to operating the snow thrower. Running the engine
with insufficient oil can cause serious engine
damage and void the engine warranty.

engine stopped.

clean. See Fig. 3-8.

Insert the cap/dipstick into the oil filler neck, but do not
screw it in.
3. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick. If the level is low, slowly
add oil until oil level registers between high (H) and low
(L), Fig. 3-8. Refer to the Engine Maintenance section for
correct oil viscosity and engine oil capacity.
NOTE: Do not overfill. Overfilling with oil may result in
engine smoking, hard starting or spark plug fouling.
