carton.
NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase in the
future, use only high quality detergent oil rated with APt
service classification SF or SG, rated SAE 30 weight.
Select the oil's viscosity grade according to your expected
operating temperature.
colder = 32°F - warmer
5W30 i SAE30
J
Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30, etcr)improve
starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity oils will result
in increased .oil consumption when used above 32°F.
Check your e6gine oil level more frequently to avoid possi-
ble damage from running low on oil. Oil sump capacity is
20 ounces.

TEM PARTS SUCH AS THE CARBURETOR, FUEL FIL-
TER, FUEL HOSE OR TANK DURING STORAGE ALSO,
EXPERIENCE INDICATES THAT ALCOHOL-BLENDED
FUELS (CALLED GASOHOL OR USING ETHANOL OR
METHANOL) CAN ATTRACT MOISTURE WHICH LEADS
TO SEPARATION AND FORMATION OF ACIDS DURING
STORAGE. ACIDIC GAS CAN DAMAGE THE FUEL SYS-
TEM OF AN ENGINE WHILE IN STORAGE_ TO AVOID
ENGINE PROBLEMS, THE FUEL SYSTEM SHOULD BE
EMPTIED BEFORE STORAGE OF 30 DAYS OR
LONGER. SEE "STORAGE" ON PAGE 11, NEVER USE
ENGINE OR CARBURETOR CLEANER PRODUCTS IN
THE FUEL TANK OR PERMANENT DAMAGE MAY
OCCUR_
