Engine Oil Level Check

Check the engine oil level before each use, or
every 10 hours if operated continuously. Tip the
tiller on its carrying handle, on a level surface, with
the engine stopped and in an upright position.

1. Tip the tiller on its carrying handle as shown.

2. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe it

clean.

3. Insert and remove the dipstick without screwing

it into the filler opening. Check the oil level
shown on the dipstick.

4. If the oil level is low, fill to the edge of the oil

filler hole with the recommended oil (see
page 20). To avoid overfilling or underfilling, be
sure the engine is in a level position, as shown.

NOTICE

Running the engine with too little or too much
oil can cause engine damage.

5. Screw in the oil filler cap/dipstick securely.

Engine Oil Change

Drain the used oil while the engine is warm. Warm
oil drains quickly and completely.

1. Tip the tiller on its carrying handle.

2. Place a suitable container below the engine to

catch the used oil, then remove the oil filler
cap/dipstick. Grasp the tiller as shown and tip it
to drain the used oil through the oil filler
opening. Allow the used oil to drain completely.

NOTICE

Improper disposal of engine oil can be harmful
to the environment. If you change your own oil,
please dispose of the used oil properly. Put it in
a sealed container, and take it to a recycling
center. Do not discard it in a trash bin or dump
it on the ground.

3. With the engine resting on the carrying handle

on a level surface, fill to the edge of the oil filler
hole with the recommended oil (see page 20).
Do not overfill.

Engine oil capacity: 0.11 US qt (3.4 fl oz, 0.1
