has established an excellent
world-wide engine service organization. Engine ser-
vice is very likely available from a nearby authorized
dealer or distributor. Check the yellow pages of your
local telephone directory under “Engines-Gasoline”
for the closest engine repair center or ask the dealer
from whom you purchased the power plant.
1. Change the oil after the fi rst 20 hours of opera-
tion and 6 months or 100 hours thereafter under nor-
mal operating conditions. Change engine oil every
50 hours of operation if the engine is operated under
heavy load, or in high ambient temperatures.
a. Start the engine and warm it up, stop the engine
and remove the spark plug wire to prevent it
from accidently being started.
b. Remove oil drain bolt at base of the engine
and drain the oil into an approved container.
c. Replace oil drain bolt making sure the sealing
washer is in place..
d. With the engine in a level position, fi ll with new
oil. Refer to the table on page 6 for the proper
grade of oil.
NOTE: This engine requires 36 to 39 ounces of oil
if it is completely drained. Use caution when refi lling
the engine as some residual oil may have remained
in the engine. Always use the dipstick when fi lling the
engine with oil to prevent overfi lling.
e. Replace
fi ller plug.
f Start the engine up and warm it up.
h. After warming up the engine, recheck the oil
level and refi ll as necessary to bring it to the
proper level.
2. Checking the Oil Level: The oil level must al-
ways be checked before the engine is started. Take
care to remove any dirt or debris from around the
oil fi ll plug before removing. Be sure the oil level is
maintained. Fill to the “FULL” mark on the dipstick.
3. Air Filter Element: Clean ever 3 month or 50
hours Replace foam fi lter every 300 hours. Service
more often under dusty conditions.
WARNING: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Never start or run the engine with the air fi lter re-
moved.
a. Un-snap the air cleaner cover clips, remove the
air cleaner cover and remove the air fi lter ele-
ment.
b. Wash the element in a solution of household
detergent and warm water, then rinse thoroughly.
Or wash in a nonfl ammable or high fl ash point
solvent. Allow the element to dry thoroughly.
c. Soak the air fi lter element in clean engine oil
and squeeze out the excess oil. The engine will
smoke during initial start-up if too much oil is left
in the element.
