used oil.

container by tipping the engine toward the oil filler neck,
keeping the spark plug end of the engine up.
CAUTION:
Used oil is a hazardous waste product
and must be disposed of properly. Do not discard
with household waste. Check with your local
authorities, service center, or dealer for safe
disposal/recycling facilities.
