NOTE:Usea high quality detergent oil classified "For Service
SF,SO, SH, SJ" or higher. DO NOTuse special additives.

NOTE:Synthetic oil meeting ILSACGF-2,API certification
mark and API service symbol with "SJ/CF ENERGY
i CONSERVING"or higher, is an acceptable oil at all
temperatures. Useof synthetic oil does not alter required oil
change intervals.
SAE38: 40°rand higher (5°C and higher) is good for all
purpose use above 40°F, usebelow 40°F will cause hard
starting.
10W-30:0 to IO0°F (-18 to 38°C) is better for varying
temperature conditions. This viscosity improves cold weather
starting, but may increase oil consumption above 80°F
(27°C).
*Check oil level frequently at higher temperatures.
Synthetic 5W-38:-20 to 120°F(-30 to 40 °C) provides the
best protection at all temperatures as well as improved
starting with less oil consumption.
5W-30: 40°rand below (5°C and below) is recommendedfor
winter use and works best in cold conditions.
CheckingOilLevel
Oil level should be checked prior to each use or at least every
5 hours of operation. Keepoil levelmaintained.
1. Makesure pressure washer is on a level surface.
2. Remove oil dipstick and wipe dipstick with clean cloth.
Replaceand tighten dipstick. Removeand and check oil
