Oil Recommendations
Using the proper type and weight of oil in the 
crankcase is extremely important. So is checking oil 
daily and changing oil regularly. Failure to use the 
correct oil, or using dirty oil, causes premature engine 
wear and failure.
Oil Type
Use high quality detergent oil of API (American 
Petroleum Institute) service class SG, SH, SJ 
or higher. Select the viscosity based on the air 
temperature at the time of operation.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Using other than service class SG, SH, 
SJ or higher oil or extending oil change 
intervals longer than recommended can 
cause engine damage.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Synthetic oils meeting the listed 
classifi cations may be used with oil 
changes performed at the recommended 
intervals. However to allow piston rings 
to properly seat, a new or rebuilt engine 
should be operated for at least 50 hours 
using standard petroleum based oil 
before switching to synthetic oil.
A logo or symbol on oil containers identifi es the API 
service class and SAE viscosity grade.
