Operating materials are
hazardous and could be
poisonous. Handle with care. Pay

Engine oil
Engine oil is identified by its quality
and its viscosity. Quality is more

selecting which engine oil to use. The oil quality ensures e.g. engine
cleanliness, wear protection and oil
aging control, whereas viscosity
grade gives information on the oil's
thickness over a temperature range.
