1. Place <strong>pressure</strong> <strong>washer</strong> on a flat, level surface.<br />
2. Cleanarea around oil fill and remove yellow oil fill cap.<br />
3. Using oil funnel (optional), slowly pour contents of<br />
provided oil bottle into oil fill opening (A) to the point of<br />
overflowing (B).<br />
NOTICE Improper treatment of <strong>pressure</strong> <strong>washer</strong> can<br />
damage it and shorten its life.<br />
• DO NOTattempt to crank or start the engine before it has been<br />
properly serviced with the re<strong>com</strong>mended oil. This may result in an<br />
enginefailure.<br />
4. Replaceoil fill cap and fully tighten.<br />
Add Fuel<br />
Fuel mustmeet these requirements:<br />
• Clean,fresh, unleaded gasoline.<br />
• A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91 RON). High altitude<br />
use, see High Altitude.<br />
• Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) or up to 15%<br />
MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.<br />
NOTICE Avoid <strong>pressure</strong> <strong>washer</strong> damage.<br />

Fill fuel tank outdoors.<br />
DONOT overfill tank. Allow spacefor fuel expansion.<br />
If fuel spills, wait until it evaporatesbefore starting engine.<br />
Keepfuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and<br />
other ignition sources.<br />
DONOT light a cigarette or smoke.<br />
To protect the fuel system from gum formation, mix in a fuel<br />
stabilizer when adding fuel. See Storage.All fuel is not the<br />
same. If you experiencestarting or performance problems<br />
after using fuel, switch to a different fuel provider or change<br />
brands. This engine is certified to operate on gasoline. The<br />
emission control system for this engine is EM (Engine<br />
Modifications).<br />
1. Cleanareaaround fuel fill cap, removecap.<br />
2. Slowly add regular unleadedfuel (C) to fuel tank (D). Be<br />
careful not to overfill. Allow about 1.5" (4 cm) (E) of tank<br />
spacefor fuel expansion.<br />

3. Install fuel cap and wait for any spilled fuel to evaporate.<br />
CAUTION! Alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or<br />
methanol) can attract moisture, which leadsto separation and<br />
formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the<br />
fuel system of an enginewhile in storage.<br />
To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be treated<br />
with a fuel preserveror emptied before storage of 30 days or<br />
longer. If adding a fuel preserver, fill the fuel tank with fresh<br />
fuel. If only partially filled, air in the tank will promote fuel<br />
deterioration during storage. If fuel preserver is not used,<br />
drain the fuel tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel<br />
lines and carburetor are empty. Usefresh fuel next season.<br />
SeeStorage for additional information.<br />
NEVERuse engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel<br />
tank as permanent damage may occur.
