OIL CHANGE
Drain and refill the crankcase at least every 25ihours of operation.
If possible, run engine just prior to changing oil-- the oil will flow more freely and carry
away a greater amount of contaminan .t when hot.
If the engine service is severe - (frequent stopping and starting, high or low operating
temperature) -
the crankcase should be drained more often to prevent the formation of
sludge or harmful deposits in the engine_
A CAUTION: Disengage power to attachment(s) and stop the en-
.. gine (motor) before making any repairs or adjustments_
IMPORTANT
,. When the crankcase is drained, refill with 4 measured pints (1.9 I) of oil.
2_ Operate the engine for a few minutes, allow sufficient time for the oil to run down off
the engine parts, then check the oil level with the dipstick.
3. This will prevent overfilling or underfilling the crankcase, either of which can be
detrimental to the engine service life and will give you false oil consumption records.
