caution: failure to add oil to the engine before first use will damage the engine and

void the factory warranty. Engine oil is the key factor in engine performance. Do not
use Engine oil with additives. Do not use two-stroke gasoline-oil. Using these products
will shorten Engine life. See Specifications on page 3 for recommended oil type.

Check that all mounting nuts and bolts are tight.

Check oil level (See illustration below, left.) If needed, add oil. Unscrew the oil Dip
Stick (36) and wipe clean. Insert the Dip Stick back into the hole without screwing it
in. Remove it again and check the oil level. Full is indicated by oil on the Upper Level
