Draining Oil
Improper disposal of engine oil can be harmful to the environment. After changing
oil dispose of the used oil properly. Put it in a sealed container, and take it to a
recycling center. Do not discard it in a trash bin, dump it on the ground, or pour it
down the drain.
Drain oil while the engine is warm to assure rapid and complete draining.
1.
Turn the engine switch and fuel tank cap vent lever to the OFF position to reduce the
possibility of fuel leakage.
2.
Loosen the cover screw and remove the maintenance cover
3.
Place a suitable container next to the engine to catch the used oil.
4.
Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick, and drain the oil into the container by tipping the
engine toward the oil filler neck.
5.3.2
Replenishing Engine Oil
1.
With the engine in a level position, fill to the upper limit of the oil filler neck (capacity:
0.26 US quart) with the recommended oil (SAE 10W 30).
2.
Reinstall the oil filler cap/dipstick securely.
3.
Reinstall the maintenance cover/battery pack assembly, taking care to redo the electrical
connections, and tighten the cover screw securely (see Section 5.2).
Wash your hands with soap and water after handling used oil
