Lawn Mower Dipstick

A dipstick is a part that is used to measure the amount of oil in various yard and garden equipment. It allows a person to reach an otherwise inaccessible space by inserting and then removing the dipstick. At that point, checking how much of the dipstick is covered in oil will let a person know whether it needs to be topped off. Over time, these tools can rust, break, or crack and will need to be replaced.Take a look at the dipstick for any damage before making a replacement of the part. If it needs to be replaced, it should be done while the lawnmower or other tool is cooled down. Unscrew the broken or damaged dipstick and take it out of the oil tank. Simply insert the new dipstick and screw it on before checking the oil level and using the machine again.This dipstick is a replacement part for Tecumseh, Cub Cadet, Toro, Briggs & Stratton, Troy-Bilt, Lawn-Boy, and Craftsman lawnmowers, wood chippers, and pressure washers. It comes as an individual component. It is a genuine OEM product that is sourced directly from the manufacturer.

This oil dipstick is designed to fit a number of engines that power lawn and landscaping equipment, including tillers, lawn mowers, snowblowers, leaf blowers, generators, and chippers. The dipstick sits prominently toward the front of the engine and has a yellow cap that cannot be mistaken for the gas cap, which is usually black. As prominent as it is, the dipstick is all too often disregarded despite being one of the most important parts of any small engine. The dipstick provides information about the oil in the engine's crankcase in two ways. First, it reveals the level of oil in the crankcase. If there is too little oil, the user runs the risk of the engine overheating and being ruined. If the oil is so black or dark brown, the stick marking cannot be seen, and it should be changed. Because of their design, dipsticks are occasionally bent off the stick to come apart from the cap. In either case, the stick should be replaced. This OEM dipstick is certified to be a perfect replica for the part that came with the small engine. This dipstick is compatible with a number of small engines, including Briggs & Stratton, Craftsman, Wheel Horse, Cub Cadet, Tecumseh, Exmark, Toro, Lawn-Boy, Simplicity, Jenn Air, MTD, Maytag, and MasterCut.
