BE SURE THAT ALL INSTALLATION, OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR PROCEDURES ARE PERFORMED ONLY BY QUALIFIED INDIVIDUALS. FOR ENGINE powered equipment. 1.h. To avoid scalding, do not remove the radiator pressure cap when the engine is hot. 1.a. Turn the engine off before troubleshooting and maintenance work unless the maintenance work requires it to be running. ____________________________________________________ 1.b. Operate engines in open, well-ventilated areas or vent the engine exhaust fumes outdoors. ____________________________________________________ 1.c. Do not add the fuel near an open flame welding arc or when the engine is running. Stop the engine and allow it to cool before refueling to prevent spilled fuel from vaporizing on contact with hot engine parts and igniting. Do not spill fuel when filling tank. If fuel is spilled, wipe it up and do not start engine until fumes have been eliminated. ____________________________________________________ 1.d. Keep all equipment safety guards, covers and devices in position and in good repair.Keep hands, hair, clothing and tools away from V-belts, gears, fans and all other moving parts when starting, operating or repairing equipment. ____________________________________________________ 1.e. In some cases it may be necessary to remove safety guards to perform required maintenance. Remove guards only when necessary and replace them when the maintenance requiring their removal is complete. Always use the greatest care when working near moving parts. ___________________________________________________ 1.f. Do not put your hands near the engine fan. Do not attempt to override the governor or idler by pushing on the throttle control rods while the engine is running. ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS may be dangerous 2.a. Electric current flowing through any conductor causes localized Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF). Welding current creates EMF fields around welding cables and welding machines 2.b. EMF fields may interfere with some pacemakers, and welders having a pacemaker should consult their physician before welding. 2.c. Exposure to EMF fields in welding may have other health effects which are now not known. 2.d. All welders should use the following procedures in order to minimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit: 2.d.1. Route the electrode and work cables together - Secure them with tape when possible. 2.d.2. Never coil the electrode lead around your body. 2.d.3. Do not place your body between the electrode and work cables. If the electrode cable is on your right side, the work cable should also be on your right side. 2.d.4. Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close as possible to the area being welded. ___________________________________________________ 1.g. To prevent accidentally starting gasoline engines while turning the engine or welding generator during maintenance work, disconnect the spark plug wires, distributor cap or magneto wire as appropriate. 2.d.5. Do not work next to welding power source. Mar ‘95 ii ii SAFETY ARC RAYS can burn. ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. 3.a. The electrode and work (or ground) circuits are electrically “hot” when the welder is on. Do not touch these “hot” parts with your bare skin or wet clothing. Wear dry, hole-free gloves to insulate hands. 3.b. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulation. Make certain the insulation is large enough to cover your full area of physical contact with work and ground. In addition to the normal safety precautions, if welding must be performed under electrically hazardous conditions (in damp locations or while wearing wet clothing; on metal structures such as floors, gratings or scaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting, kneeling or lying, if there is a high risk of unavoidable or accidental contact with the workpiece or ground) use the following equipment: • Semiautomatic DC Constant Voltage (Wire) Welder. • DC Manual (Stick) Welder. • AC Welder with Reduced Voltage Control. 3.c. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the electrode, electrode reel, welding head, nozzle or semiautomatic welding gun are also electrically “hot”. 3.d. Always be sure the work cable makes a good electrical connection with the metal being welded. The connection should be as close as possible to the area being welded. 3.e. Ground the work or metal to be welded to a good electrical (earth) ground. 3.f. Maintain the electrode holder, work clamp, welding cable and welding machine in good, safe operating condition. Replace damaged insulation. 3.g. Never dip the electrode in water for cooling. 3.h. Never simultaneously touch electrically “hot” parts of electrode holders connected to two welders because voltage between the two can be the total of the open circuit voltage of both welders. 3.i. When working above floor level, use a safety belt to protect yourself from a fall should you get a shock. 3.j. Also see Items 6.c. and 8. 4.a. Use a shield with the proper filter and cover plates to protect your eyes from sparks and the rays of the arc when welding or observing open arc welding. Headshield and filter lens should conform to ANSI Z87. I standards. 