a. Place the machine on a level place.
b. Warm up the engine for several minutes
and stop it.
c. With the engine stopped, check the oil lev-
el through the level window located at the
lower part of the left side crankcase cover.

Wait a few minutes until the oil level settles be-
fore checking.
d. The oil level should be between the maxi-
mum and minimum marks. If the level is
low, fill engine with sufficient oil to raise it
to the specified level.
CAUTION:
Be sure no foreign material enters the crank-
case.
