    Use 4 cycle oil only. Please refer to your owner's manual for the correct amount. There should also be a dip stick with a hash line on it showing full or add on it. Never use car engine oil in a lawnmower as it is too thick and will blow out your valves or pistons.

    Straight 30W motor oil will be fine for your mower crank case. Do not use a multi grade like 5w30 or 10w30.
