How much oil do you put in? Mine did not come with a manual...well something written in a foreign language.

It really depended on what I was using it for, but usually around four drops.

I found somewhere in the literature that it recommends you use 2-3 drops of oil per 100 ml of distilled water. That's what I use. Hope that helps.

It depends on the strength of the oil and your desired results. I use Edens Garden from Amazon. I like 4 to 5 drops for 180 min. If I am congested or not feeling well I might use 6 or 8. You need to kind of play with what you like. I would never use more than 8. It's to strong.

We just added 2-3 drops of our do terra essential oil (on guard) and it worked just fine for us. We could immediately smell the on guard as soon as we turned it on and the mist came out of the diffuser. Amazing...

Check your oil level before starting. They may have not tightened the oil cap before shipping. Add only recommended oil if needed.

Yes, inside and out.... OK, on a more serious note ; yes, there is a small bottle of oil that comes with it. Depending on how long you intend to run it you may want to order a separate bottle of appropriate oil.

I have not used any oil with mine since I've had it. Not sure where you can get it.

Neither one of you answered the question. If you fill it to the mark, how much oil is that?

Hi Gene - this was backordered, and I got mine today. There was no damage at all due to shipping. I followed the "first time" instructions (add oil, install air filter, run unloaded i.e. with air tank valve open for 20 minutes) - that all went fine.It is working perfectly so far.Boy - its really strong and well built too. The manual is kind of crappy though - but its not rocket science.Rob

If yours didn't come with the required oil... A Synthetic motor oil is required, not sure what compressor/pump is accaptable

You need to put oil in. It will not work until the oil is in. I did not connect the battery. It is easy to pull start. Use the leads provided if you want to connect the battery. You have to remove the cover on the side of the unit to get to the battery.

Sorry I haven't looked at that yet. I was waiting for the first 100 hours of use before I change the oil.

It's a four stroke. So no oil in gas. And I'm using a air cooled small engine oil.

The manual that came with my new engine says that the engine oil capacity is 26-28 oz.

Piece of cake. Just get some extra bits, and keep the oil filled on the unit.

Several factors, what type of oil your using? how many miles on vehicle and the interval of oil changes?

Nowhere in the manual can I find a low oil shutdown feature. Nor on the engine itself.

I just start it once a month. Change oil every 6. It startes right up after a few pulls( to get the air out of the line)
