including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.
Pre-Start Checks
Inspect engine and equipment looking for damaged, loose, and missing parts before set up 
and starting.  If any problems are found, do not use equipment until fixed properly.
Checking and Filling Engine Oil
NOTICE:  Your Warranty is VOID if the engine’s 
crankcase is not properly filled with oil before 
each use.  Before each use, check the oil level.  
Do not run the engine with low or no engine oil.  
Running the engine with no or low engine oil 
WILL permanently damage the engine.
1.  Make sure the engine is stopped and is level.
2.  Close the Fuel Valve.
3.  Clean the top of the Dipstick and the area around it.  
Remove the Dipstick by threading it counterclockwise, 
and wipe it off with a clean lint free rag.
4. 
Full level
Full level
Reinsert the Dipstick without threading it in and 
remove it to check the oil level.  The oil level 
should be up to the full level as shown above.
5.  If the oil level is at or below the low mark add the 
appropriate type of oil until the oil level is at the 
proper level.  SAE 10W-30 oil is recommended 
for general use.  (The SAE Viscosity Grade chart 
on page 15 in the Service section shows other 
viscosities to use in different average temperatures.)

The engine will be permanently damaged.
