CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
Inspecting the Oil Level Window
1. Stop the engine and allow it to cool.
2.
Set the unit on a flat, level surface
, such as a workbench or
table. The cutting head shield should hang over the edge so that
the engine is level (Fig. 19).
NOTE:
Failure to keep the engine level may cause the oil to overfill.
3. Look into the oil level window; use a flashlight if necessary.
The
oil level should fill the window approximately halfway
(Fig.
20). If the oil level is too low, add oil. Refer to
Adding Oil
.
Adding Oil
1. Clean the area around the oil fill plug (Fig. 20) to prevent debris
from entering the oil fill hole.
2. Unscrew the oil fill plug.
3. Add oil to the oil fill hole until the oil level is approximately
halfway up the oil level window (Fig. 20).
NOTE: DO NOT
overfill the crankcase.
4. Wipe up any oil that may have spilled.
5. Reinstall the oil fill plug.
NOTE:
Make sure the O-ring is in place on the oil fill plug (Fig. 20).
WARNING:
OVERFILLING THE CRANKCASE MAY
CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY. Check the oil level
before each use. The importance of maintaining the proper
oil level cannot be overemphasized.

4. Use a clean cloth to clean the inner reel, outer spool and spool
cover (Fig. 18).

spool (Fig. 18). Push the spool cover onto the outer spool until