4.b. Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistant material to protect your skin and that of your helpers from the arc rays. 4.c. Protect other nearby personnel with suitable, non-flammable screening and/or warn them not to watch the arc nor expose themselves to the arc rays or to hot spatter or metal. FUMES AND GASES can be dangerous. 5.a. Welding may produce fumes and gases hazardous to health. Avoid breathing these fumes and gases.When welding, keep your head out of the fume. Use enough ventilation and/or exhaust at the arc to keep fumes and gases away from the breathing zone. When welding with electrodes which require special ventilation such as stainless or hard facing (see instructions on container or MSDS) or on lead or cadmium plated steel and other metals or coatings which produce highly toxic fumes, keep exposure as low as possible and below Threshold Limit Values (TLV) using local exhaust or mechanical ventilation. In confined spaces or in some circumstances, outdoors, a respirator may be required. Additional precautions are also required when welding on galvanized steel. 5. b. The operation of welding fume control equipment is affected by various factors including proper use and positioning of the equipment, maintenance of the equipment and the specific welding procedure and application involved. Worker exposure level should be checked upon installation and periodically thereafter to be certain it is within applicable OSHA PEL and ACGIH TLV limits. 5.c. Do not weld in locations near chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors coming from degreasing, cleaning or spraying operations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with solvent vapors to form phosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritating products. 5.d. Shielding gases used for arc welding can displace air and cause injury or death. Always use enough ventilation, especially in confined areas, to insure breathing air is safe. 5.e. Read and understand the manufacturer’s instructions for this equipment and the consumables to be used, including the material safety data sheet (MSDS) and follow your employer’s safety practices. MSDS forms are available from your welding distributor or from the manufacturer. 5.f. Also see item 1.b. AUG 06 iii iii SAFETY WELDING SPARKS can cause fire or explosion. 6.a. Remove fire hazards from the welding area. If this is not possible, cover them to prevent the welding sparks from starting a fire. Remember that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas. Avoid welding near hydraulic lines. Have a fire extinguisher readily available. 6.b. Where compressed gases are to be used at the job site, special precautions should be used to prevent hazardous situations. Refer to “Safety in Welding and Cutting” (ANSI Standard Z49.1) and the operating information for the equipment being used. 6.c. When not welding, make certain no part of the electrode circuit is touching the work or ground. Accidental contact can cause overheating and create a fire hazard. 6.d. Do not heat, cut or weld tanks, drums or containers until the proper steps have been taken to insure that such procedures will not cause flammable or toxic vapors from substances inside. They can cause an explosion even though they have been “cleaned”. For information, purchase “Recommended Safe Practices for the Preparation for Welding and Cutting of Containers and Piping That Have Held Hazardous Substances”, AWS F4.1 from the American Welding Society (see address above). 6.e. Vent hollow castings or containers before heating, cutting or welding. They may explode. 6.f. Sparks and spatter are thrown from the welding arc. Wear oil free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes and a cap over your hair. Wear ear plugs when welding out of position or in confined places. Always wear safety glasses with side shields when in a welding area. 6.g. Connect the work cable to the work as close to the welding area as practical. Work cables connected to the building framework or other locations away from the welding area increase the possibility of the welding current passing through lifting chains, crane cables or other alternate circuits. This can create fire hazards or overheat lifting chains or cables until they fail. 6.h. Also see item 1.c. CYLINDER may explode if damaged. 7.a. Use only compressed gas cylinders containing the correct shielding gas for the process used and properly operating regulators designed for the gas and pressure used. All hoses, fittings, etc. should be suitable for the application and maintained in good condition. 7.b. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securely chained to an undercarriage or fixed support. 7.c. Cylinders should be located: • Away from areas where they may be struck or subjected to physical damage. • A safe distance from arc welding or cutting operations and any other source of heat, sparks, or flame. 7.d. Never allow the electrode, electrode holder or any other electrically “hot” parts to touch a cylinder. 7.e. Keep your head and face away from the cylinder valve outlet when opening the cylinder valve. 