ENGINE SETUP Proper setup of your Engine will get you going as soon as possible while making sure you and your equipment are safe and cared for.
ENGINE SETUP Adding Oil The Engine requires engine oil to operate properly. The Engine, when new from the package contains no oil in the crankcase*. You must add the proper amount of oil before operating the Engine for the first time. This amount is equal to the oil capacity of the engine crankcase: Model Number XP35HPE Engine Oil Capacity 2.54 qt. (2.4L) WARNING: Do not apply engine oils with additives or 2-stroke gasoline engine oils.
High Altitude Use At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be too rich. Performance will decrease and fuel consumption will increase. A very rich mixture will also foul the spark plug and cause hard starting. Operation at an altitude that differs from that at which this engine was certified, for extended periods of time, may increase emissions. The fuel system on this engine/equipment may be influenced by operation at higher altitudes.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE (CONTINUED) Checking the oil 1. Check the oil The Engine is equipped with an automatic shutoff to protect it from damage due to low oil. Nonetheless, you should check the oil level of the engine before each use to ensure that the engine crankcase has a sufficient amount. To check the oil level: a. Make sure the Engine is on a level surface. b. Remove dipstick. c. With a dry cloth, wipe the oil off of the stick. d.
Changing the oil Worn out or dirty oil does not cool the Engine properly and can lead to catastrophic engine damage. In addition to regular oil changes, it is necessary to drain the oil from the crankcase if it has become contaminated with water or dirt. 1. Remove drain plug Using a 12 mm hex wrench, unscrew the oil drain plug, which is located on the crankcase underneath the oil filler/dipstick cap. Allow all the oil to drain from the Engine. 2.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE (CONTINUED) Cleaning the air filter Routine maintenance of the air cleaner helps maintain proper airflow to the carburetor. Check that the air cleaner is free of excessive dirt after every use. Note: Improper maintenance may cause less air to enter the engine or dirty air to enter the engine causing overheating and engine wear. 1. Unclip filter cover Unhinge the clasps of the air filter cover. There is one clip on each side of the cover. 2.
4. Replace new filter Insert the filter, paper side down into the air filter compartment on top of the engine. 5.

Improper maintenance may cause reduced fuel economy, misfires, trouble starting, or damage to the spark plug threads. 1. Remove spark plug cap Pull on the spark plug cap to remove it. 2.
4. Measure plug gap Measure the plug gap with a gauge. The gap should be 0.7-0.8 mm (0.028-0.031 in). 5. Clean and re-gap If you are re-using the spark plug, use a wire brush to clean any dirt from around the spark plug base and then re-gap the spark plug. 6. Replace spark plug Screw the spark plug back into its place on the Engine using the spark plug wrench. 7. Replace spark plug cap Replace the spark plug cap.
