EnginE Oil REcOmmEndatiOns
do not remove the radiator pressure cap while
the engine is hot or serious burns from boiling
liquid or steam could result.
*
*
The unit has been filled with “break in” engine oil
at the factory. Use a high-quality detergent oil clas-
sified “For Service CC, SD, SE or SF.” Detergent oils
keep the engine cleaner and reduce carbon deposits.
Use oil having the following SAE viscosity rating,
based on the ambient temperature range anticipated
before the next oil change:
dangER
ethylene glycol base antifreeze is poisonous.
do not use your mouth to siphon coolant from
the radiator, recovery bottle or any container.
wash your hands thoroughly after handling.
Never store used antifreeze in an open con-
tainer because animals are attracted to the
smell and taste of antifreeze even though it is
poisonous to them.

cOOlant
do not use any chromate base rust inhibitor
with ethylene glycol base antifreeze, or chro-
mium hydroxide (“green slime”) will form and
cause overheating. engines that have been
operated with a chromate base rust inhibitor
must be chemically cleaned before adding eth-
ylene glycol base antifreeze. Using any high
silicate antifreeze boosters or additives also
will cause overheating. we also recommend
that you do NoT use any soluble oil inhibitor
for this equipment.
◆
*
Use a mixture of half low silicate, ethylene glycol base
antifreeze and half soft water. Use only soft water and
only low silicate antifreeze. If desired, you may add a
high quality rust inhibitor to the recommended cool-
ant mixture. When adding coolant, always add the
recommended 50-50 mixture.
Coolant Capacity..................................1.80 U.S. gallons
