READ THE ENGINE MANUAL
Before using the pressure washer, you must ll the engine with the correct type and
quantity of lubricating oil. When checking and lling the engine with oil, make sure the
pressure washer is sitting on a level surface.
Use the Engine Operator’s manual during the following steps:
1. Remove the dipstick from the engine.
While the style may dier from the one
shown at the right, all will have indication
marks to show the correct oil level within
the crankcase.
2. The Engine Operator’s Manual
contains important information as to the
weight of oil for your given operating
conditions. Typically, SAE 15W-40 or
ISO 100 engine oil will suce for most
operating conditions. If you operate in
high temperatures or very dirty conditions,
consult the Engine Operator’s Manual for
oil recommendation.
3. Fill the crankcase with the correct type and quantity of oil, DO NOT overll. Place
the dipstick into the engine, but do not screw down (where applicable). Remove the
dipstick to verify the oil level. If the level is low, carefully add a small quantify of oil then
check the level once again with the dipstick.

4. Once the correct level is met, make sure the dipstick is tight within the engine block.
NOTICE
The low oil sensor (if equipped) will automatically stop the engine when the oil level falls