7.f. Valve protection caps should always be in place and hand tight except when the cylinder is in use or connected for use. 7.g. Read and follow the instructions on compressed gas cylinders, associated equipment, and CGA publication P-l, “Precautions for Safe Handling of Compressed Gases in Cylinders,” available from the Compressed Gas Association 1235 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202. FOR ELECTRICALLY powered equipment. 8.a. Turn off input power using the disconnect switch at the fuse box before working on the equipment. 8.b. Install equipment in accordance with the U.S. National Electrical Code, all local codes and the manufacturer’s recommendations. 8.c. Ground the equipment in accordance with the U.S. National Electrical Code and the manufacturer’s recommendations. Mar ‘95 iv SAFETY PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ Pour votre propre protection lire et observer toutes les instructions et les précautions de sûreté specifiques qui parraissent dans ce manuel aussi bien que les précautions de sûreté générales suivantes: Sûreté Pour Soudage A L’Arc 1. Protegez-vous contre la secousse électrique: a. Les circuits à l’électrode et à la piéce sont sous tension quand la machine à souder est en marche. Eviter toujours tout contact entre les parties sous tension et la peau nue ou les vétements mouillés. Porter des gants secs et sans trous pour isoler les mains. b. Faire trés attention de bien s’isoler de la masse quand on soude dans des endroits humides, ou sur un plancher metallique ou des grilles metalliques, principalement dans les positions assis ou couché pour lesquelles une grande partie du corps peut être en contact avec la masse. c. Maintenir le porte-électrode, la pince de masse, le câble de soudage et la machine à souder en bon et sûr état defonctionnement. d.Ne jamais plonger le porte-électrode dans l’eau pour le refroidir. e. Ne jamais toucher simultanément les parties sous tension des porte-électrodes connectés à deux machines à souder parce que la tension entre les deux pinces peut être le total de la tension à vide des deux machines. f. Si on utilise la machine à souder comme une source de courant pour soudage semi-automatique, ces precautions pour le porte-électrode s’applicuent aussi au pistolet de soudage. 2. Dans le cas de travail au dessus du niveau du sol, se protéger contre les chutes dans le cas ou on recoit un choc. Ne jamais enrouler le câble-électrode autour de n’importe quelle partie du corps. 3. Un coup d’arc peut être plus sévère qu’un coup de soliel, donc: a. Utiliser un bon masque avec un verre filtrant approprié ainsi qu’un verre blanc afin de se protéger les yeux du rayonnement de l’arc et des projections quand on soude ou quand on regarde l’arc. b. Porter des vêtements convenables afin de protéger la peau de soudeur et des aides contre le rayonnement de l‘arc. c. Protéger l’autre personnel travaillant à proximité au soudage à l’aide d’écrans appropriés et non-inflammables. 4. Des gouttes de laitier en fusion sont émises de l’arc de soudage. Se protéger avec des vêtements de protection libres de l’huile, tels que les gants en cuir, chemise épaisse, pantalons sans revers, et chaussures montantes. iv 6. Eloigner les matériaux inflammables ou les recouvrir afin de prévenir tout risque d’incendie dû aux étincelles. 7. Quand on ne soude pas, poser la pince à une endroit isolé de la masse. Un court-circuit accidental peut provoquer un échauffement et un risque d’incendie. 8. S’assurer que la masse est connectée le plus prés possible de la zone de travail qu’il est pratique de le faire. Si on place la masse sur la charpente de la construction ou d’autres endroits éloignés de la zone de travail, on augmente le risque de voir passer le courant de soudage par les chaines de levage, câbles de grue, ou autres circuits. Cela peut provoquer des risques d’incendie ou d’echauffement des chaines et des câbles jusqu’à ce qu’ils se rompent. 9. Assurer une ventilation suffisante dans la zone de soudage. Ceci est particuliérement important pour le soudage de tôles galvanisées plombées, ou cadmiées ou tout autre métal qui produit des fumeés toxiques. 10. Ne pas souder en présence de vapeurs de chlore provenant d’opérations de dégraissage, nettoyage ou pistolage. La chaleur ou les rayons de l’arc peuvent réagir avec les vapeurs du solvant pour produire du phosgéne (gas fortement toxique) ou autres produits irritants. 11. Pour obtenir de plus amples renseignements sur la sûreté, voir le code “Code for safety in welding and cutting” CSA Standard W 117.2-1974. PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ POUR LES MACHINES À SOUDER À TRANSFORMATEUR ET À REDRESSEUR 1. Relier à la terre le chassis du poste conformement au code de l’électricité et aux recommendations du fabricant. Le dispositif de montage ou la piece à souder doit être branché à une bonne mise à la terre. 2. Autant que possible, I’installation et l’entretien du poste seront effectués par un électricien qualifié. 3. Avant de faires des travaux à l’interieur de poste, la debrancher à l’interrupteur à la boite de fusibles. 4. Garder tous les couvercles et dispositifs de sûreté à leur place. 5. Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité dans la zone de soudage. Utiliser des lunettes avec écrans lateraux dans les zones où l’on pique le laitier.

