Maintenance

Change Engine Oil

!
WARNING
DO NOT attempt any maintenance, adjustments or service
with engine and blade running. STOP engine and blade.
Disconnect spark plug wire and secure away from spark
plug. Engine and components are HOT. Avoid serious
burns, allow sufficient time for all components to cool.
1. Refer to the Engine Manual for proper oil specifications,
procedures and proper service intervals.
2. For the simplest/cleanest oil change, simply turn the
mower on its side to drain the oil, as shown. Drain the
oil through the dipstick tube (A, Figure 13) into a
container. Allow sufficient time for all the oil to drain.
Important: Drain the fuel tank before tipping the machine.
DO NOT tip the machine with the carburetor or spark plug
down. Oil from the crankcase will saturate the air filter and
cause the engine to be hard to start or not start at all. If
contamination does occur, the air filter will have to be
replaced.

3. Dispose of drain oil properly.
4. Fill the engine with oil as specified in the Engine Manual.
Do Not overfill.
