as level as possible before checking the
oil.
2. Remove dipstick (Figure 9, (3)) and
wipe with clean cloth.
3. Fully reinsert dipstick.
4. Remove dipstick. The oil level should
be between upper (Figure 9, (4)) and
lower (Figure 9, (5)) lines on the
dipstick.
5. Add oil if necessary. See Adding
Engine Oil on page 33.
6. Fully reinsert dipstick.
Adding Engine Oil
1. NOTICE: Prevent dirt and debris from
contaminating engine oil. Carefully
clean the dipstick and the surrounding
area before you remove the cap.
Remove the yellow oil filler port cap
from filler port (Figure 9, (1)) and fill
with engine oil.
2. Fill with oil to the upper limit
(Figure 9, (4)) on the dipstick
(Figure 9, (3)). NOTICE: NEVER
overfill the engine with engine oil.
