OIL

•  Use a high quality detergent oil classified “For Service SF, SG, SH, SJ” or higher.
•  Do not use special additives.
•  Choose a viscosity according to the following table.

* CAUTION: Air cooled engines run hotter than automotive engines. The use of non-synthetic
multi-viscosity oils (5W-30, 10W-30, etc.) in temperatures above 40 deg. F (4 deg. C) will result
in higher than normal oil consumption. When using a multi-viscosity oil, check oil level more
frequently.

** CAUTION: SAE 30 oil, if used below 40 deg. F (4 deg. C), will result in hard starting and
possible engine bore damage due to inadequate lubrication.
