NEVER tip the buffer to the operator's LEFT side or oil will enter the carb and/or cylinder. Always check the oil level daily before starting the engine. If you ever hear that ringing noise when the engine is running, shut it off and check the oil level as it will most likely be low. Change the oil and filter after every 50 hours of operation. Use MOBIL 1 10w-30 full synthetic oil as it will not break down like conventional oil. Happy buffing!

Your dipstick should have dimples on it for the proper oil level. Your engine takes 1.5 quarts of oil (with oil filter change). http://www.eaglefloorsolutions.com/manuals/Honda%20GXV390%20Owner's%20Manual.pdf http://www.eaglefloorsolutions.com/manuals/Honda%20GXV390%20parts.pdf http://www.eaglefloorsolutions.com/manuals/Eagle%20Safety%20Awareness%20Manual.pdf If you need any repair parts and/or advice on the buffer, feel free to contact me anytime.
