Remove the oil-level-check bolt
and washer, and see whether the
oil level is at the edge of the bolt
hole.

Place a suitable container below the reduction case to catch the
used oil, then remove the filler bolt, oil-level-check bolt and
washers.

With the engine in a level position, fill oil until it starts to flow
out the check bolt hole with the recommended oil (see page

).

Reinstall the oil-level-check bolt, filler bolt and new washers,
and tighten them securely.

Drain the used oil while the engine is warm. Warm oil drains
quickly and completely.

Drain the used oil completely into the container by tipping the
engine toward the oil-level-check bolt hole.

Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible
with the environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed
container to your local recycling center or service station for
reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash or pour it on the ground
or down a drain.

Running the engine with a low reduction case oil level can cause
reduction case damage.

If the oil level is below the check
bolt hole, remove the filler bolt
and washer. Add oil until it starts
to flow out the check bolt hole
with the recommended oil (see
page

).

Screw in the filler cap/dipstick securely.

Running the engine with a low reduction case oil level can cause
reduction case damage.

the oil level, insert and remove the dipstick without screwing it
into the filler hole.

Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible
with the environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed

or down a drain.

Allow the used oil to drain completely, then reinstall the drain
plug and a new washer, and tighten it securely.

Place a suitable container below the reduction case to catch the
used oil, then remove the oil filler cap/dipstick, the drain plug
and washer.

A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing
engine performance. If you operate the engine in very dusty areas,
clean the air filter more often than specified in the MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULE.

Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged air
filter, will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
This type of damage is not covered by the Distributor’s Limited
Warranty.

Remove the air cleaner cover and inspect the filter elements.
Clean or replace dirty filter elements. Always replace damaged
filter elements. If equipped with an oil-bath air cleaner, also check
the oil level.

Refer to pages

for instructions that apply to the air cleaner

and filter for your engine type.
