BEFORE START OF OPERATION
Inspection and Rell of Engine Oil
– Perform the following procedure, with the engine cooled down.
– While keeping the engine level, remove the oil gauge, and conrm that the oil is lled within the upper and lower limit marks.
When the oil is in short in such a way that the oil gauge touches the oil only by its tip, in particular with the oil gauge remaining inserted in the
crankcase without screwing-in (Fig. 1), rell new oil near the port (Fig. 2).
– For reference, the oil rell time is about 10h (10 times or 10 tanks of oil rell).
– If the oil changes in color or mixes with dirt, replace it with new one. (For the interval and method of replacement, refer to P 15)
Recommended oil: SAE 10W-30 oil of API Classication, Class SF or higher (4-stroke engine for automobile)
Oil volume: Approx. 0.08 L
Note: If the engine is not kept upright, oil may go into around the engine, and may be relled excessively.
If the oil is lled above the limit, the oil may be contaminated or may catch re with white.
Point 1 in Replacement of Oil “Oil Gauge”
– Remove dust or dirt near the oil rell port, and detach the oil gauge.
– Keep the detached oil gauge free of sand or dust. Otherwise, any sand or dust adhering to the oil gauge may cause irregular oil circulation
or wear on the engine parts, which will result in troubles.
–As an example to keep the oil gauge clean, it is recommended to insert the oil gauge on its knob side into the engine cover, as shown in
Fig.3.
If oil adheres around
this tip, rell new oil.

Point 2 in Replacement of Oil: “If oil spills out”
–If oil spills out between the fuel tank and engine main unit, the oil is sucked into through the cooling air intake port, which will contaminate
the engine. Be sure to wipe out spilt oil before start of operation.
REFUELING
Handling of Fuel
It is necessary to handle fuel with utmost care. Fuel may contain substances similar to solvents. Refueling must be performed in a sufciently
ventilated room or in the open air. Never inhale fuel vapor, and keep fuel away from you. If you touch fuel repeatedly or for a long time, the skin
becomes dry, which may cause skin disease or allergy. If fuel enters into the eye, clean the eye with fresh water. If your eye remains still irritated,
consult your doctor.
Storage Period of Fuel
Fuel should be used up within a period of 4 weeks, even if it is kept in a special container in a well-ventilated shade.
If a special container is not used or if the container is not covered, fuel may deteriorate in one day.
STORAGE OF MACHINE AND REFILL TANK
–Keep the machine and tank at a cool place free from direct sunshine.
– Never keep the fuel in the cabin or trunk.
Fuel
The engine is a four-stroke engine. Be sure to use an automobile gasoline (regular gasoline or premium gasoline).
Points for Fuel
–Never use a gasoline mixture which contains engine oil. Otherwise, it will cause excessive carbon accumulation or mechanical troubles.
– Use of deteriorated oil will cause irregular startup.
Refueling
WARNING: INFLAMMABLES STRICTLY PROHIBITED
Gasoline used: Automobile gasoline (unleaded gasoline)
– Loosen the tank cap a little so that there will be no difference in atmospheric
pressure.
– Detach the tank cap, and refuel, discharging air by tilting the fuel tank so
that the refuel port will be oriented upward. (Never rell fuel full to the oil rell
port.)
–Wipe well the periphery of the tank cap to prevent foreign matter from
entering into the fuel tank.
–After refueling, securely tighten the tank cap.
• If there is any aw or damage on the tank cap, replace it.
• The tank cap is consumable, and therefore should be renewed every two to
three years.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
1. Replacement of engine oil
Deteriorated engine oil will shorten the life of the sliding and rotating parts to a great extent. Be sure to check the period and quantity of
replacement.
DANGER
• Before inspection and maintenance, stop the engine and allow it to cool. Remove also the spark plug and plug cap.
- If inspection or maintenance is attempted immediately after engine stop or with the plug cap left attached, the operator may suffer burn
or an accident due to careless startup.
• After inspection and maintenance, be sure to conrm that all parts are assembled. Then, proceed to operation.
DANGER
• In general, the engine main unit and engine oil still remain hot just after the engine is stopped. In replacement of oil, conrm that the
engine main unit and engine oil are sufciently cooled down. Otherwise, there may remain a risk of scald. In addition just after of the
engine stopping because oil does not nish to return in the oil case, becomes cause of the oil inserting too much
• If the oil lled above the limit, it may be contaminated or may catch re with white smoke.
Interval of replacement: Initially, every 20 operating hours, and subsequently every 50 operating hours
Recommended oil: SAE10W-30 oil of API Classication SF Class or higher (4-stroke engine oil for automobile)
In replacement, perform the following procedure.
1) Conrm that the tank cap is tightened securely.
2) Detach the oil gauge.
- Keep the oil gauge free from dust or dirt.
3) Use the provided oil extraction bottle to remove the old oil from the oil