RANGER 10,000 PLUS AND RANGER 10,000 & RANGER 10,000 A-2 A-2 INSTALLATION SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNING Do not attempt to use this equipment until you have thoroughly read the engine manufacturer’s manual supplied with your welder. It includes important safety precautions, detailed engine starting, operating and maintenance instructions, and parts lists. -----------------------------------------------------------------------ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. • Do not touch electrically live parts or electrode with skin or wet clothing. • Insulate yourself from work and ground • Always wear dry insulating gloves. -----------------------------------------------------------------------ENGINE EXHAUST can kill. • Use in open, well ventilated areas or vent exhaust outside. -----------------------------------------------------------------------MOVING PARTS can injure. • Do not operate with doors open or guards off. • Stop engine before servicing. • Keep away from moving parts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ See additional warning information at front of this operator’s manual. ----------------------------------------------------------MACHINE GROUNDING Because this portable engine driven welder or generator creates it’s own power, it is not necessary to connect it’s frame to an earth ground, unless the machine is connected to premises wiring (your home, shop, etc.). WARNING To prevent dangerous electric shock, other equipment to which this engine driven welder supplies power must: • be grounded to the frame of the welder using a grounded type plug, or be double insulated. Do not ground the machine to a pipe that carries explosive or combustible material. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ When this welder is mounted on a truck or trailer, it’s frame must be electrically bonded to the metal frame of the vehicle. Use a #8 or larger copper wire connected between the machine grounding stud and the frame of the vehicle. Where this engine driven welder is connected to premises wiring such as that in your home or shop, it’s frame must be connected to the system earth ground. See further connection instructions in the section entitled “Standby Power Connections”, as well as the article on grounding in the latest National Electrical Code and the local code. In general, if the machine is to be grounded, it should be connected with a #8 or larger copper wire to a solid earth ground such as a metal water pipe going into the ground for at least ten feet and having no insulated joints, or to the metal framework of a building which has been effectively grounded. The National Electrical Code lists a number of alternate means of grounding electrical equipment. A machine grounding stud marked with the symbol is provided on the front of the welder. SPARK ARRESTER Some federal, state, or local laws may require that gasoline engines be equipped with exhaust spark arresters when they are operated in certain locations where unarrested sparks may present a fire hazard. The standard muffler included with this welder does not qualify as a spark arrester. When required by local regulations, the K894-1 spark arrester must be installed and properly maintained. CAUTION An incorrect arrester may lead to damage to the engine or adversely affect performance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TOWING The recommended trailer for use with this equipment for road, in-plant and yard towing by a vehicle(1) is Lincoln’s K957-1. If the user adapts a non-Lincoln trailer, he must assume responsibility that the method of attachment and usage does not result in a safety hazard nor damage the welding equipment. Some of the factors to be considered are as follows: 1. Design capacity of trailer vs. weight of Lincoln equipment and likely additional attachments. 2. Proper support of, and attachment to, the base of the welding equipment so there will be no undue stress to the framework. RANGER 10,000 PLUS AND RANGER 10,000 INSTALLATION A-3 3.

