Checking the Engine-Oil Level
The ideal time to check the engine-oil level is when the engine is cool or before you have
started the engine for the day. If you have already ran the engine, allow the oil to drain back
down to the sump for at least 10 minutes before you check the engine-oil level.
1. Shut off the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
2. Position the machine so that the engine is level, and clean the area around the oil-fill
tube

3. Remove the dipstick by rotating it counterclockwise.
4. Remove the dipstick and wipe the end clean.
5. Insert the dipstick fully into the oil-fill tube, but do not thread it in.
6. Remove the dipstick and check the engine-oil level.
7. If the engine-oil level is incorrect, add or drain oil to correct the level.
Note: If the oil level is near or below the lower level mark on the dipstick, add only
enough of the specified oil to raise the level to the upper limit mark
(bottom edge of
the oil fill hole)
