4. Remove the oil ﬁll cap/dipstick and check

oil level. The oil level needs to be within the

operating range. See Figure 7. If low, add oil of

the proper type, up to the full mark. If oil is above

the "F" or FULL mark, drain oil to reach proper

level. Reinstall the oil ﬁll cap/dipstick.

NOTE: To prevent extensive engine wear or damage,

always maintain the proper oil level in the

crankcase. Never operate the engine with

the oil level above the “F” or FULL mark, or

below the “L” or LOW mark on the dipstick.

Oil Sentry™

Some engines are equipped with an optional Oil

Sentry™ oil pressure switch. If the oil pressure drops

below an acceptable level, the Oil Sentry™ will either

shut oﬀ the engine or activate a warning signal,

depending on the application.

NOTE: Make sure the oil level is checked BEFORE

EACH USE and is maintained up to the FULL

or “F” mark on the dipstick. This includes

engines equipped with Oil Sentry™.

Change Oil and Oil Filter

Change the oil and oil ﬁlter annually or every 100

hours of operation (more frequently under severe

conditions). Reﬁll with service class SG, SH, SJ, or

higher oil as speciﬁed in the Viscosity Grades table

(Figure 2) on page 4. Always use a genuine Kohler oil

ﬁlter. Use chart below to determine part number to

order.

Figure 9. Oil Filter Location.

Change the oil while the engine is still warm. The oil

will ﬂow more freely and carry away more impurities.

Make sure the engine is level when ﬁlling, checking, or

changing the oil.
