Oil change:
Do not drain the oil when the engine is cold. As the oil cools, suspended waste particals settle on the
bottom of the oil pan. The waste particles are not removed with the draining cold oil. Drain the crankcase
with the engine stopped. Draining the crankcase with the oil warm will allow the waste particles that are
suspended in the oil to be drained properly.
Avoid contact with hot oil or components. Do not allow used oil to drain into the ground.
There is a drain hose stored behind the left hand
side flap.
- Place the end of the hose into a pan to catch
the oil.
- Remove the oil drain port plug (C) and let the
oil drain.
- Return the plug.
- Remove the oil cap (B) and add only approved
oil until the oil level reaches the full mark on the
dipstick (A).
Changing the oil filter:
When changing the oil, mount the new filter after
the used oil has been drained.
- Remove the filter (D) located beneath the yel-
low plate and clean where the new filter in-
stalls.
- Apply a thin coat of oil to the seal of the new fil-
ter and fill the filter with oil, then mount the filter
and tighten by hand.
Fill the oil filter(s) with clean lubricating oil before installation onto the engine. Lack of engine lubrication
while the filter(s) are pumped full of oil is harmful to the engine.
