We recommend the use of high-quality detergent oils

for the engine. Use the chart to select the best viscosity
for the outdoor temperature range expected.

* Below 50°F (10°C) the use of SAE 30 will result in hard start-
ing.
** Above 80°F (27°C) the use of 10W30 may cause increased
oil consumption. Check oil level more frequently.
Synthetic oil meeting ILSAC GF-2, API certification
mark and API service symbol with "SJ/CF ENERGY
CONSERVING" or higher, is an acceptable oil at all
temperatures. Use of synthetic oil does not alter
required oil change intervals.