(0-30.5m) 1 AWG 100-200 Ft. (30.5-61.0m) 1 AWG Kohler and Subaru Robin Models: For maximum rating, de-rate the welder output 3.5% for every 1000ft. (305m) above 3000ft. (914m). 200-250 Ft. (61.0-76.2m) 1/0 AWG ANGLE OF OPERATION Internal combustion engines are designed to run in a level condition which is where the optimum performance is achieved. The maximum angle of operation for the engine is 15 degrees from horizontal in any direction. If the engine is to be operated at an angle, provisions must be made for checking and maintaining the oil at the normal (FULL) oil capacity in the crankcase in a level condition. When operating at an angle, the effective fuel capacity will be slightly less than the specified 9 gallons. LIFTING The RANGER 10,000 PLUS AND RANGER 10,000 AND RANGER 10,000 weighs approximately 575 lbs. with a full tank of gasoline. A lift bail is mounted to the machine and should always be used when lifting the machine. Honda Model: For maximum rating, de-rate the welder output 3.5% for every 1000ft. (305m) above sea level. If operation will consistently be at altitudes above 5,000 ft. (1525m), a carburetor jet designed for high altitudes should be installed. This will result in better fuel economy, cleaner exhaust and longer spark plug life. It will not give increased power. Contact your local authorized engine service shop for high altitude jet kits that are available from the engine manufacturer. CAUTION Do not operate with a high altitude jet installed at altitudes below 5000 ft. This will result in the engine running too lean and result in higher engine operating temperatures which can shorten engine life.

The RANGER 10,000 (Honda 20 HP model) provides 10,000 watts peak. The front of the machine includes three receptacles for connecting the AC power plugs; one 50 amp 120/240 volt NEMA 14-50R receptacle and two 20 amp 120 volt NEMA 5-20R receptacles. Output voltage is within +/-10% at all loads up to rated capacity. All auxiliary power is protected by cuircuit breakers. CAUTION Do not connect any plugs that connect to the power receptacles in parallel. -----------------------------------------------------------------------Start the engine and set the “IDLER” control switch to the desired operating mode. Set the “CONTROL” to 10. Voltage is now correct at the receptacles for auxiliary power. 120/240 VOLT DUAL VOLTAGE RECEPTACLE The 120/240 volt receptacle can supply up to 38 amps of 240 volt power to a two wire circuit, up to 38 amps of 120 volts power from each side of a three wire circuit (up to 76 amps total). Do not connect the 120 volt circuits in parallel. Current sensing for the automatic idle feature is only in one leg of the three wire circuit as shown in the following column. 120 V 240 V 120 V* *Current Sensing for Automatic Idle. (Receptacle viewed from front of Machine) 120 V DUPLEX RECEPTACLES The 120V auxiliary power receptacles should only be used with three wire grounded type plugs or approved double insulated tools with two wire plugs. The current rating of any plug used with the system must be at least equal to the current load through the associated receptacle. MOTOR STARTING Most 1.5 hp AC single phase motors can be started if there is no load on the motor or other load connected to the machine, since the full load current rating of a 1.5 hp motor is approximately 20 amperes (10 amperes for 240 volt motors). The motor may be run at full load when plugged into only one side of the duplex receptacle. Larger motors through 2 hp can be run provided the receptacle rating as previously stated is not exceeded. This may necessitate 240V operation only. RANGER 10,000 PLUS AND RANGER 10,000 Extension Cord Length Recommendations (Use the shortest length extension cord possible sized per the following table.)

