VISCOSITY-AMBIENT TEMPERATURE CHART
1. Refer to Viscosity-Ambient Temperature Chart above for correct
viscosity.
2. Remove dipstick.
3. Slowly add recommended oil, see specifications for oil capacity.
NOTE: If the oil is added too quickly, it will overflow and appear
to be full.
See under Maintenance for instructions.
TO ADD FUEL
WARNING: Risk of explosion or fire. Gasoline vapor is highly
flammable. Refuel outdoors only in well-ventilated areas. Do not
refuel or check gasoline level while the engine is running. Do not
store, spill or use gasoline near an open flame, a source of sparks
(such as welding) or near operating electrical equipment.
1. Remove fuel cap (A).

B
2. Add fresh, clean, regular unleaded gasoline
with a minimum of 86 octane to the fuel
tank (B). Do not fill above the shoulders
on the debris screen (P) as shown. NOTE:
The debris screen protects the engine from
dirt and debris, only remove screen when
cleaning. See
under Maintenance for instructions.
NOTE: Do not mix oil with gasoline.
3. Replace the fuel cap on the tank. Turn the
P
cap clockwise until it stops.
OXYGENATED FUELS
Some conventional gasolines are blended with alcohol or an ether
compound. These gasolines are collectively referred to as oxygen-
ated fuels. To meet clean air standards, some areas of the United
States and Canada use oxygenated fuels to help reduce emis-
sions.
If you use an oxygenated fuel, be sure it is unleaded and meets the
86 minimum octane rating requirements. Before using an oxygen-
atedfuel,trytoconfirmthefuel’scontents.Somestates/provinces
required this information to be posted on the pump. The following are
the EPA approved percentages of oxygenates:
10% by volume. You may use
gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol by volume. Gasoline contain-
ing ethanol may be marketed under the name gasohol.
CAUTION: Risk of property damage. DO NOT use E85 fuel.
15% by volume. You may use
gasoline containing up to 15% MTBE by volume.
5% by volume. You may use
gasoline containing up to 5% methanol by volume as long as it also
