TIRE PRESSURE
Caution must be used when inflating a low tire to recommended pressure. Over inflating can cause tires to
explode. Rear tires should be 5 psi (0.34 bar). The front castor wheel should be 20psi (1.38 bar). Improper infla-
tion will reduce tire life considerably.
ENGINE
Change and add oil according to chart below. Do not overfill. Engine oil capacity is 2 quarts. We recommend
high-quality detergent oils classified 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.
SAE VISCOSITY GRADES
Use of multi-viscosity oils (10W-30, etc.) above 40° F (4° C) will result in high oil consumption and possible
engine damage. Check oil level more frequently if using these types of oils.
SAE 30 oil, if used below 40° F (4° C), will result in hard starting and possible engine bore damage due to inad-
equate lubrication.