Do not put your hands near the engine cooling blower fan. If a problem cannot be corrected by following the instructions, take the machine to the nearest Lincoln Field Service Shop. ----------------------------------------------------------------------ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. • Do not touch electrically live parts or electrode with skin or wet clothing. • Insulate yourself from work and ground • Always wear dry insulating gloves. -----------------------------------------------------------------------ENGINE EXHAUST can kill. • Use in open, well ventilated areas or vent exhaust outside. -----------------------------------------------------------------------MOVING PARTS can injure. • Do not operate with doors open or guards off. • Stop engine before servicing. • Keep away from moving parts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ See additional warning information throughout this operator’s manual and the Engine manual as well. -----------------------------------------------------------Read the Safety Precautions in the front of this manual and the engine instruction manual before working on this machine. Keep all equipment safety guards, covers, and devices in position and in good repair. Keep hands, hair, clothing, and tools away from gears, fans, and all other moving parts when starting, operating, or repairing the equipment. CAUTION Make certain that the oil filler cap is securely tightened after checking or adding oil. If the cap is not tight, oil consumption can increase significantly which may be evidenced by white smoke coming from the exhaust. • OIL - Maintenance schedule for changing the oil and oil filter after break-in : KOHLER CH23S SUBARU ROBIN EH65 Oil 100 HRS. 100 HRS. Oil Filter 200 HRS. 200 HRS. HONDA GX620KI 6 Months 100 HRS. 1 Year or 200 HRS. The above schedule is for normal operating conditions. More frequent oil changes are required with dusty, high temperature and other severe operating conditions. Refer to the maintenance section of the Engine Owner's Manual for more information. NOTE: Engine life will be reduced if the oil and oil filter are not changed according to the manufacturer’s recommendation. ENGINE OIL CHANGE Drain the oil while the engine is warm to assure rapid and complete draining. • Remove the oil filler cap and dipstick. Remove the yellow cap from the oil drain valve and attach the flexible drain tube supplied with the machine. Push in and twist the drain valve counterclockwise. Pull the valve out and drain the oil into a suitable container. • Close the drain valve by pushing in and twisting clockwise. Replace the yellow cap. • Refill to the upper limit mark on the dipstick with the recommended oil. Tighten the oil filler cap securely. ENGINE OIL REFILL CAPACITIES Without oil filter replacement: • 1.7 qt. (1.6 liter)-Kohler • 1.5 qt. (1.4 liter)-Subaru Robin • 1.6 qt. (1.5 liter)-Honda GX620KI With oil filter replacement: • 2.0 qt. (1.9 liter)-Kohler • 1.6 qt. (1.6 liter)-Subaru Robin • 1.9 qt. (1.8 liter)-Honda GX620KI Routine Maintenance • At the end of each day’s use, refill the fuel tank to minimize moisture condensation in the tank. Running out of fuel tends to draw dirt into the fuel system. Also, check the crankcase oil level and add oil if indicated. RANGER 10,000 PLUS AND RANGER 10,000 D-2 MAINTENANCE Use 4-stroke motor oil that meets or exceeds the requirements for API service classification SG or SH. Always check the API SERVICE label on the oil container to be sure it includes the letters SG or SH. AIR CLEANER AND OTHER MAINTENANCE • Air Cleaner - With normal operating conditions, the maintenance schedule for cleaning and re-oiling the foam pre-filter is every 25 hours and replacement of the air cleaner filter every 100 hours. More frequent servicing is required with dusty operating conditions. Refer to the maintenance section of the Engine Owner’s Manual for more information. • Refer to the maintenance section of the Engine Owner’s Manual for the maintenance schedule, spark plug servicing, cooling system servicing, and fuel filter replacement. • Blow out the machine with low pressure air periodically. In particularly dirty locations, this may be required once a week. SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general, all-temperature use, -5 F to 104 F (-20 C to 40 C). See Engine Owner’s Manual for more specific information on oil viscosity recommendations. Wash your hands with soap and water after handling used oil. Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible with the environment. We suggest you take it in a sealed container to your local service station or recycling center for reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash, pour it on the ground or down a drain. OIL FILTER CHANGE 1. Drain the engine oil. D-2 • Output Ranger Selector and Polarity Switches: Switch contacts should not be greased. To keep contacts clean, rotate the switch through its entire range frequently. Good practice is to turn the handle from maximum to minimum setting twice each morning before starting to weld. 2. Remove the oil filter, and drain the oil into a suitable container. Discard the used oil filter. 3. Clean the filter mounting base, and coat the gasket of the new oil filter with clean engine oil. 4. Screw on the new oil filter by hand, until the gasket contacts the filter mounting base, then use an oil filter socket tool to tighten the filter an additional 1/2 to 7/8 turn. 5. Refill the crankcase with the specified amount of the recommended oil. Reinstall the oil filler cap. 6. Start the engine and check for oil filter leaks. 7. Stop the engine, and check the oil level. If necessary, add oil to the upper limit mark on the dipstick.
