3. Put the engine on a level surface, the lean angle of the engine should not exceed 20º, otherwise it could cause fuel spillage.
4. Four. The engine contains a spark arrestor. It may be against the law if you use the engine without the suppressor. Please inquire about local laws and regulations regarding this before using the engine.
5. The exhaust becomes very hot during and after using the engine. Be careful not to touch the exhaust while it is hot. Allow the engine to cool before storing it indoors.

CHECK BEFORE USE

1. Check oil level.
2. Check lubricant.

• The lubricant plays an important part that can affect the performance and life of the engine. 2-stroke engines and oils without detergent will damage the engine and should not be used.
• Before checking the lubricant, put the engine on a level surface. Use 4-stroke lubricant that meets the requirements for API service classification SF or SG. Always check the oil label to make sure it contains the letters SF or SG.

SAE10W-30 is generally recommended for use in all temperatures. Other viscosities indicated in the table can be used when the average temperature in your place is within the indicated range.

• Make sure the motor is on a level surface.
• Twist and remove the oil cap and wipe the cleat with a clean cloth
• Put the cleat back into the hole without turning the cap.
• If the oil level is below the mark designated as low level, fill with oil up to the high level indicated by the gauge.
• Turn and close the oil plug.
• Low speed gear oil (only for optional function) (Self-centrifugal clutch, 1/2 speed)
• Remove the oil filter cap and clean the dipstick.
• Reinsert the dipstick into the oil fill hole without turning it.
• If the oil level is low and needs to be refilled, be sure to use the recommended oil

ENGINE OIL ALERT SYSTEM (OPERATION FUNCTION)

The oil alert system is designed to prevent damage caused by insufficient oil in the crankshaft. When the oil level in the crankshaft drops below a safe level, the alert system will automatically stop the engine even if the switch is in the on position. If the engine dies and you cannot restart it, check the oil level before checking for other possible causes.

FUEL LEVEL.

• Check the fuel gauge, and fill the tank if the level is low. Do not refuel above the cap.
• Unleaded gasoline produces fewer engine failures and sparks, extending the life of the exhaust system.
• Never use contaminated or stale gasoline or mixed with oil. Prevent dirt, garbage, or water from entering the fuel tank.
• If the spark plug fails or the engine skips while operating at normal speed, change the brand of gasoline. If the fault persists, contact a workshop authorized.
