Section 1

Safety and General Information

Oil Recommendations

Using the proper type and weight of oil in the

crankcase is extremely important, as is checking oil

daily, and changing oil regularly. Failure to use the

correct oil, or using dirty oil, causes premature engine

wear and failure. Synthetic oil is recommended for

use in LPG-fueled engines because there is less

oxidation or thickening, and deposit accumulation on

intake valves is substantially reduced.

Oil Type

Use high-quality detergent oil of API (American

Petroleum Institute) service class SG, SH, SJ

or higher. Select the viscosity based on the air

temperature at the time of operation as shown below.

NOTE: Using other than service class SG, SH, SJ or

higher oil, or extending oil change intervals

longer than recommended, can cause engine

damage.

A logo or symbol on oil containers identiﬁes the API

service class and SAE viscosity grade. See Figure 1-3.

Fuel Recommendations

WARNING: Explosive Fuel!

Gasoline is extremely ﬂammable and its vapors can

explode if ignited. Store gasoline only in approved

containers, in well ventilated, unoccupied buildings,

away from sparks or ﬂames. Do not ﬁll the fuel tank

while the engine is hot or running, since spilled fuel

could ignite if it comes in contact with hot parts or

sparks from ignition. Do not start the engine near

spilled fuel. Never use gasoline as a cleaning agent.

General Recommendations

Purchase gasoline in small quantities and store

in clean, approved containers. A container with a

capacity of 2 gallons or less with a pouring spout is

recommended. Such a container is easier to handle

and helps eliminate spillage during refueling.

Do not use gasoline left over from the previous

season, to minimize gum deposits in your fuel system

and to insure easy starting.

Do not add oil to the gasoline.

Do not overﬁll the fuel tank. Leave room for the fuel to

expand.

Fuel Type

For best results, use only clean, fresh, unleaded

gasoline with a pump sticker octane rating of 87 or

higher. In countries using the Research method, it

should be 90 octane minimum.

Unleaded gasoline is recommended, as it leaves less

combustion chamber deposits. Leaded gasoline may

be used in areas where unleaded is not available

and exhaust emissions are not regulated. Be aware

however, that the cylinder head will require more

frequent service.

Gasoline/Alcohol blends

Gasohol (up to 10% ethyl alcohol, 90% unleaded

gasoline by volume) is approved as a fuel for Kohler

engines. Other gasoline/alcohol blends are not

approved.

Gasoline/Ether blends

Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) and unleaded

gasoline blends (up to maximum of 15% MTBE by

volume) are approved as a fuel for Kohler engines.

Other gasoline/ether blends are not approved.

Figure 1-3. Oil Container Logo.

Refer to Section 6 - “Lubrication System” for detailed

oil check, oil change, and oil ﬁlter change procedures.

*Use of synthetic oil having 5W-20 or 5W-30 rating is

acceptable, up to 4°C (40°F).

**Synthetic oils will provide better starting in extreme cold

below -23°C (-10°F).

Safety and General Information

Periodic Maintenance

WARNING: Accidental Starts!

Disabling engine. Accidental starting can cause severe injury or death. Before working on the engine

or equipment, disable the engine as follows: 1) Disconnect the spark plug lead(s). 2) Disconnect negative (-)

battery cable from battery.

Maintenance Schedule

These required maintenance procedures should be performed at the frequency stated in the table. They should

also be included as part of any seasonal tune-up.

Storage

If the engine will be out of service for two months or

more, use the following storage procedure.

1. Clean the exterior surfaces of the engine.

2. Change the oil and oil ﬁlter while the engine is

still warm from operation. See “Change Oil and

Oil Filter” in Section 6.

3. The fuel system must be completely emptied,

or the gasoline must be treated with a stabilizer

to prevent deterioration. If you choose to

use a stabilizer, follow the manufacturers

recommendations, and add the correct amount

for the capacity of the fuel system. Fill the fuel

tank with clean, fresh gasoline. Run the engine

for 2-3 minutes to get stabilized fuel into the

carburetor.

To empty the system, run the engine until the tank

and system are empty.

4. Remove the spark plug. Add one tablespoon of

engine oil into the spark plug hole. Install the

plug, but do not connect the plug lead. Crank the

engine two or three revolutions.

5. Remove the spark plug. Cover the spark plug

hole with your thumb, and turn the engine

over until the piston is at the top of its stroke.

(Pressure against thumb is greatest.) Reinstall

the plug, but do not connect the plug lead.

6. Store the engine in a clean, dry place.

Frequency Maintenance Required Refer to:

• Fill fuel tank.

• Check oil level.

• Check air cleaner for dirty1, loose, or damaged parts.

• Check air intake and cooling areas, clean as necessary1.
