CONTROLS & FEATURES
Oil Alert
®
 Indicator
The Oil Alert
®
 system is designed to prevent engine damage caused by 
an insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. Before the oil level in the 
crankcase can fall below a safe limit, the Oil Alert indicator (red) comes 
on and the Oil Alert system automatically will stop the engine (the 
engine switch will remain in the ON position).
If the engine stops or the Oil Alert indicator (red) comes on when you 
turn the engine switch to START position or pull the starter grip, check 
the engine oil level (see page 44) before troubleshooting in other areas.
