Check the oil
The engine is equipped with an automatic shuto to protect
it from damage due to low oil. Nonetheless, you should check
the oil level of the engine before each use to ensure that the
engine crankcase has a sucient amount.
To check the oil level:
a. Make sure the engine is on a level surface.
b. Unscrew the oil ller/dipstick cap.
c. With a dry cloth, wipe the oil o of the stick on the
inside of the cap.
d. Insert the dipstick as if you were replacing the
cap and then remove it again. There should now be
oil on the stick. If there is no oil on the stick, or oil
only at the very end of the stick, you should add
oil until the engine crankcase is lled (see “Adding
Oil” portion of the “Maintenance” section).
e. The oil will be visible in the oil ll spout when full.
f. Be sure to replace the cap when nished checking
oil.
