Service Engine Crank Case Oil
1. Your Eskimo Propane Ice Auger is powered by a 4-stroke engine. Oil must be added to the crank case before operation of the
auger. Add 3.7 oz (110 ml) of 0W-40 engine oil before you start the engine.
2. To add oil to engine, connect the auger to the power head. Put the power head in a horizontal position. SEE FIGURE 2.
3. Remove the oil filler cap and make note of the oil fill level indicator on the cap.
4. Slowly pour 3.7 oz. (110 ml) of 0W-40 engine oil into the crankcase.
5. Replace the oil filler cap and secure.
6. Make sure you check the oil level before each outing. Do not add more than the recommended amount of oil. Overfill of the
crank case oil can cause excessive leakage and engine damage.
7. To change the crankcase oil, remove the oil filler cap and turn the engine over. Drain oil into an approved container and
dispose of used oil appropriately.
NOTE: Propane fuel will make the oil appear a milky white or gray color. This is normal for propane powered engines.
