6. If level is low, add only enough oil to raise level to filler
opening.
Note: Check the oil each time the mower is used or after
every 5 operating hours. Initially, change oil after the first 8
hours of operation; thereafter, change oil after every 50
hours of operation. More frequent oil changes are
required in dusty or dirty conditions.
Filling the Fuel Tank
Important
Never use methanol, gasoline containing
methanol, gasoline containing more than 10% ethanol,
gasoline additives, premium gasoline, or white gas because
engine fuel system damage could result.
1. Clean around the fuel tank cap and remove the cap from
the tank (Fig. 7).

2. Using unleaded gasoline, fill the fuel tank no higher
than to bottom of the filter screen. Do not over fill the
tank.
3. Install the fuel tank cap and wipe up any spilled
gasoline.
Danger
In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive. A fire or
explosion from gasoline can burn you and others
and can damage property.
• Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area,
when the engine is cold. Wipe up any gasoline
that spills.
• Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add
gasoline to the fuel tank until the level is 1 in.
(25 mm) below the bottom of the filler neck.
This empty space in the tank allows gasoline to
expand.
• Never smoke when handling gasoline, and stay
away from an open flame or where gasoline
fumes may be ignited by a spark.
• Store gasoline in an approved container and
keep it out of the reach of children. Never buy
more than a 30-day supply of gasoline.
• Always place gasoline containers on the ground
away from your vehicle before filling.
• Do not fill gasoline containers inside a vehicle or
on a truck or trailer bed because interior
carpets or plastic truck bed liners may insulate
the container and slow the loss of any static
charge.
• When practical, remove gas-powered equipment
from the truck or trailer and refuel the
equipment with its wheels on the ground.
• If this is not possible, then refuel such
equipment on a truck or trailer from a portable
container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser
nozzle.
• If a gasoline dispenser nozzle must be used, keep
the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel
tank or container opening at all times until
fueling is complete.
